My prediction is that "Rebel Moon" will have enough Snyder treat hogs needing to make excuses for it that there will be future "this is leftist, actually, because the Big Bad if you squint at it can actually look like nazis I guess" or even "the Synderesque Cornfield of Burgerland Sentimentality can look kind of like a commune if you squint and hold your breath long enough" or maybe just boil down to "let people enjoy things" thought terminating cliches, all the while the movie will push cartoonishly blatant up-yours-woke-moralists propaganda against straw communists. No one is immune to propaganda, least of all the "propaganda has no effect on me" believers, so I predict that'll be a struggle session.

I expect I will be told to touch grass a lot by that treat's future defenders if it has even a moderate amount of profitability, which would consequently make local hogs want to make excuses for it instead of admitting it's hog-feeding chud propaganda and just eating it anyway with acceptance, which I would respect somewhat more. feast

Not until this evening in the US

Former president Donald Trump is expected to leave his club in New Jersey later this afternoon with a coterie of aides, according to people familiar with the trip, and will turn himself in this evening.

Edit: Some people are saying 7 PM ET
