Gotta move those goalposts rights?

K keep telling yourself whatever you have to so that you can feel smart 😉

It’s not an assumption, it’s reality and takes all of 10 seconds to google. Do you think there’s no stats available on movies or just like to hold your fingers in your ears when presented with the truth?

You’re a fucking moron if you honestly think this is anything other than recency bias.

1960s had more heist movies than the last 30 years combined.

It’s just you. I’m guessing you’re in the age bracket where these movies are being marketed to you.

I’ll be waiting patiently for your semantic objection to something inconsequential in one of my sources so that you don’t have a bruised ego 😄

Right on cue, champ!

Honestly if you can’t see how invoking monsters to inspire fear is just a rudimentary employment of psychological warfare, I’m not sure you have any business speaking to psychology as a whole.

You’re completely wrong, but go off sister! Love seeing misplaced confidence and arrogance in an area I’m intimately familiar with.

If I call it a trowel and you call it a spade, they’re not different things.

If mine is made of paper and yours is made of aluminum, they’re still not different things.

Part of the issue is past revolutions didn’t have a ruling class that literally employed the best psychologists that money can buy

They absolutely did, except they weren’t called psychologists and they were much less effective.
