I want some grapes.
Anyone else in a mood for grapes? Ice-cold white grapes.
Mmm... Yeah. Grapes sound mighty yummy.
What? You were expecting a post with more substance... um... OK...
Does anyone really take Michael Moore seriously anymore? The man is a mockery of himself lately, letting his own Psyche delve deeper and deeper into self destructive paranoia. I didn't like him before and, after he was exposed as a fraudulent, fact-altering, effeminate successopath, I care for him even less. Let him angrily lisp somewhere else where, like Jesse Jackson, there's always a camera, just not where I'm forced to look at him.
No, I think GW is a moron mouthpiece for the Bible Thumping Fundamentalists, I just dislike Moore intensely.
No, Moore is not a hero. He made things worse for Flint, MI than he improved with his mockumentary.
Yes, I do think Moore and Morgan Spurlock should be forced to fight to the death. I doubt they would get around to fighting, what with them fellating each other from all the liberal love going on.
No, I don't think being a knee-jerk liberal is a good thing at all.
No, I don't think being a cold-hearted capitalist is a good thing at all.
I think if you polarize yourself, you're a f---ing joke: A stereotypical, unthinking automoton bent on forwarding a belief system without regard of it's real effects on the world. I don't believe in anything, but I have some pretty good ideas.
Comments
I will admit that I haven't even seen his two most recent films, but I have to comment that what is going on in Michigan (you can't just look at Flint as a city in itself but the state of Michigan as a unique entity--what happened with the auto industry there effected more than just Flint, I mean, look at Detroit. Have you been there recently? Detroit is a mockery of itself. It's impossible that a film could have solved Flint's problems, just as I wouldn't say that Roger and Me worsened them.
I have In-Laws in Flint, one of whom was gung-ho about Michael Moore's "contributions" to the State. Granted, Michael's complete and utter lack of follow-up on his promises to the businesses and people featured in his "work" pales in comparison to Granholm's openly acknowledged sabotage of the blue collar jobs in the state, but his involvement, or lack thereof, in the communities he's "serviced" (much in the same way a bull "services" a cow) makes him a liar and a coward. I would compare him to "Borat", except that when sued, Mr. Coen settles quietly and doesn't retreat into a corner crying loudly about a conservative plot againt him. Usually when I find someone to be THIS vile, I would recommend they serve as a living organ donor farm to salvage something good out of them. Michael Moore, however, has obviously abused his body, and from the photos of him drinking too much and smoking, he's a liability in that respect too.
Hate him? No. I simply feel as though many of the quirky weather patterns we have here on Earth would be lessened by removing his mass from the surface of the planet entirely.
I'm angry that he lies, connives and does everything in his power to appear as though he's trying to help people, when he's secretly forwarding his own agenda. He is a horrible human being with the ability and talent to catch the public's attention in any way possible. His tactics, much like Carl Reiner's with "All in the Family", go beyong confronting issues and making you think: Instead they use subterfuge, hyperbole and present the most admirable aspects of Communism in an attempt to tell you WHAT to think. Brilliantly packaged as passion plays, their messages are woven into their work nigh on imperceptably. Alan Alda tried the same thing in the latter years of MASH, but he must have grown weary of anything than the most slapdash hint of a disguise as the heavy pseudo moral uppercuts kept coming in an increasing rate.
The same goes for those people on the far right...
Help people think for themselves. Pablum is pablum.
