Maybe, but I won’t believe anything Meta says about their actions being legal until an EU court comments on it. I just know Meta has been in hot water with EU a few times for collecting data they shouldn’t.

Except the EU has already told them fuck off, or they will shut down their EU operations. Did they resolve that?

It took me a bit to figure out what the hell was meant by Trump’s post. For anyone not in the know: he’s just pulled Stefanik’s nomination for U.N. Ambassador.

Well, thanks for the new point of view. I might re-watch it at some point in life- if I do, I’ll try it with this mind set.

I appreciate the perspective! Gotta say though, Jesus that’s some deep-level dark comedy that I just don’t understand. I was watching it as more of an art piece, and less of a commentary. I still don’t like it, but I never thought of it in this light.

“There Will be Blood” was one of the most drab, boring, washed out, and damn near unwatchable movies of all time, yet everyone claims it’s a masterpiece. It’s just a story of a man becoming richer than god, and going off the deep-end, culminating in a scene where his adopted kid tells him how much they hate him, and him murdering someone in a misguided fit of rage. None of the characters are relatable, redeeming or interesting. The script has like a grand total of 1000 words across the entire 2.5 hour run time, and none of it is particularly compelling. What a snooze fest.
