2018-09-06 00:18:54 UTC  

Not in the case of Blade Runner...

Blade Runner 2049 was the best movie I've seen in the past 5 years, and it could be argued that it surpassed the original.

@Seven Of Swords yep i agree fully with that. It was slower than the first but just as powerful and absolutely beautiful. I'm fairly certain the director is at least aware of mgtow and the topics we talk about because it incorporated so much into it

2018-09-06 00:39:57 UTC  

@Happy Humble Hermit Yep. The movie was full of "red-pills" and "black-pills" (I hate the "pills" analogy, but I don't know what else to use).

TFM in the server that's awesome and of course our retarded bot is being retarded

@Seven Of Swords the pills is a good surface level term. Pewdiepie recently examined the matrix and i need to make a response

Blade Runner 2049 brought up the illusion of the image of women, the atomized and isolated individual as a result of capitalism, the questioning of our very own identities, etc.

2018-09-06 00:42:38 UTC  

Really? Was it his first time seeing it?

2018-09-06 00:55:33 UTC  

Did you guys hear about what happened to the JD.com dude?

2018-09-06 00:55:42 UTC  

Its fucked man

2018-09-06 01:13:29 UTC  

@Happy Humble Hermit Loved your collab with Sunrise and Reverend20piece. Hope you get a convo with tfm soon, would be great.

2018-09-06 01:14:39 UTC  

"the atomized and isolated individual as a result of capitalism" this claim needs evidence

2018-09-06 01:20:14 UTC  

hermit should make a debate text channel

2018-09-06 01:21:42 UTC  

and a channel about channels, and a channel about that too

2018-09-06 02:20:21 UTC  

@igorbloodscene Ok. 1) define evidence 2) As a worker must sell his labor power to survive, he is alienated from his labor, the means of production, other workers and himself. He is seen as nothing more than as Stardusk puts it "a human doing not a human being" and is only valued inso far as how much he can aid in the accumulation of capital. This alienation makes individuals more and more atomized as they cannot know themselves for their identities are only known in relation to other commodities.

2018-09-06 02:22:09 UTC  

For example in Blade Runner 2049, Officer K is seen as nothing more than a replicant, or tool to be used to do the bidding of LAPD, and to always obey humans. And it is from this relationship that he is only able to know who he is. It is only through the recognition of his inherent inability to become a master (i.e. human) that he must know that his identity is a slave. This is Hegel's Master/Slave dialectic in action during the entire film.

2018-09-06 02:28:52 UTC  

Likewise, in capitalism, a worker only knows that he is a worker only insomuch as he knows that he does not own the means of production i.e. he knows that he is not a capitalist. Thus, he becomes isolated and atomized as his only social relation is valuable insofar as he is useful. Competition with other workers, the social and societal rules becoming more muddied and hard to understand, anomie ensues and people become more individuated and convince themselves that they must rely upon no one but themselves due to distrust of other people.

@Justinian I'm scheduled to appear on the tfm show this Saturday

2018-09-06 02:36:05 UTC

@Seven Of Swords blade runner 2049 was a sequel not a remake

2018-09-06 03:48:35 UTC  

tru

2018-09-06 03:52:12 UTC  

Bladerunner 2049 is a cinematic masterpiece

2018-09-06 04:20:21 UTC  

With regard to remakes, not sequels, for the most part, yes they are garbage.

2018-09-06 04:20:36 UTC  

Thanks for the clarification @ZODD

2018-09-06 04:21:02 UTC  

But maybe Dune will be different lol

2018-09-06 04:36:50 UTC  

There's gonna be a sequal for Dune?

2018-09-06 04:44:44 UTC  

I think its a remake

2018-09-06 04:45:30 UTC  

@ZODD We're both wrong and right lmao

2018-09-06 04:46:11 UTC  

Denis Villeneuve, the same director as Sicario and Blade Runner 2049 will be directing the Dune remake lmao

2018-09-06 04:46:26 UTC  

Its a remake, but the director is brilliant! I'm conflicted...

2018-09-06 04:47:53 UTC  

I suppose it'll be a bittersweet experience for you

2018-09-06 04:48:11 UTC  

I can't wait to see it honestly lol

2018-09-06 04:48:33 UTC  

I'll have to make up my mind once I see it on the screen haha

2018-09-06 04:48:44 UTC  

Have you seen The Arrival? It's another film by Villeneuve

2018-09-06 04:48:51 UTC  

No, but I need to.

2018-09-06 04:49:50 UTC  

It is great
