I’ve always felt a bit uneasy about big tech giants trying to act like banks. It feels like every major platform is trying to own every single aspect of our daily lives now, including our wallets. Do you guys think we're heading toward a future where we don't even need traditional institutions anymore?

Maybe around 5 hours during the week, but then hitting 10, 12, or even more on the weekends!!!
I don't really see anything wrong with that!!!
It makes you feel free, powerful, almost superior!!!

Superior? On the internet? 😕 🙄

I mean, you must be totally out of your mind!🤣

Oh, wow, look at that. I’m learning something new every day. 😎

I wasn't aware that these attention-seekers were out there acting as unofficial ambassadors for America on the global stage?🙄
Maybe they should start carrying the Stars and Stripes behind them like a title, just so people can actually identify who they are. 😁 😁

I suppose people are just desperately trying to keep their career trajectories pointing upward, right?
And honestly, if America (assuming we’re actually willing to throw money at the outrageous demands of some billionaire) wanted to get serious, they could have probably offered a slightly more competitive figure—say, maybe a million or so, depending on what's left in the coffers... but apparently, that was asking too much.

Duje, you definitely made the right call here!

I mean, if this country can't even figure out how to look after its top-tier athletes—and let’s be honest, it isn't like there's a lack of cash floating around, especially when you consider the massive budgets of insurance giants and major corporations—then I suppose it's perfectly understandable why Duje decided to go with a Qatari passport.

He was really something else, wasn't he? A total powerhouse. And man, what an actor! You just don't run into talent like that anymore...

May his soul find some peace out there.

I suppose it says everything about which side those so-called Allies actually belonged to, considering how much they relied on fascist tactics in what people call the fight against fascism—though calling it an anti-fascist struggle might be a bit of a stretch...

If you ask me, those same players haven't changed their "anti-fascist" playbook one bit to this day; if anything, they've just doubled down on it.

😲

An absolutely stellar film. It’s got this incredibly moving story that feels almost too on the nose, serving as a sort of symbolic mirror to the "reality" we're living in today. I guess you could say it's practically a precursor to The Matrix.

The acting is top-tier, and the direction? Honestly, just brilliant.
