Looked up John Milius(Director of Red Dawn and Conan) and he's a weird guy that I'm somewhat fascinated by, I expected him to be right-wing to the core but he's some one reads Mao and thinks that killing billionaires is always justified
I have watched some of his other films, that he's either director and co-written, Geronimo, Wind and Lion and Farewell to the King and I get the impression that he just hates neo-liberalism and the modern world and would prefer anything over it.

Director =/= Screenwriter nor does it mean he controls the production, it's likely he needed the job, the CIA had a script and some people behind the curtains making sure things were as retardedly anti-communist as possible and there you go - Red Dawn is made.

As for Conan, it's not right-wing or whatever, if you had to give it an ideology it's primitivist, but honestly it's less about ideology and more of a story of a feudal primitive world and a man that rose up on blood and iron to defeat it, it's a story first and foremost, an ideology is almost irrelevant to it. The Conan thread has discussion about this.

What the hell is this?

Maybe rather than complaining about poor people he should be complaining about rich people not giving adequate funding to all schools . Things like "high school ranking" are stupid. If all schools were properly funded then schools could all give IB and AP classes as options. People who study hard can still get all college credit and IB classes while people who don't study can coast on regular classes. School funding should become a state and federal thing rather than the burden being on local property values.

 No.19422

>>19421

It seems like thats the problem he's describing. Lower income students means less funding means more rich people leave and creates a underfunded school that has less electives and chances for students to get opportunities in college credit.

Public Schooling as a rule in the USA is garbage regardless, housing or not. In the Boston area? It's fucking awful most of the time. ESL has nothing to do with it, and if the system tanks because of a large number of illiterate immigrants, than that's a very fragile and shitty system to begin with.

>>19422

They're not leaving anywhere LOL, they weren't going to nor investing in these Public Schools because the rich go to private schools, OR the Public School is just a token diploma path before jumping into college through some pocket-padded recommendations.

This is a valid argument but it goes for the whole utopia genre I think.
Anyway I'm finishing China Mountain Zhang, it's not really utopian but in the book the US underwent a socialist revolution and a cultural revolution and humanity is fixing climate change so there's that.

which side of space Zionism is right?
>The Ur-Quan Doctrinal Conflict or Doctrinal War is the conflict between the Ur-Quan Kzer-Za and Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah to prove which Doctrine (the Kzer-Za Path of Now and Forever or the Kohr-Ah Eternal Doctrine) is superior.
>The Path of Now and Forever is the guiding philosophy of the culture of the Ur-Quan Kzer-Za. In short, it dictates that all other forms of sentient life have the potential to one day enslave the Ur-Quan as the Dnyarri did. To solve this problem, the Path of Now and Forever calls for all sentient life to be either imprisoned within a slave shield as a Fallow Slave, or to serve the Ur-Quan as a Battle Thrall.
>The Eternal Doctrine is how most species refer to the Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah's alternative philosophy to the Ur-Quan Kzer-Za's Path of Now and Forever. It stipulates that to eliminate any future threat to Ur-Quan freedom all non-Ur-Quan sentient species are to be exterminated. While the Kzer-Za, the Melnorme, and most Human sources use the term "Eternal Doctrine", the Kohr-Ah themselves never use this phrase to describe their philosophy, instead calling it the "Path of Now and Forever".
yes both sub-species refer to their ideology as The Path of Now and Forever

>He probably get that shit from gymcelling, not from rockclimbing.
Forearms are actually relatively hard to get that big from gymceling. Same as your calves. Both those muscle groups are made for doing a lot of work over long periods, and you need to use them a lot under load for them to get big. That's why fat or formerly fat people have the biggest calves (carrying extra body weight all the time) and rock climbers or sailors or something like that have big forearms.
>Just look at the Tibetans who actually lived in the mountains and climb rocks everyday.
Not the same thing as rock climbing. They are walking around, using their legs more. Some Tibetan monks or whatever do a bit of climbing but they are still mostly walking, not pulling themselves with their arms. If you mean people like sherpas they are walking carrying shit working their legs more than their arms. "Rock climbing" here is when you climb like a monkey on a rock face. You don't usually carry a lot of extra weight but your forearm muscles are supporting your body weight the whole time so they get a lot of work.
>One thing i noticed is that people who grow muscles due to their lifestyle or job rather than regular trainings have tight and compact ones instead of the very prominent bulges you see from bodybuilders
Bodybuilders specifically target muscle size (hypertrophy) and use steroids so they are going to beat anybody at size alone. Any form of training is going to make the muscles bigger though, and plenty will make the muscles noticeably big. However, most people live a sedentary lifestyle today, so someone with bigger muscles may not look bigger overall compared to the average person who has smaller muscles but more body fat. The lower body fat is a more noticeable difference on most fit people since you can't even see the muscles on your average couch potato to begin with.

Greetings. I'm a nineteen year old agender human. I've lived in Manhattan my entire life, and I really have no desire to leave.
Since I was young when I've been taken to rural/ suburban areas I've started crying. There's something about them that makes me really hate them, they feel so boring and lonely, and whenever I'm there I get worried that I'm not going to be able to leave, or sad because I know they exist. Even now that I'm an adult I just start crying or panicking when I'm there.

For some reason, I can't stand the Coen Brothers' stuff in general, but this one movie by them has got to be one of my favourites that I've watched so far. It has a lot of rewatch quality for me. There are so many engaging interweaving subplots and side characters within it, and overall it's a pretty good depiction of the drudgery and rejection underneath culture industry.
It still has the pitfalls of the Coens' other stuff, like intentionally unsympathetic characters and a sort of annoyingly overriding deadpan quality, but I can let those pass somehow.

I hated this movie when I first saw it, but I’ve since known and been a part of music scenes since then and also become an even bigger Dylan fan than I was when I saw it. I def need to rewatch it.
