This is a constant issue with trump and his supporters, their being 'conned' and convinced how much he's 'on their side' against some big bad corrupt establishment, and their not hearing people trying to help them understand that. This movie is useful at showing a similar story of people falling for that that might help. Below is a link to rent or buy the movie on youtube.

Pantie pissing TDS aside, an excellent movie.
The problem with TDOSS and his ilk is that they are the boot-licking quislings of the left's authoritarianism.
The movie below highlights their insidious infiltration of America's sacred institutions and how they hide their demands for complete and total acquiescence behind the university, the media, the corrupt government, and social activism such as BLM and the Pro-Abortion lobby. It also shows the appropriate response to these enemies of our Nation.

There's some overlap, and it is a fantastic movie. "Network" is another movie that shows the "Trump spirit" existed a long time ago.
The difference is, stop reading here if you don't want me to spoil the ending, when Andy Griffith's character was caught admitting that he thinks his followers are fools, the network executives pull the plug and he has no path back to relevance. That's not at all like today for two reasons. One, Trump has said many times that his followers are basically fools, and they either fail to understand what he's really saying, or think that he's talking about someone else, not them. Two, with the internet, once you reach a certain critical mass of name recognition, you can always find another platform and you can never really be canceled.

Lol.
1) that movie is making fun of conservatives, not liberals,
2) it is toxic when anyone sees themselves as the one independent agent in a world of automatons and NPCs. Talk about thinking you're the smartest person in the room!
1. No one cares what you think.
2. RRP thinks you're a buffoon.
3. Whine more
This is a pretty good description of California democrats as voiced on air by a couple of their own.
"I’m not saying I'm in favor of it," Uygur replied. "I’m telling you what’s, like, if they, the Democratic Party, said, ‘We anoint Kamala Harris,’ a giant percentage of Democrats in California would go, ‘Yes! We obey. We will take the loyalty oath. It doesn’t matter how bad she is!’"

The lead actor in that movie, and you only speak for yourself and the DOOF. In fact, there's a great documentary on you two that I saw long ago, one of the most factual and realistic ones every produced.

LOL. Liberals are feeling the burn of the ultimate con by their own party and MSM so your finger pointing is as lifeless as today's Jags game.

It seems that way, especially when a bunch of people do something you don't like and don't understand, but it's not that way.
Just because someone voted Kamala doesn't mean they're OK with Dems anointing her with no primary this year. Just because they would support Kamala running for governor doesn't mean they have no independent thoughts.
This movie is meant to be a provocative joke. It is absolutely not something to build a world view around.

Dude it is not a movie, it is a news cast. What the begeebus you talking about? Also, it seems you know the intent of this how? Clairvoyance?
Who would build a world view around one media news cast? You AI just hallucinated an answer for you right?

Great movie. Andy Griffith was a really good actor.
Ironically, it was this dark and manipulative character which bought his big break into acting. Completely opposite of the down-to-earth characters he became famous for portraying.
Btw, I read a long article on him after his death and people around him described his true personality as closer to the character of Lonesome Rhodes than Andy Griffith.

I was still on the subject of the movie "They live" first mentioned by FSG.

And the problem with your commentary is that you still believe there's a difference between the right and left in this country, when they are really just two wings of the same corrupt establishment bird.

My reply incorporates both.
You mentioned the young turk lady's commentary because fsg's post about the movie reminded you of it.
You were comparing the aliens in the movie to the young turk lady's perception of the California Democrats.
And I was responding that no one is like the aliens in that movie.
Stop blaming me for analogies you made.

And so do you, all while claiming to be

If there were actual hardcore Democrat apologists on this board you'd see me going after them as well. I've already gone after TDoss a bit here but I'm still trying to figure out where he's coming from before I go harder.
I'm a hardcore never-Trumper centrist.
