Well, tonight someone and I decided it'd be nifty to see the new Michael Moore flick you probably haven't heard anything about yet. I mean, it's been such a low-level hype machine for it that it's doubtful anyone has much of an inkling. Even looking at little Vancouver WA, where apparently some companies/groups bought up as much time as they could to ensure the film got the smallest release possible indicates how little the politics of the movie are projected to impact our lives.
I must say, I have never been closer to walking out in the middle of a film. MM did a really great job of splicing together the Prezzy's speeches and such. And throughout the first half of the film I was growing progressively more angry. It's difficult to really encapsulate just how bad it got for me, save to say that I remember a good deal of those speeches and interviews. And they angered me then, as he spoke them or they were reported on. But now, with all this evidence and supposition mounting against him, I was seething every time he opened his little primate lips. The lies he told the country took on a whole new dimension and level. The manipulation he perpetrated on the American people was matched in fervor only by one pile of shit I know. The ashes of the people he has hired to ensure this country is pushed to the brink in so many ways I can only hope will line his coffin on its way into the pyre.
For those that actually waste their time supporting the flying monkey, please. Do us all a favor. Wake the fuck up before he profiteers us right into oblivion. Go see it. Yes, it's obviously got an anti-Bush agenda. And yes, there are many things that might have purely innocent contexts and connotations. And yes, it may well be conjecturing a situation that simply doesn't exist. But in this case, since you've LIVED through these times, you SHOULD be able to remember these things as they happened. And if you can actually justify them in your own mind, then you're far beyond redemption anyway, and will likely praise his efforts as they send us spiralling into a void of international reprisal and hatred, leaving us very much alone and isolated in a culture that isn't ready for that type of independence.
I will definitely be owning a copy of Fahrenheit 9/11 when it comes out on DVD. If for no other reason than to try and document these facts and viewpoints before they're labelled as Treasonous, Terrorist, and banned from our lives as being Unpatriotic.
