18:00:02 | localroger | Michael Moore would be proud of you. Actually is, in fact. |
18:00:12 | Sat | * Sat nods |
18:00:19 | Sat | I read that he said it's ok. |
18:00:22 | Lucifer | Our topic this evening is the controversial film Fahrenheit 9/11 |
18:00:24 | Sat | I would have anyhow. |
18:00:35 | Lucifer | (for the record :-) |
18:01:06 | Sat | I ain't saying shit. no way those bush bastards are gonna get me! |
18:01:08 | rhino | very controversial |
18:01:08 | rhino | not a word about the jews |
18:01:10 | Lucifer | I expect we'll be talking about the content quite a bit |
18:01:26 | Lucifer | but I'd also like to discuss it from a meta-level |
18:01:32 | WW | It's fecund if nothing else. |
18:01:44 | Lucifer | as a work of propaganda and meme-engineering |
18:01:45 | localroger | * localroger can see this is going to be a helluva chat |
18:02:07 | Sat | * Sat hands localroger a mitigator. |
18:02:26 | Lucifer | So what did you think of the film WW? |
18:02:35 | localroger | Moore is not shy about saying that's exactly what it is. Which itself is interesting, a propagandist leading with his wrist. |
18:02:36 | Sat | topic Our topic this evening is the controversial film Fahrenheit 9/11 |
18:02:44 | Sat | Sat has changed the topic on #virus to "Our topic this evening is the controversial film Fahrenheit 9/11" |
18:02:45 | Lucifer | Did anyone else read localroger's fine K5 article? |
18:02:57 | Lucifer | thx Sat |
18:02:58 | localroger | *cough* /me shuffles feet |
18:03:06 | WW | I had a smile on the whole way through, EVEN THOUGH my trusty old analog bullshit detector was buzzing loudly. |
18:03:21 | Lucifer | interesting observation WW |
18:03:24 | Sat | much of the facts are correct |
18:03:35 | Sat | I had to admire how mm presented them |
18:03:39 | localroger | ALL of the facts are correct. Soem of the *cough* inferences are open to interpretation. |
18:03:51 | Sat | listening to the music alone was spiffy and informative to his aims. |
18:03:51 | localroger | Much of the film's budget went to fact-checking. |
18:03:52 | Lucifer | You found it enjoyable if not exactly true? |
