A Black story, predominately Black cast and Black director and writer. And it is the hottest movie out, and it is ringing the register. This is historic i read Cynique's link. yeah the movie has some societal issues. But it is worthy of discussion. Look at the range of characters. The tech head , the warriors, revolutinary, killers, theives. Yet they are undeniably black without being sterotypical. Black peope posting their exuberance and disdain. Man this is like Obama but with a better ending.

If I had a love affair that isn't working and has me feeling low. I would rather listen to love songs sad or happy might work, than someone explain what is happening to my physiology or psychology. I want to find some meaning for my situation. As opposed to some knowledgeable psychologist telling me some facts. For me Mythology/poetry/music centers around both meaning and feeling. Science is in a different sphere. However both can assist in defining identity.

Thank you for clarifying that, Zaji. @Troy is that clear to you now. I would believe it that's your modus operandi.
-
Troy you are the first person to mention it was banned. I posted it but I didn't mention it was banned. I also stated I hadn't watched it yet. @Troy Zahir and Mel both commented on the link. So it should be pretty easy to find.

Because music can create change or deepen a mood. A song has assisted me end a relationship and quit a job. If you haven't experienced this try listening to a movie without the soundtrack.

It isn't important enough for you to check. It was important enough that I supplied a link and encouragement. Not certain why you think our positions are similar.
-
Why should I spend my time when it isn't that important to you? Or why ask me to do something you can do for yourself. Because it saves you time by me doing the leg work. Which sounds like I am your secretary or executive assistant .
-
My encouraging you to look it up doesn't cast doubt on my statement. You may not be aware but the above statement makes it sound like I work for you. It is clear that you don't care that much . Therefore I will expend the same amount of energy . No problem bro.

It signals that it's the best movie in the MCU. And Black orphans are going to love it.

Art mirroring life. I would also include love songs.
-
I prefer mythology to both.
-
Because facts are cold comfort to a broken heart.
-
They both have their hierophants.
-
They both have belief sets. They both are ways to understand the world. And while it operating in different sphere they both assume their way is right.

Facts/science are trumped by poetry/mythology, at least for me. https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/17908/whats-the-difference-between-weltanschauung-and-worldview

Troy I believe you said that you either don't have time or don't care to edit your post. I had a few people comment that my post were sometimes unreadable. That was two years ago. In addition to not being your executive reader I am not your secretary. If you have neither the time nor inclination to be clear that's fine. It's is better for you, if I say what isn't clear. It is better for you and the forum if you were clearer. I guess it's more effecient to listen to a clip than to lookup up the info or even click the link about the author. Which didn't seem to be a problem for other people. I use to have a lot of typos and be a bit more cryptic. I have upgraded, I proof , post definitions and the etymological roots of words . I am also a bit more stringent in word usage and meaning. Now this doesn't mean that anyone has to take my definition but it does create a basis for understating. Or not.

If you dont care to spend the time yo find out why ask me to spend my time. What you have written isn't very clear to me. If you have the time or the interest you may want to proofread your post.

Because I think you should make up your own mind after reading the evidence. Plus I am not a executive reader Because I think you should make up your own mind after reading the evidence. Plus I am not a executive reader

Cool I am all about people thinking for themselves.

I am not always oppositional. I am just making a finer distinction. Some concepts can be validated.

You can verify this simply by going to Ted.

My sister is in Tampa.

If a theory is analogous to a concept, it can be proven reasonably.

I don't think it is possible to verify most information. Which is partially why I sat there are no facts.

Objectivity is more elusive than thinking for yourself. At least it is for me.
