V: ”I need a few hundred thousand Guy Fawkes masks, a reliable mail service, a working subway train and at least a thousand red & black dominos by the fifth of November.” Shop owner: “Say no more”
This is also how BLM protests went wild. Police used too much brutality, which only made the situation worse. The protest that was peaceful at first turned some places into a place of anarchy. Police stopped intervening on protestors, so people had to hire guards, and board up their businesses. People who opposed the idea got their property attacked, and people were forced to join and contribute to the protests.

Plus everyone needs a hobby. It helps you focus, Gives you time to think. Takes up that time between actions so that you don't lose your mind to the tedium.
The last domino is him. He has set everything up and makes the initial push. The tragedy is that he does not fit into the new world he created, so he has to remove the domino that doesn't fit, him. That's why he hangs his head when it doesn't fall, not because he thinks he messed up, but because he knows he will not have a place.
no... He thought he was the key to it all, until that moment. looking at that last domino, he realized it's not the one that starts the dominoes that is important, it's the dominoes themselves. It was domino that stood in the way of the pattern completing, it must be a domino that starts it. He was not the last domino standing, that's Evey. She must start it, or not. It's not about him, it's never been about him.
Pretty hilarious comment. Though I wonder if the last domino has any symbolic meaning. I say this since he picks it up and examines it as though unsure on how to deal with the last piece of the puzzle. You could say that the domino is the inspector. One side was red and the other was black. At the end of the movie he had the decision to either stop the plan when the girl was on the train or allow the train of explosives to go through.

The Dominos falling represents every event V planned or saw coming The only thing he couldn't see coming was meeting Evey, that's why one domino was still standing
Evey and all of us. The whole point of liberty is not knowing what the person next to you is going to do. We all come around in good faith and honor and... have a chat or something. Be good people around each other. Maybe the public will raise or maybe they won't. There were no doubters. Everyone rose with you V. Evey. The dead. Everyone.
No matter how much you plan your plan and the events. Fate always comes in and gives you one thing you never expected. For someone like v. You would have thought he expect this of fate
Very nice! Also, could mean that it all comes down to one domino. The whole thing would still come down but not totally if that one domino doesn’t fall. As V has already taken (or planned to) the rest of the the party down and has left the final step and decision to Evey. The one domino.
Also, to your point, the movie even takes place in 2027. I believe it all started like right around now, because based on Valerie's time-line, thats when all the problems with the gov should have started
The last domino piece, which V did not expect or plan for, is Evee. This is why he gives her the final choice to send the train filled with explosives to destroy parliament, the culmination of his life's work. It's why the last domino piece is on the train with him when she decides to pull the lever. Evee (EV) is the missing emotional side of V, which he admits to in his last moments with her when he says he had been driven and fuelled by rage his entire life. He knows it's not chance when he meets her in the alleyway at the beginning, as he says "I, like God, do not play with dice".
I watched this in class when I was 12 and barely knew any English. I understood nothing at all. I didn't understand. When I turned 18, I received a present from my friend: the book 1984. I read it in 2 nights and as depressing as it was it felt familiar. I'm 24 now and just rediscovered this movie and it all makes sense
@@craves7215 that isn't what I said though. I said slavery is in itself a violence and therefore not peaceful state of being. Whether or not you're ok with violence as a matter of normalcy is a matter of individual resignation. That's none of my business.
i just want to give thanks to all the workers behind the scenes to actually set up that dominoes set, cause face it, we all know there had to be one prick that knocked it down before it was finished.
When you set up that many you always have section removed or blockades installed for just that occasion. A couple falling down is much better than the entire thing resetting itself.
When that Fingerman shot that little girl... I lost it. Bawling my eyes out, but with rage... He got what he deserved... as did Creedy and Suttler, eventually. Then, when they do the " curtain call" at the end and resurrect everyone... more tears... but ones of understanding, that they had their roles to play, for the revolution to come about. Every Revolution needs a Martyr or 2. They become a catalyst. Epic movie. I watch it Every year on November 5th.

