Key Points of Wisdom
- [00:09:48] "Movies are not just pieces of art. Movies are propaganda. And the way that you tell a story is the way that you are causing the audience to experience the events that you are telling them happen." (On the power of narrative in film)
- [00:26:57] "It's going to get them all enraged and get it, push them closer to the edge. It's like, no, it's not. Because this is very pro intelligence community, you know it shows them they're tackling the problem, they're going after the pedos, you know, don't worry about it." (On the film's portrayal of law enforcement)
- [01:12:23] "The people that told you that if you put a suit and tie on black people, it made them the same as white people paved the way for the trans movement that tells you that if you put a wig on a man, he's the same as a woman." (On social engineering and cultural shifts)
- [01:29:07] "I think the moral of all this is that we need to get involved by creating media and art that reflects our ideas and messages, because if we don't, someone else is going to fill that vacuum and it's going to get filled with stuff that's harmful." (On the importance of cultural participation)
- [02:29:21] "If you're just upper middle class or whatever, like a lot of those resources should be used for your children and not your hobbies. And I think that that change alone, I think that change in if we could get white people to invest more in the next generation and think in a child centric way, that is the inverse of how the boomers thought." (On generational responsibility)
