Honestly that’d be funny as fuck.

You also disgusted with people obsessed with Warhammer or DND?

It’s 50:50 two things.

Some Wardrobe guys don’t like dressing actors as ‘real’ soldiers, so they fudge things. The other is that something will aesthetically look ‘better’ than the real thing so they just go with that. I’ve worked on a few military projects and it’s entirely dependent on the military costumer and what they want to do.

One picture I was a Russian mercenary and they threw random ranks on everyone. The costumer thought I was nice so he gave me an FSB velcro patch that I got to keep, which was pretty cool. Another I played a SEAL and we had some well known SEAL dudes behind the film, so they were very attention to detail on everything so that was really cool.

The other side of this is, ‘it’s a movie suspend some disbelief.’

The idea that every single aspect of a show or movie needs to line up and be ‘realistic’ is silly, and frankly needs to just die.

It’s pretend.

Cuban Fury isn’t accurate?

Because it’s a movie trope. And if people did it the ‘right’ way people wouldn’t believe it.

Like, phones sound like ‘phones’ because we have the tech to make them sound crystal clear, but people don’t want that they want the phone sound.

Yeah seriously most engineers I’ve ever met have a chronic case of sociopathy.

You have no idea what you’re talking about.

Banning homeless encampments is not fascism 101.

Oh cool.

For sure! I just hate that so many people have strong opinions on this shit then do nothing, don’t educate themselves on the problems at hand, and then acknowledge that people on the ‘other side’ of an issue have actual concerns that do need addressed.

I’d fucking love it if we had our homeless problem under control, and I firmly do believe we would if all the fucking red states would stop bussing THEIR problems here.

I’ve been in LA for 9 years and I’ve seen the changes that are taking place. Bike lanes are rampant on the west side, and they’re starting to come to places like Weho and others as well which is awesome. We’re expanding our subway lines, and things slowly are getting better. I wish we would take a big TVA style initiative, and make some dense public housing districts that were affordable, but that’s a HUGE endeavor.

I’d love to get involved with local stuff like that, but I’m currently in a new job, and don’t have much free time right now. =(

Another thing to think about here is that it’s only been about 4 months of this dipshit being in charge.

They are comparing what is happening now to other episodes of revolution or cultural rebellion that took (sometimes) decades to foment enough unrest to cause change.

People are doing things, and we’re pissed. But like, what can a person living in LA effectively do? We have blue reps in a blue state that is suing the government multiple times over multiple grievances.

Short of going out and getting kinetic there’s not much for people to ‘do’ yet.

Honestly I wish we had the balls to turn LA into New York West Coast Edition. I’m right by the Wilshire line being built, and I cannot wait to be able to take public transit from my place to LAX to Grand Central in NYC.

Thanks for giving a real answer and not jingoistic slactivism nonsense you see so many people spouting on here. <3

I’ll take a look at that video later when I have more time on my hands.

Hell yeah lets go. Good for these guys.

Dude, I don’t think the state of Israel should exist period. Don’t act like you know any of my positions regarding this issue.

TIL wanting people to not live in homeless encampments that are dangerous is fascist. Thanks for that. Lets see you take in the guy who mumbles to himself and is addicted to heroin into your home and treat him how about that?

Where you going to build affordable housing in west LA?

There’s literally no place for it. Should people living in Venice just be given beachfront housing for free to live in?

Whats your SOLUTION to the problem? Because like I said. There are multiple reasons there’s a homeless epidemic across the entire country.

Funny how you guys have latched onto Gaza like shit on velcro, but have not had a single thing to say about Sudan, Myanmar, and the Uighur’s being ethnically cleansed.

You just found a hot button cause to latch onto, and are trying to sound morally superior to people.

The other issue that you forgot to mention is a lot of red states take their homeless people and send them to California.

I live in LA. I’ve been threatened by people who are homeless. Multiple times. Yes, these people deserve help. But there’s a billion reasons why our current system isn’t working and part of that is the state can’t institutionalize these people to get them clean from drugs and to help start them on the pathway to being a productive citizen again.

I live in the Miracle Mile area, and I do not give a shit about someones ‘right’ to camp on the sidewalk with a huge ass tent that smells of shit. Sorry, but that’s a public health hazard.

Do I want people to get help? Absolutely. Do I think that people who live in these areas also deserve to live in a safe and clean environment? Absolutely.

Something has to be done, at least Gavin is trying things.

It’s amazing isn’t it?

These people have such moral purity that they abstain from voting and… help hurt fucking children.

They, in their inaction, are as responsible for the current situation as the republicans are.

This is false though.

One side is bad, the other side has some people who are bad.

That is not the same thing.