In my efforts to become a better writer, I've been studying up on literary symbols. Seeing this scene now, it takes on a whole new meaning. The inspector is talking about how things are being set up according to plan, and the plan includes things to go "wrong," or as he puts it, "someone will do something stupid." And we see events unfolding just like how V wanted them to: less of a structured measure and more one catastrophe naturally and organically begets the next. And the dominos represent this idea perfectly. The best symbols are those we don't immediately realize reinforce the scene, usually at a subconscious level when we first see it, thus making it's impact both more subtle and more powerful. Stuff like this really shows how much more thought and purpose goes into every detail and scene than the casual movie viewer realizes.
To add to this, I like to think that the last domino standing represents that, in order for the plan to be completed, V needs to do one last thing, AKA die with his vengeance. As he said, he is a part of the world he wants to destroy, so to erase every element of it, he also needs to go.
In a movie that relies a lot on montages, this one is so smartly and wonderfully done - the performances, the editing, the monologue... it's the true explosion that ends the world. The rest is epilogue.
V: Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof. Lines from the true best scene in V For Vendetta.

This story is way more than 9 years old, it is taken from an adult comic series. Astoundingly, this maybe one of the best translations from written/drawn to movie screen. All the elements were held true and conveyed from the series to the screen.
@@galacticaone9537 I agree it was a good film but there are notable changes. If the chancellor died in the comic, then it was under very different circumstances than in the film. Instead, V's last fight is with the detective and V doesn't kill him but allow himself to be mortally wounded. Evey's hide out was different in the film, too. In the comic, she was more on her own; her relationship to her host was less friendly and more estranging. Her leave from there was also different. Further, in the film Evey leaves V after her transformation while in the comic she stays and prepares herself both physically and mentally with V as her teacher. This ties neatly into the fact that in the film the concept of V ends with V's death, while in the comic Evey takes up the mask to continue his revolutionary work. The film presents the end as closed: now that the revolution has become public it has succeeded, as if all was achieved now that the people have taken to the street and united under an important symbol of change (the destruction of the parliament building). This feels unfulfilling, given that all the work of restructuring their country and starting to rule themselves lies still ahead of those people.
I beg to disagree, the best scene for me personally is "would you really want to know?" because it forces the viewer to confront their own inherent weaknesses as a human being, turning a blind eye to injustice, making excuses for abhorrent behaviour, the desire to protect ones own self and/or family at the expense of others. "would you really want to know?" because would you actually have the strength to fight against it instead of cowering in the protection of your sofa with your family while the abuses play out disconnectedly on a TV screen that allow you to mentally absolve yourself of any culpability or responsibility...... "would you really want to know?"
Yeah. Myself and my family is quite more important than some individual on the street screeching about his view point of "injustice". Especially when his screeching leads to violence against other innocent people who had nothing to do with the injustice and are trying to get along in the same community as everyone else... Its even more important when those same people then JUSTIFY their violence as righteous, despite the fact that none of it was righteous and innocent people, and their property, were harmed. If you're that pathetic to where your actions hurt others, and you no longer care for their hurt, even more so desire to see them hurt because of injustice caused by government, you're doing exactly what the government wants, and you're being useful pawns to encourage more laws, more dictatorship, and more injustice. And then call people who go after said government, simply because of a difference of opinion, seditionists when they know the government is to blame for the injustice, the hurt, the pain, the inequity and inequality, the poverty, the lack of solutions and the development of problems, the endless wars and suffering. Make truth relative, and at this point, your truth is as irrelevant to me, as my truth is to you. So why should I care when your opinion sees me the problem for not including myself, when that same problem also says that because of who I am, what I believe, and what I'm born as, inherently makes me the problem to society? I'll stay home, go to work, and pay my government mandated theft of personal income, increase my personal arsenal, buy up ammo, food and water, and await the coming collapse. Because you fools surrendered our Constitutional Republic, and Dangerous Freedom, for the sake of soft, benevolent tyranny. And thus, none of you deserve either freedom, or safety.
@@JohnDoe-wt9ek Have you seen the movie? If you had you would know the context in which the question "would you really want to know?" is asked. Hint: It's not about "some individual on the street screeching about his view point of 'injustice . . . '" What individual are you talking about? "Some individual on the street screeching about his view point...." -- sounds like freedom of speech to me. And whose "screeching" has led to "violence against innocent people?" To whom are you referring? I can think of someone whose screeching has led to violence, but something tells me you probably look up to said individual so I won't get into that. I hope you never have to "screech" in the street for justice for yourself or your family. If you do, hopefully your audience will be more merciful than you are.
Great story telling. So much happens in such a short space of time yet it's all clear and simple to follow... and emotionally effective. And a fantastic film.
What people often miss about this movie is the fact it is not about revolution or good guy beats bad guy and so on. It is about control trough engineered panic created via several engineered panic starting events (the bio terror attacks) then boosted by media campaigns and in the end people surrendering their freedom for security. That is the real ‘plot’. And has always been and always overlooked. Same as the Armin Zola monologue in Winter Soldier. Probably a bit more interesting in the times we live in.
@@turkyish Oh, not so much. They were doing drills in groups to figure out how to use a mass pandemic as a way to most effectively steal as much money, freedom, and control from the common man as possible for at least the last twenty years. It's not something that "just happened" in 2020, it was actively set up and planned for.
I find it funny that Finch did some LSD at Larkhill in the graphic novel. But, ending that line with “…but I was tripping ballz on acid at the time.” probably would’ve taken something away from the scene’s power.
Raimo Höft dream on friend. I’d wish for you to experience life in actual autocratic state before you start your bullshit that “this is the EU now”. Get some perspective.
The first time I watched it I realized what a template it was for situations we've faced and are facing and will face. Corruption has only so many plays in it's book. This movie is relevant everyday
Oh shit, I only just realised. V picks up he one last red piece that doesnt fall in to place, next scene goes from a focus on a clock with red numbers to the man who would later allow and send the explosives to the tower of London whilst a song of the train plays, he's the last piece that falls in to place allowing everything to come to fruition. I've seen this movie many times and still notice some new symbolism I missed before almost every time.
Something they don’t get into in the movie (but elude to) V is “enhanced”. Incredible speed and fine control of thought and body. He is obsessed, and driven, and careful, but he is also unnaturally strong and fast
Anybody notice that our society has a lot in common with this movie now? If you haven't seen this movie yet, I can recommend. It's gives a nice perspective on these times.
I was just gonna ask that. I’ve not seen it yet but had heard it has some relevance to today’s shenanigans. Worth a watch, yeah? Any other prophetic movie suggestions? I was thinking maybe I Am Legend. Or even The Siege. Saw Contagion last year when it all kicked off.
We now have a President, a bigot himself, from a party that created the KKK trying to destroy this country by submission into wearing masks and censor anyone that does not agree with them. It's gotten pretty close to that. What amazed me is how many people would bootclick salute him in total delirious devotion despite the rising food, gas, and lumber prices.
This has been one of my favorite movies since I first saw it back in ‘06. One of the only movies, if not _the_ only that was literally a 2+hour long prophecy.
It's relevant in the fact that the movie is about a manufactured global pandemic that allows a tyrannical dictator to take control of a country by using fear mongering propaganda spewed by the media (talks only about safety and not about freedom) and is set in 2020.
This is such an underrated movie. This is more than just a film, it's an idea. Ideas are the means to meaning, and for those voracious enough, enunciation of truth.

