"Oh your boss threatening to fire you is 'like communism'"
"I listen to guys who are forced to work on weekends say that it's like communism"
"Is your giant multinational company communist?"
[audience laughs]
"Does your CEO have a portrait of Stalin in his office? Do your kids read Karl Marx in school"
[laughter]
"I mean, really, are we [pause] not living in a capitalist country?"
"People keep pointing out child poverty here and say it's like North Korea. Have you been to the DPRK? Can you really say that the stuff you see daily is going on in the competing social system you know nothing about?"

That's awesome. Do you like to watch these films with the lights off, late at night and shit? Do you invite friends over to get creeped out together?
I mostly watch them by myself but I have gotten my wife into some of the tamer stuff. And I watch them basically whenever. I don't have many irl friends but at the beginning of the pandemic I did join a discord server that was pretty actively watching movies. I actually joined the nexbear crew when they watched The Host and Train to Busan a few weeks ago. And I'm pretty much down for any subgenre. From crappy b-horror all the way to gore golore stuff lol.
That's cool. My gf is really into horror films. Personally they weren't my thing, but the feeling of being terrified together, and grabbing onto each other in fear, is kinda cool.
The hexbear movie thing is so rad. I'm glad we do it.
