ID: 3 stills from A Bullet for Baldwin (1956)

  1. Alfred Hitchcock says “I’ve just come into possession of a cure for fascism”

  2. He sets some bullets on his desk and says “they come in capsule form. For best results, they must be taken internally.”

  3. He holds up a revolver and says “here is the handy applicator.”

    This isn’t defensiveness for myself since I’m not American, or of America, being what it is, but you could say that about pretty much every country in the world, and that’s because capitalism is pretty much decaying globally.

    It’s why focusing on superficial “fixes” like a change of administration is a waste of our collective time and energy as the working class, which is exactly what it’s designed to do - keep the public busy and placated with artificial tribalism and an illusion of choice, while those at the top keep collecting and hoarding power and resources.

    As long as there is a class of people who benefit from the exploitation of the rest of us, they will do everything in their power to manipulate society to serve them.

        No one asked you to die for anything.

        But some of us don’t have the privilege of choosing.

        Whatever you imagine my sensibilities to be has nothing to do with it, you don’t get to shift the blame, it’s all on you to pick a side for yourself, and live with that choice.
