    To me it was 9/11 that started the insanity… Either way, if you look at movies from the 80s and movies from today, you clearly see the humanity lacking from todays movies.

      Let’s be real- it was the US’s response to 9/11 that started the insanity. There was absolutely a way forward, but no- some shitheads gave the Americans a bloody nose and the US decided to try to stop the bleeding by stabbing itself in the heart for two decades while threatening anyone who pointed out that this was a bad idea.

        Legit but let’s be even more real. It’s the US’s imperial insanity that caused 911. That insanity has always been fundamental to USA from its founding.

      Yeah its been a wild ride since 2001. I’m not even American but it felt like the whole world kinda shifted gears after that.
