I think plenty have half-forgotten, because Leftists bury unflattering behavior that they were militantly earnest about at the time and make accurate depictions of it seem delusional, but this is what Woke 1.0 was like. Authentic videos like this were coming out weekly in 2015.




@AJamesMcCarthy I feel like some of them wouldn't give it up even if you flew them there and bounced their thick skulls off a LM descent stage a couple times. "Staged! *They* put this here to fool us!" It's an epiphenomenon of a psychological drive, not a reasoned belief.

Emily Wilson, whose 2017 translation of the Odyssey Christopher Nolan drew on for his new film, has brought Homer back from antiquity. One of the most celebrated translators in the world, she is reviving a fading academic discipline and shining with a harsh and brilliant light in the humanities’ gathering gloom. “The ancient Greeks teach one to be modern,” the poet and classicist A.

Florence Pugh reveals the camera broke during her and Cillian Murphy’s intimate scene in Oppenheimer, leaving them stuck on set waiting for repairs. “In the middle of our sex scene, the camera broke. No one knows this, but it did.” “Our camera broke when we were both naked, and it was not ideal timing.” Pugh said the closed set made the situation awkward, with her and Murphy having to wait while the crew fixed the equipment. Instead of sitting silently, she turned the unexpected pause into a learning moment: “So tell me, what’s wrong with this camera?” Director Christopher Nolan later explained the issue involved the way light was entering the camera. Pugh said the experience showed how passionate and skilled the entire Oppenheimer crew was, describing every moment on set as a privilege.