They meet at the end of the movie and send V off on his train together. This probably implies they started up a relationship afterwards, perhaps even getting married.
The huge emotional impact is when the movie producers decided to use real footage from riots and put them in the movie. That just hits on a whole different level.
And what happens when we abandon the lie? Chaos. A gaping pit to swallow us all. Chaos isn't a pit, chaos is a ladder. Either for those that want to rise in power or to be free of it.
@bruse wayne true but faith is very powerful and dangerous. The best leaders had the support of their religious leaders. Like GoT, medieval kings had the power of God (church) supporting their rule similar to the theocracies of Israel and Muslim countries.
@bruse wayne Oh no, I didn't mean that religion is a lie or anything. I am a Christian myself. It is just that faith is a powerful force for good or evil and throughout history it has plagued so many people. Who needs to justify their actions when they do it in the name of God. I think that after the fall of catholicism and religion as a means of governance, people looked to a new replacement, ideology. That is where Marxism took place and it replaced religion as a means of faith and oppression. Don't mean to bad mouth the spiritual value of religion.

Instead of still mindlessly nodding the head to media narrative, I recommend following up for yourself. There is also a lot of great speech back on Twitter by users who should have never been censored, suspended, or banned in the first place. You’re approaching the idea of you or those with your particular political opinions silencing dissenting voices by appealing to faux virtue. It was reasonable and good ideas also being silenced by the likes of Dorsey and Agarwal. It was not simple “racial slurs.” No one is being silenced for their opinions at this point. That’s a good thing. It also gives us the ability to challenge dumb opinions unimpeded Calls to violence and genuine harassment/spamming/botting do result in reprimand. Under Musk, the majority of CP has already been removed from Twitter. It was on there for years, and known about-having been reported multiple times, including by some of the victims.

