NAZI FACES ARE ABOUT TO MELT

I dunno what you're doing with your evening, but in times of great fascism I go to the movies that melt their faces.

You could do what I do and just watch anything whenever.

If they don't want to watch, I'm totally fine with watching what they want.

But the number of times that they cannot stop watching: an appreciable percentage.

(my movie no one will watch: NETWORK)

A slogan that should be revived is 'The Personal is ALWAYS political."

If you can become a pawn to the state, made into a political bargaining chip, your life is political to SOMEONE.

FIGHT LIKE IT.

As a parent of a child with autism, this isn’t just politics, it’s personal.

The federal gov’t firing special-needs staff in the Dept. of Education is a direct blow to families like mine. Our kids deserve better.

In Congress, I’ll fight to protect & fully fund special education.

Every video you share of resistance, every bit of video a new set of eyes sees:

IT'S CRUCIAL to getting the word out.

You are taking the place of MSM because it has FAILED US.

BE THE EYES OF THE RESISTANCE.

Ohhhh that's smart. I'm off the video games for now, but they're so cathartic.

Protesters in an airport after Trump's Muslim ban went into effect.

Right: Jewish boy on his father's shoulders

Both are looking at each other, all four are holding signs of protest against the ban.

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

Spielberg watched every single German Expressionist movie and every noir movie, picked up their lighting and staging and moved it wholesale into color.

Really fucking amazing.

This whole movie is so well-crafted.

It's got some very unpleasant tropes in it, but from a perspective of "craft," it's one of the best from the first scene.

AND NAZI FACES MELT. (bonus)
