i watched support the girls and it was pretty good



can't imagine working in such an environment

anand patwardhan's reason - fighting fundamentalism in india





pretty startling how hindutva under modi aligns with white supremacy. they don't call themselves aryans for nothing





like MAGA, they're aggrieved at the rise of the less fortunate (dalits) and feel they are now the oppressed





but there's always common ground hindutva has roots in european fascism. it's a reactionary defense of the caste system deeply engrained in indian society



the sleep of reason produces monsters

Great pick! I was about to complain and lament that I don't see enough support for this brilliant film by Jia Zhangke.

she went to prison for 5 yrs and he's all 'what about me'

also our new national anthem YMCA is featured

i missed jia, don't know when i lost track of him. performers, pop songs, 3 gorges, ufos...



i'm really enjoying it
