ever since those Avengers movies proposed the idea of multiverses and it became mainstream, a lot of people live in different realities for the past 5-6 years
"Alternative facts" and all that
You can see it all live on social or tv or even on the streets
decent people drowning in a sea of idiots...
We can have real peace worldwide if we all just go to therapy
- I'm ... not sure a superhero film series can really be held responsible for this ...Continuity
- Why not exactly?
But yes ofc not
it was a nice simple example of the multi-verse concept applied to real life in a way
wthout going full Meta******** - Oh dear. The concept of alternate and parallel universes have been a — *mainstream* — trope for as long as there've been TV shows, films, and novels.Continuity
- Zoom out a bit Continuity, don't get cramped on the first sentence ;)********
- Use better analogies next time?Continuity
- lolfadein11
- It was a good analogy, you don't see anything like it before Marvel movies and Trump's presidency********
- Someone wasn't paying attention during the Bush Jr years.Continuity
- no really check the news back then, all chill before Brexit, Trump, etc.
That was a major turning point
The return of the "us vs. them" politics and all that******** - then the pandemic was a big reveal - who was who - basically all the masks were off
same countries, same cities, even same families but different realities******** - Yeah no, the Bush years were nothing like the mood today********
- < Anyway, this was just an observation...
Carry on******** - I would have just started with “trump’s presidency”... we know russia was actively trying to divide us and the whole “fake news/alt facts” thing came out thenscarabin
- Perhaps political climes forced us into escapist activities like comic books where good people still existscarabin
- I'm still struggling to see the connection with Marvel movies but the rest is valid and been spoken about for at least the last 8 years.fadein11
- Well, in many ways comics are based on real life politics
But yes, I should've started with mentioning trump, even tho' the mood was proceeding him by a bit******** - @fadein Marvel movies are highly propagandistic in many ways
It was just a simple comparison tho'******** - Putin is/was a genius on some levels, his slow strategy of destabilising the West was his mission accomplished.fadein11
- yep fair enough, just don't think they have as much effect as rbillions of relentless, fake posts/ads from Russian troll farms over the last decadefadein11
- Not sure that is true, the West was already not a "stable genius" for a while - dysfunctional is the right word.
But now we are all united again. Vlad failed.******** - of course, but salt into the wounds. It astounds me that people treat social media like a barometer for the state fo scoiety or whatever. The fact is the vastfadein11
- @fade maybe we personally have outgrown the world in a way, Idk
Meaning all the points we're discussing here are NOT easily understood by common folk these day******** - majority of western people are rational and don't give a fuck about what some pink haired teenager rants about in a lecture theatre in idaho. All that BSfadein11
- Literally I have to explain DAILY basic concepts to people and debunk fake news and propaganda nonstop
I'm just tired maybe******** - was never a threat to western society but if you get your world view from twitter it may well have seemed so (if a little gullible).fadein11
- Here on QBN except for a few "alternative challenged" individuals, I believe we're a fairly decent and smart bunch of cunts
But outside...damn******** - Russia used the tools very effectively with their US facilitators.fadein11
- pm me babes, these side notes aren't working :)fadein11
- :)) lol yeah we're 2 notes behind********
