  1. The main problem with the right wing right now is that they don't have any coherent ideology and vision of the future to move forward to after the previous ones failed. Very sad. The problems in the US are pretty obvious and there are obvious solutions to them but nobody (left or right) wants to talk about it because they are busy with other topics. There used to be neoliberalism and then neoconservatism and now it's just the party of Trump and being anti-Woke & anti-left. While the anti-woke is a necessary countervailing force it is fundamentally defensive. The extreme focus on social issues and culture helps corporations, government, and the super-rich laugh their way to the bank as they get away with ripping-off the bottom 99%+.
  2. "Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba stated that Russian forces launched 190 missiles of various types, 140 Shahed drones, and 700 glide bombs at targets in Ukraine between March 18 and 24." The Russians will probably raze the fortified city of Chasiv Yar with guided bombs in time. The Russian space program created a new space rocket and revealed it recently. It looks like going forward, Russian cosmonauts will not work with the US-Western nations to the degree that they did before. It would be ironic if one day they create a new space station with Chinese, Persians, & North Koreans..
  3. He's not James Bond if he's not 'sexist' James Bond is (was..) a male power-fantasy, meant to be superficial. By turning him into a troubled character (Daniel Craig films) the essence of what he once was is lost-. For me I only liked Goldeneye and Casino Royale. I think Pierce was a good James Bond but his films were a let-down due to quality issues. Daniel Craig is a good actor but IMHO miscast from the start. Henry Cavil looks the part but doesn't have the charisma for it imho.
  4. Most things that are successful aren't very good these days
  5. Henry Cavill's Argylle bombed pretty bad and it's the first of a trilogy... He was often talked about as a possible replacement for Bond (esp. due to A Man for Uncle). His hairline looks pretty bad these days. Argylle - Wikipedia Daniell Craig wasn't a very good Bond imho.
