  • “Centrists will never admit this…”

    centrists, and most people now, agree with both of those things, what are you talking about?

    you have a non-argument.

    you’re trying to rile up anger by safely condemning the imaginary offenses of a vague minority that you likely belong to.

    “If any centrist wants to admit that supporting genocide”

    centrists don’t support genocide, and if you think otherwise then you clearly don’t know anything about what’s happening in Palestine or in your own country.

    “For the first time.”

    you got to read some books. articles, watch an interview or two.

    If you are unaware of what’s happening and what people are saying, that is your fault, not some vague political minority that you’re ascribing your insecurities and ignorance to.






  • A few different film techniques.

    they could film the actor in different costumes on the same set without moving the camera, and then they put those performances together.

    so you can have the profile of Austin powers on the left talking to the profile of Dr. evil on the right, and those were separate performances pasted together so it looks like they’re responding to each other even though Mike Myers was performing those conversations separately during different recordings.

    If evil and Austin are in the same shot and it’s an over-the-shoulder, the actor facing the camera is the real actor and the guy not facing the camera is a body double with the same hair or bald mask

    so if you were looking at Austin and Dr. evil in the same shot, either those are two separate performances put together and you’ll see that they never touch each other, or if they do touch each other, you’ll notice that you never see the frontal face of one of the actors, which is actually a body double.

    and you can see these two techniques and others used in Eddie Murphy’s movies, or pretty much any body double move movie.