@@highpriestofgavinalmightyh1304 So you find it hilarious when the the opposition gets "silenced" but only when its the correct opposition. Harassment gets reprimanded, but only when its the correct side being harassed. Racial slurs are fine, and should be celebrated though. Understood.

Wow so edgy dood
Not really.
Absolutely...its the chain of events that are planned
The last domino piece, which V did not expect or plan for, is Evee. This is why he gives her the final choice to send the train filled with explosives to destroy parliament, the culmination of his life's work. It's why the last domino piece is on the train with him when she decides to pull the lever. Evee (EV) is the missing emotional side of V, which he admits to in his last moments with her when he says he had been driven and fuelled by rage his entire life. He knows it's not chance when he meets her in the alleyway at the beginning, as he says "I, like God, do not play with dice".

I’ve said it before….and I’ll say it again…this film is more important than we can possibly imagine.
I watched this in class when I was 12 and barely knew any English. I understood nothing at all. I didn't understand. When I turned 18, I received a present from my friend: the book 1984. I read it in 2 nights and as depressing as it was it felt familiar. I'm 24 now and just rediscovered this movie and it all makes sense

It was CGI

The problem in a nutshell is this: we the people are supposed to be participating in our own government, but we are not.
We should do anal with our government
Hans Anderson 100% Agreed.
The shot of the irate populace attacking the finger is brilliant. In that moment, the people had been pushed to the point that his badge meant nothing and the threat of death was an acceptable risk to punish him.
That clip should terrify modern governments. The very instant the people reject their supposed power and authority, the people realize those in power are just bullies who are vastly outnumbered.
I thought that was a "finger man" that was attacked.

In my efforts to become a better writer, I've been studying up on literary symbols. Seeing this scene now, it takes on a whole new meaning. The inspector is talking about how things are being set up according to plan, and the plan includes things to go "wrong," or as he puts it, "someone will do something stupid." And we see events unfolding just like how V wanted them to: less of a structured measure and more one catastrophe naturally and organically begets the next. And the dominos represent this idea perfectly.
The best symbols are those we don't immediately realize reinforce the scene, usually at a subconscious level when we first see it, thus making it's impact both more subtle and more powerful. Stuff like this really shows how much more thought and purpose goes into every detail and scene than the casual movie viewer realizes.
My big surprise with angry Vets and sniper abilities haven't done something to scare the gvts
Du hörst dich gern reden.
To add to this, I like to think that the last domino standing represents that, in order for the plan to be completed, V needs to do one last thing, AKA die with his vengeance. As he said, he is a part of the world he wants to destroy, so to erase every element of it, he also needs to go.
In a movie that relies a lot on montages, this one is so smartly and wonderfully done - the performances, the editing, the monologue... it's the true explosion that ends the world. The rest is epilogue.
This movie becomes more prophetic by the day.
Agreed, something feels like a prophecy at the time i watched it, now more then ever.

@@corridosnomamadas9286 the current UK government is using fear and hate as a means to staying in power, telling lies to fuel the fire they use to distract their nationalist voters. Fear and hate of foreigners and anything to do with the EU, all whilst bending the rules to benefit the rich, and make the poor even poorer. Those of us who know the evil of much of our national press knew exactly what was to come, we all stood up against it, but to no avail. The general public in the UK, in England at the very least have fallen hook line and sinker for the lies, and the hate. They value self reliance above international cooperation, they see corruption where they're told there's corruption and yet are blind to the corruption of those who doing the finger pointing.

This video showed up in my feed and it's 9 YEARS OLD. I didn't search for this. Is the RUclips algorithm trying to tell us something??
This story is way more than 9 years old, it is taken from an adult comic series. Astoundingly, this maybe one of the best translations from written/drawn to movie screen. All the elements were held true and conveyed from the series to the screen.
@@galacticaone9537 I agree it was a good film but there are notable changes.
If the chancellor died in the comic, then it was under very different circumstances than in the film.
Instead, V's last fight is with the detective and V doesn't kill him but allow himself to be mortally wounded.
Evey's hide out was different in the film, too. In the comic, she was more on her own; her relationship to her host was less friendly and more estranging.
Her leave from there was also different.
Further, in the film Evey leaves V after her transformation while in the comic she stays and prepares herself both physically and mentally with V as her teacher.
This ties neatly into the fact that in the film the concept of V ends with V's death, while in the comic Evey takes up the mask to continue his revolutionary work.
The film presents the end as closed: now that the revolution has become public it has succeeded, as if all was achieved now that the people have taken to the street and united under an important symbol of change (the destruction of the parliament building).
This feels unfulfilling, given that all the work of restructuring their country and starting to rule themselves lies still ahead of those people.
I doubt it.
RUclips probably has picked up on your interest in this film in the past and thus recommended you this video.

