Comedy Central Scheduling DeptIn the 1990s, we were concerned about the rise of fascism draped in patriotism, and lead by an intelligent and charismatic leader. Turns out we should have been worried about the stupid Nazis instead!
Tonight, we vote for Bob Roberts!
Knightky (he/him)The other night we watched the #BobRoberts movie, and I gotta say it feel an awful lot like life today then I’d like it to. It was a well done movie. My partner mentioned they wouldn’t release the music to a different platform and that was refused because without the context of the movie it would be terrible.
We leave for a trip starting tomorrow. I’m going to miss my sweet #Chinchilla sons a lot. I love my babies.

Tim Robbins Condemns Those Comparing Trump Assassination Attempt To “Bob Roberts”: “Deranged Mindset”
Actor-director Tim Robbins is calling out the conspiracy theories following the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, including that it was a staged even akin to a plot point in his 1992 movie Bob Roberts. Robbins wrote on X/Twitter, “To anyone drawing a parallel between my film Bob Roberts and the attempted assassination of Trump, let’s […]

And this seemingly innocuous rise of talk-radio punditry, for me, clearly had an agenda to it. The #deregulation under #Reagan that allowed that and the further deregulation under #Clinton, post #BobRoberts, led to more and more conglomerates of radio stations throughout the country that were relentlessly pursuing an agenda that served the elite class.
🧵
> Robbins, who starred, wrote, and made his directorial debut, was aiming for satire, but beneath the parody was an x-ray of the American psyche in the post-Reagan era that exposed all sorts of malignancy.
