3/ This is one big source of intellectual / rhetorical derp in NRx adjacent spaces: they look at commerce which serves real working families very well (e.g. highway rest stop with gas and fast food) and contrast it to some mythical golden age where everyone ate goose & truffles

4/ It's the right wing version of limousine liberalism. Zero knowledge of the people who work in Hollywood as camermen, directors, writers, special effects people, or stunt men. Zero knowledge of the financing, or of the billions who enjoy the products. Just a haughty >>>

7/ American's DON'T dislike the product. People love Joker and Inception and a dozen Wes Anderson movies and Cohen Brothers films. There is so much great content out there. You're looking at $100 million studio films and turning up your nose. Tedious. https://twitter.com/PhilthyPhil2012/status/1302982034885758979 …