I beg to disagree, the best scene for me personally is "would you really want to know?" because it forces the viewer to confront their own inherent weaknesses as a human being, turning a blind eye to injustice, making excuses for abhorrent behaviour, the desire to protect ones own self and/or family at the expense of others.
"would you really want to know?" because would you actually have the strength to fight against it instead of cowering in the protection of your sofa with your family while the abuses play out disconnectedly on a TV screen that allow you to mentally absolve yourself of any culpability or responsibility......
"would you really want to know?"
Yeah. Myself and my family is quite more important than some individual on the street screeching about his view point of "injustice". Especially when his screeching leads to violence against other innocent people who had nothing to do with the injustice and are trying to get along in the same community as everyone else...
Its even more important when those same people then JUSTIFY their violence as righteous, despite the fact that none of it was righteous and innocent people, and their property, were harmed.
If you're that pathetic to where your actions hurt others, and you no longer care for their hurt, even more so desire to see them hurt because of injustice caused by government, you're doing exactly what the government wants, and you're being useful pawns to encourage more laws, more dictatorship, and more injustice.
And then call people who go after said government, simply because of a difference of opinion, seditionists when they know the government is to blame for the injustice, the hurt, the pain, the inequity and inequality, the poverty, the lack of solutions and the development of problems, the endless wars and suffering.
Make truth relative, and at this point, your truth is as irrelevant to me, as my truth is to you. So why should I care when your opinion sees me the problem for not including myself, when that same problem also says that because of who I am, what I believe, and what I'm born as, inherently makes me the problem to society?
I'll stay home, go to work, and pay my government mandated theft of personal income, increase my personal arsenal, buy up ammo, food and water, and await the coming collapse.
Because you fools surrendered our Constitutional Republic, and Dangerous Freedom, for the sake of soft, benevolent tyranny. And thus, none of you deserve either freedom, or safety.

Hint: It's not about "some individual on the street screeching about his view point of 'injustice . . . '" What individual are you talking about? "Some individual on the street screeching about his view point...." -- sounds like freedom of speech to me. And whose "screeching" has led to "violence against innocent people?" To whom are you referring? I can think of someone whose screeching has led to violence, but something tells me you probably look up to said individual so I won't get into that.

Great story telling. So much happens in such a short space of time yet it's all clear and simple to follow... and emotionally effective. And a fantastic film.
What people often miss about this movie is the fact it is not about revolution or good guy beats bad guy and so on. It is about control trough engineered panic created via several engineered panic starting events (the bio terror attacks) then boosted by media campaigns and in the end people surrendering their freedom for security. That is the real ‘plot’. And has always been and always overlooked. Same as the Armin Zola monologue in Winter Soldier. Probably a bit more interesting in the times we live in.

Oh shit, I only just realised. V picks up he one last red piece that doesnt fall in to place, next scene goes from a focus on a clock with red numbers to the man who would later allow and send the explosives to the tower of London whilst a song of the train plays, he's the last piece that falls in to place allowing everything to come to fruition.

