I wonder how this would trend if we cut out comic book movies from the stat.

I think that the majority of voters will look past what happened to the rail workers. It’s not a labour issue many understand or hear about.

FPTP needs to be stopped. The court needs to get its head out of its rear end and actually call this method of voting antiquated and no longer appropriate.

Interesting that Point Break (1991) and The Matrix (1999) book ended the decade. Point Break focuses on white 20 something kids that dropped out and started surfing, the The Matrix focuses on a 30ish white guy going through an existential crisis. At the beginning of the 90s there was still some hope, that a person could find a small counter-culture and create if not a wealthy life, of something satisfying. By 1999 all hope was gone.

I looked it up, Six Degrees of Separation was inspired from a real incident in the early 1980s. I was wondering why it felt like something from a decade earlier.

Copyright is whatever makes the wealthy wealthier. They’ll be copyright reform, but only to protect these new industries.

Wayne’s World was trying to recapture Mike Myers’ childhood in the 70s and early 80s. So doesn’t capture spirit of the 90s.

Biodome

Sadly this might be the most 90s of 90s movie. Others like Terminator are sequels, or movies like You’ve Got Mail are scripts written 10 years prior. Biodome is a time capsule of mid 1990s.

That’s the point.

Felt like it was from the 70s.

That was a throw back to the 1980s Brat Pack, so you can group in the late 80s.

Along with Falling Down, watch Boyz n the Hood https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101507/ and Juice https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104573/

All really the same story of the grungy 1990s.

Falling Down captures the downturn in the economy of the 1990s and the grunge of it.

You’ve Got Mail almost feels like a 1980s movie.

Point Break or Speed

The Renaissance in Italy was paid for by the emerging banking industry, the Medici family is a good example of what happened. If you want large public works, and people like Leonardo da Vinci, then you also get families like the Medici. You can’t separate the two. So not just USA-centric.

“sweat of the subsistence farmer or the feudal peasant/slave was what built the foundations of most countries”, it was also access to different resources. Mining for silver in some areas, sheep and wool production in others, forestry in others … already by the 13th century the Hanseatic League had a large trade network in most of Europe (from the Mediterranean in N. Italy through Germany into the sea and along the coasts of the North sea and the Baltic sea to Norway Sweden Finland and Russia.

‘deprogram’…‘barred from having contact with their protective parent’.

This will be decades of lawsuits and millions of dollars.

On the bright side, more people using VPNs.

The USA has a bs mythology that it was founded by ‘pioneers’ and that a wild wild west existed. The untold history of the USA is really the story of finance. Those that financed, the joint stock companies that helped to bring immigrants over. The land speculators, and recruiters that brought over Irish and other immigrants over in the 19th century, through money provided by rail and steam companies.
These type of post-apocalyptic memes perpetuate the stereotype of a self-made country. When in reality financiers from England were offshoring labor to a country with fewer regulations and no copyright/patent laws.
