Capra isn't one for nuanced images of threats to America: Meet John Doe (1941) opens with a worker taking a literal jackhammer to the words "free press", raised stone lettering on a newspaper a office and replacing it with a cheap printed sign that says "a streamlined paper for a streamlined era".

Really enjoyed writing this piece and venting my frustrations about those who were outraged by woke m&Ms, trigger warnings etc and have had little to say about students being kidnapped for speech & thought crimes.

Remember folks, according to Labour MPs, the public is always right when it complains about immigrants. But it's always wrong when it demands sweeping renationalisation.

Why do people think he’s smart? This is ridiculous misinformation. When the United States was formed there were also customs inspectors and postmasters and light house keepers and judges and thousands of others. They made government function.

I’m tired of Good Morning Britain’s habit of discussing some culture wars issue by getting two obnoxious arseholes to debate it with Richard Madeley, & then finishing with ‘We ran a poll on X & 85% say “Rah, Rah, Rah, woke bad”’. The only reason to poll Twitter is to find out what neo-Nazis think.

This is enough to make me kvetch about the reactionary shallowness of (some) liberals. The casual conflation of concern about inequality with envy, as if there could be no other reason for such concern. And the cavalier belief that inequality implies opportunity and warrants gratefulness.