@@bigbowlowrong4694 Making an opposing statement in a comment that's over a Year Old. You couldn't simply disagree and keep scrolling by continuing to live your life? You had to contradict not a fact, but someone else's opinion. How pathetic are you? 😂😂😂😂
John hurt was such a great actor and his legendary performances and voice will forever be remembered
2:22 - a hint at the future... that the Detective and Evey would one day know each other. A nice little touch, since it is so easy to miss.
Wow, never noticed that one before!
They meet at the end of the movie and send V off on his train together. This probably implies they started up a relationship afterwards, perhaps even getting married.
@@0megacron Erm… The Detective was already married, though...
and then natalie portman was like "date?"
and, suddenly, he was a single man. funny that.
jamham69 You mean no longer single?
When this movie came out. It was a mind blow! Visual listening poetry in it's purest form!!
The huge emotional impact is when the movie producers decided to use real footage from riots and put them in the movie. That just hits on a whole different level.
One long chain of events that stretched long back before Covid 19.
John Hurt didn't do much in this movie, but what did was awesome.
“WE ARE BEING BURIED BENEATH AN AVALANCHE OF YOUR INADEQUACIES MR CREEDY” Amazing actor. RIP.
Definitely 1 of my top 10 films.
You can not comply your way out of tyranny. Become ungovernable.
It’s crazy on how all these years of anonymous hacker group was inspired by this masterpiece of a movie and still remains as relevant as today.
2:55 : "With so much chaos, someone will do something stupid. When they do, things will turn nasty."
*YOU ARE HERE, UNITED STATES.*
I am really surprised you didn't get a million thumbs up for this! I was your 5th
"And then Chancellot Sutler will do the only thing he knows best"...POLICE MILITARIZATION. "LAW AND ORDER!!!"...too real for today!
Yeah man I hate the liberals from the us , they are so insane they are so racist and sexist , they being races and genders in everything.
The chaos is by design. The dominoes are set for November. Tick tock.
@Paul Kersey you're a gullible fucking idiot
And what happens when we abandon the lie? Chaos. A gaping pit to swallow us all.
Chaos isn't a pit, chaos is a ladder.
Either for those that want to rise in power or to be free of it.
@bruse wayne true but faith is very powerful and dangerous. The best leaders had the support of their religious leaders. Like GoT, medieval kings had the power of God (church) supporting their rule similar to the theocracies of Israel and Muslim countries.
@bruse wayne Oh no, I didn't mean that religion is a lie or anything. I am a Christian myself. It is just that faith is a powerful force for good or evil and throughout history it has plagued so many people. Who needs to justify their actions when they do it in the name of God. I think that after the fall of catholicism and religion as a means of governance, people looked to a new replacement, ideology. That is where Marxism took place and it replaced religion as a means of faith and oppression. Don't mean to bad mouth the spiritual value of religion.
@bruse wayne It's fine. At least for me. There are those without mercy. I've studied history alot in school and analyzed it quite a bit so I learn most of what I know from history itself.
Chaos is the beginning!
Laddah!
You could overlay this incredible scene with current government goings-on, and it still fits perfectly.
Here's the issue. Both parties think that they're V, snd both think that the other side are sheep that need to wake up
@@JusticeFrogs Here’s the bigger issue, there is only one “side“ currently devastated because a particular social media platform is allowing their political opposition to speak freely.
That tells me everything I need to know about that “side.“
@@highpriestofgavinalmightyh1304 I don't know of any side that's devastated. I do know that use of racial slurs is up by a factor of 5 since on that social media platform since that the new owner fired the entire content moderation team. Are you saying that one of the two sides is basically just all racial slurs?
@@JusticeFrogs Then you haven’t actually been on Twitter. It is a salt mine of upset Democrat loyalists and establishment hacks lamenting that those with whom they disagree may speak freely.
At no point in time did I even suggest that racial slurs are used by “one side.“ In fact, if you ever go onto black Twitter, you’re going to see some rather colorful language, and it’s not typically by muh white people.
Instead of still mindlessly nodding the head to media narrative, I recommend following up for yourself.
There is also a lot of great speech back on Twitter by users who should have never been censored, suspended, or banned in the first place.
You’re approaching the idea of you or those with your particular political opinions silencing dissenting voices by appealing to faux virtue.
It was reasonable and good ideas also being silenced by the likes of Dorsey and Agarwal. It was not simple “racial slurs.”
No one is being silenced for their opinions at this point. That’s a good thing. It also gives us the ability to challenge dumb opinions unimpeded
Calls to violence and genuine harassment/spamming/botting do result in reprimand.
Under Musk, the majority of CP has already been removed from Twitter. It was on there for years, and known about-having been reported multiple times, including by some of the victims.
The legacy media we are still supposed to implicitly trust for whatever reason is seriously conflating him removing child abuse and violent leftist groups to him silencing the left which I find morbidly hilarious.
@@highpriestofgavinalmightyh1304 So you find it hilarious when the the opposition gets "silenced" but only when its the correct opposition. Harassment gets reprimanded, but only when its the correct side being harassed. Racial slurs are fine, and should be celebrated though. Understood.
This movie is so epic that every movie clip seems like it’s the trailer for it.
This is one of my favourite movies of the 21st century. I've watched it around 10 times. Always enjoy it.
