Arcade Fire are s***pests

Never been more bored than when I got dragged to a pro hockey game
of course the French invented it. It's just like their cinema.
idk, what does one respond?
en tout, i'm sorry that you're getting filtered from enjoying superior sports and cinema mon vieux!

Nobody should be discriminated for being from a certain place imo.
Even if that place is as vile and disgusting as britain.
Instead you should pity them and try to be understanding.
disagree Germans and British folks need regular hate crimes committed against them

Factoids
Easy to sit on your computer in 2024 and say different but those generations of people that tried their best to flee to the west tell me otherwise. Still evil but the lesser of two.

I am currently
that’s good
Ngl my opinion also formed from watching and reading about Soviet cinema all the time. Grim, fascinating world. So much potential crushed by Stalin in the 30s and Brezhnevs committees in the 60s-70s. Krushchev was on one though. (I know this doesn't always directly equate to how they were actually governing on a local or geopolitical level at said times)

i believe the ussr deserves credit for its critical role in defeating nazi germany, but i don’t think they’re above criticism for awful things they also did, like Katyn massacre, and the invasions of Hungary and Czechoslovakia.
It’s a case of chesterton fence, i wouldn’t idealise them or even praise them more than i had to, and i know many are happy to be free, but what came next was in many ways worse in certain places
They started this whole colonizing s***
the first european colonial empire was Portugal
