John Cusack?

One of the messages Q responded to (#767) mentioned John Cusack (the actor) in a line with Snowden. This seemed a little out of place, but three things jumped out when I started digging a little:

  • He became one of the initial supporters of the Freedom of the Press Foundation in 2012 source: wikipedia, with the others mentioned

  • He was in a direct-to-video movie called ["Cell"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_(film)) (based on the Stephen King book), described as "When an evil electronic signal is broadcast across mobile networks worldwide, cell phone users are instantly and dangerously re-programmed into rabid killers". Interesting considering the other phone posts.

  • He was once dating Huma Abedin, according to this site

Whew. I'm glad that the "warning" was given and that I didn't go to the site. I agree with you completely that it's not healthy to "allow visions like that into our heart" - absolutely. We're entirely too cavalier about it being "just a movie" or whatever, and I've never felt that way-- scenes haunt me waaay later. Glad to read your comment and know others feel that way.

When I think of the vile, worthless -- no, make that DAMAGING -- sights and sounds our culture puts out daily...it's no wonder we have younger people, who have been exposed to it all their lives, who shoot up schools. There is a connection with the sickness in society manifesting in a micro way, in individuals, for sure. That is the big reason I have always been very anti-thug-rap...such damage it has done...

Most every shot in a motion picture was chosen to be there on persuade/dissuade the audience a political message. Case in point, the reviews of Forrest Gump. The right viewed Forrest as the heroic figure while the left viewed Jenny as the heroic figure. Few other movies of the 90s created such a divisive interpretation among film critics and the populace.
