Wow based on the fact that you got every reference and intention at the heart of the thing - I must declare you kind wise literate scholarly and deeply enlighted -
The only thing missing the subversion is meant to be fun
And the fun is the subversion ;)
I reviewed it here. Fantastic.

John Cusack and Ignacio Noé have created a darkly satirical thought experiment.

“A person afflicted with nationalism believes that his own country is the most civilised and humane country in the world while its enemies are guilty of every imaginable atrocity and vileness. Since they are so vile and atrocious, while we are so civilised and humane, there is no degree of vileness and atrocity which we may not legitimately practise towards them. This is the underlying creed of nationalism.”
― Bertrand Russell

NEW: Trump said he would offer a protective pardon to Elon Musk, who has donated $474 million in this election cycle to Republicans, a historic record by far of trying to buy elections. If you need a reason to stay online and vote, remember this corruption!

This is how change comes best, from within … the Jewish community.
“We’ve stepped through the looking glass here.”
Benjamin Moser may be the most important Dutch voice of our time.
Every (Dutch) politician who remains silent in the face of Israel’s atrocities or enables them through political inaction should listen to him.
Especially Prime Minister Rob Jetten. @MinPres

Salgo del cine de ver “Naza”. Es un documental brutal, estremecedor. Nos ha dejado a los espectadores en silencio, clavados a la butaca. Cuesta digerir el horror.
Un relato imprescindible contado desde el corazón de la inteligencia israelí. Muy recomendable.

James Talarico on Elon Musk:
The thing that really upsets people, particularly about the Elon example, is that Tesla was successful because of taxpayer dollars.
Tesla got investment from the federal government, which is why it has been so successful.
If we're all going to invest in Tesla, if we're going to invest in Elon Musk, or pick your billionaire, most of our billionaires went to schools that we funded, they drove on highways that we funded.
We're not saying they can't be successful.
All we're saying is make sure you give something back to the country that made your success possible.

The Kafkaesque UK laws adopted under the Starmer gov to appease Israel are such that you'll get arrested for terrorism if you hold a sign saying I support Palestine Action.
But if you hold a sign saying "I suppport Genocide. I oppose Palestine Action," then you'll be fine...

France is showing the world what real accountability looks like. Paris prosecutors have launched a major criminal investigation into Elon Musk’s X, raided its Paris offices and summoned Musk and former CEO Linda Yaccarino for questioning.
The allegations are staggering, political manipulation through algorithms, child sexual abuse material, sexually explicit deepfakes generated by Grok without consent, Holocaust denial, unlawful data extraction and election interference.
While Musk parades around pretending to be a defender of free speech, his platform faces allegations involving the exploitation of children, the sexual abuse of women through AI-generated imagery, the manipulation of political discourse and threats to democratic elections.
Bravo, France! This is what standing up to billionaire arrogance looks like. Democracy is not a billionaire's personal playground, social media platforms are not above the law, and Elon Musk does not get to buy himself immunity from accountability. France is making it clear that the rule of law still matters, and the rest of the democratic world should be paying attention.

Harvard Professor Martin Nowak accepted $6.5 million from Jeffrey Epstein, gave him his own office on Harvard’s campus, and met with him 150 times AFTER Epstein became a convicted sex offender.
Nowak’s name appears more than 4,000 times in the Epstein files, including in the infamous “did you torture her” email.
He also made trips to Epstein’s private island, his ranch in New Mexico, and his apartment in New York City. The two were friends for over a decade.
And despite all of this, Martin Nowak remains a paid employee of Harvard University.

Elon Musk has now given $474 million in the midterms, more than any donor has ever spent in a single election cycle, per The New York Times.
The only people who’ve spent more were wealthy candidates funding their own campaigns.
That’s up from $366 million in mid-October, and well above the nearly $300 million he spent to help elect Trump in 2024.

"Israeli strikes on Gaza killed eight people, including a young boy."
This is what Haley Stevens and Mike Rogers defend but also don't want you to know about.
Ceasefire, what ceasefire??
