I had not realized until tonight how early exposure to The Blues Brothers (1980) teaches a person to recognize Nazi dogwhistles, but I was linked to this article about a pseudo-Celtic fascist-prop TV series in attempted development and as soon as I read that "our present filmmaker froths about the Globalist Multicultural Romans bringing African soldiers over to oppress the Britons," I heard Henry Gibson through a bullhorn: "White men, white women, the swastika is calling you . . . The Jew is using the Black as muscle against you." Illinois Nazis.

You'd think people would just be grateful to get to watch Denzel Washington act, but noooooooooo.

Between poverty and pandemic, my chances of seeing Washington do Shakespeare in person are just about nil, so, seriously.

(I kind of want to introduce that whiner to to concept of "whitewashing" and its extensiveness, but better minds have probably already tried.)

Life is too short for Nazi sea lions. Real sea lions are much better.
