Schauspieler Moritz Bleibtreu ist neuerdings auch als Regisseur tätig. Als Schauspieler zählt er zweifellos zu den Besten, die wir in #Deutschland haben. Um nur eine herausragende Leistung zu benennen, sei seine Darstellung des Bruno #Klement in Oskar #Roehlers Verfilmung aus dem Jahr 2006 des Weltbestsellers „Elementarteilchen“ von Michel #Houellebecq erwähnt. Was für eine Zusammenarbeit mit Bernd #Eichinger und Oliver #Berben als Produzenten und Corinna #Harfouch sowie weiteren hochkarätigen deutschem Personal auf der Besetzungsliste. Die Frankfurter Allgemeine nannte den Film damals zwar eine „kleine lebenszeitvernichtende Ewigkeit“, andere aber schauen #Elementarteilchen heute schon wie einen #Kultfilm in Widerholungsschleife. So verhält sich eben bisweilen die Diskrepanz zwischen Filmkritik und Filmpublikum. Zwischen Geschmack und Gefallen.
[…]
Zunächst einmal bezieht Moritz Bleibtreu seine überraschende Kritik auf die Situatin des deutschen Films. Der wäre am Boden, weil die Deutschen ihre nationale Identität verloren hätten. So hätte es der deutsche Film beispielsweise verlernt, von Heldenfiguren zu erzählen, mit denen sich der Zuschauer identifizieren könnte. Interessant dürfte hier sein, inwieweit Bleibtreu erst im Rahmen seiner eigenen Regiearbeit erahren musste, was gerade auch in der Filmförderung, auf die fast jeder neue deutsche Film angewiesen ist, wie da mittlerweile schon verbindliche Diversity-Checklisten #Grundbedingung für den Antrag von #Fördergeldern sind.
Und wenn der alte weiße heterosexuelle deutsche Bleibtreu in seinem Regiedebüt auch gleich die Hauptrolle spielt neben der deutschen weißen Nadja Uhl, dann kann es eben eng werden für #Fördergelder – aber das bleiben #Mutmaßungen.
Moritz Bleibtreu möchte von diesem „blöden Minderwertigkeitskomplex“ der Deutschen wegkommen. Das wäre aber auf „absehbare Zeit“ kaum zu schaffen, angesichts besagter „kaputter nationale® Identität“ sei das leider nicht möglich, sagte er in einem kurzen Interview mit der Nachrichtenagentur Teleschau. Jetzt ist die Vita von Bleibtreu alles andere als geprägt von einer Suche nach einer deutschen Identität. Seine Filmografie erzählt bisweilen eher das Gegenteil als einen künstlerischen Blick in die deutsche Seele – wie auch immer. Jedenfalls dann, so man davon ausgeht, Bleibtreu verstehe unter „nationaler Identität“ das Gleiche wie mutmaßlich die Mehrheit der Deutschen. Diese Mehrheit allerdings ist aktuell zunächst unter dem Eindruck einer jahrelangen Massenmigration und zuletzt den Corona-Maßnahmenpaket der Regierung nachhaltig verstört.

Michael Hastings uncovered the early build‑out of U.S. metadata surveillance and classified intelligence operations by showing how NSA and allied agencies harvested billions of phone records, email headers and internet communications under secret court orders and classified directives that bypassed traditional warrants. He traced how the Patriot Act and subsequent statutes fused counterterrorism, foreign intelligence gathering and domestic law enforcement into a pervasive monitoring apparatus, laying groundwork for public debate long before Snowden’s 2013–14 disclosures. On June 18, 2013 Hastings died in a high‑speed, single‑vehicle crash in Los Angeles after voicing fears of being followed. The crash’s extreme violence, total destruction of his car and anomalies in the forensic data fueled suspicions of electronic tampering. No official inquiry found foul play, yet many journalists and investigators believe his exposés of sensitive military and intelligence programs may have played a role. Vault 7 leaks in 2017 revealed that by October 2014 the CIA’s Embedded Devices Branch had engineered malware and firmware backdoors targeting vehicle control systems—capable of covertly manipulating brakes, steering and engine management—demonstrating that intelligence agencies had the tools to weaponize modern automobiles.

Very likely though, the longer you talk, the worse it will get. Therefore any technique that isn't giving up your right to silence and council is sub-optimal.
Just checking, assuming 'giving up your right to silence' should be 'asserting your right to silence'? Giving up that right would be suboptimal, no? Or am I misunderstanding something here?

But I'm also against fossil fuel bans, against bans on firearms, pro military for defence, pro free-speech, pro strict immigration, against 'PC' culture, against trans-women in women's sports, pro merit success.
Am I left or right? ...Or centrist?
You sound like a bog standard social conservative.
Please name the trans women athletes who have won Olympic medals during the many years they've been allowed to compete. They have a clear advantage, right, so it should be easy to find.
I'll wait.
stillmed.olympics.com/media/Do…
Sports decide themselves, of which world rowing and boxing have blanket bans. Athletics, cycling, swimming, rugby and cricket are bans if the transition was after puberty. Triathlon, tennis and archery requires testosterone testing. And all other sporting bodies are on a case by case basis.
That's why we don't see them because the Olympics themselves have said:
high-level organised sporting competitions - relies on a level playing field, where no athlete has an unfair and disproportionate advantage over the rest.
I'm tired of replying to everyone, please put more effort into your argument
Please stop gobbling right wing propaganda and make a sensible argument yourself, and then we can have a discussion. "centrist".
You won't though. So don't waste people's time.
I didn't, I cited the literal Olympics. I have cited medical studies, and I have defended my position where everyone then returns to insults and statements like this.
Unless you have evidence that what I said was incorrect, you are infact wrong. One, only ONE person has cited one study that is inconclusive and I congratulated them because at least they showed there is some conflicting research but you haven't even bothered to try.
If you are going to throw your opinion around, at least back it up with weight. Cite studies, link articles, or form a proper argument, because if I can refute your claim before I've even had my morning coffee than you still have room to make a half decent point.
You never bothered to look into it. You decided that since trans people are banned now, they must always have been banned. They were allowed to play for a long time before the ban, in fact, and none of the scare mongering was true. There was no trans domination.
You don't really care though. That you care about the issue at all is evidence you've fallen for the conservative campaign against trans people, because it's an entirely invented issue. You listened to what the conservative pundits said, maybe you even read one of the Heritage Foundation's studies. But you have no fucking idea what you're talking about, and I've been having this argument with fucking "centrists" like you for over a decade who think we're a fine scapegoat for your socially acceptable bigotry.
You aren't a centrist. There is no center when one side wants the elimination of the other, and that's the ultimate end goal here. You think you're having a dandy little political discussion, but this is just a stepping stone on the campaign to convince the public that trans women are men and therefore trans people are sick, and need to be removed from society. When you run around and parrot their talking points on a subject you know little about its not a fun debate, it's plain bigotry and its not fucking welcome.
Huh!? This isn't a troll, I'm an example of a centrist. The term 'centrist' exists for a reason, and plenty of people such as myself think this way although I will admit, I have met very few unfortunately.
What makes me seem like a liar?
