The best hope for democrats in 2028 is if HBO's Harry Potter looks directly into the camera and says he's voting blue no matter who because it's the most important election in his lifetime. (hexbear.net)

If the democrats can't give us policies to latch onto, they need to give us hope from voices we trust. Either Harry Potter does this or we're fucked.

My gf was watching season 4 of the boys, and despite my thoughts already being "wow this is edgy slop, with an obsession with cruel depictions of gore", what really shocked me was that its political message was just MAGA bad. Shallow obvious shit.

I see Steven Colbert is writing a new LOTR movie and I suspect the politics in there, if any, will be about the same. Liberal media is so asinine.

At least Colbert is a Tolkienhead, but damn do I feel less than zero interest in watching any post-Return of the King LOTR films or television shows.

LotR but all the Uruk Hai are trying to become PalinTok influencers.
