yeah I'm not surprised, I watched the prequels. This guy was a legend in the 70s, that is like 50 years ago.

He hasn't done anything great since co-writing Willow 40 years ago. Go to his IMDB, he's lived out of star wars nostalgia since then, and all of them after the initial trilogy was a downgrade.

Is it the worst part? I think the worst part is that is happening. And yes, this definitely gives me anti-EU sentiment. (And I have always been pro-EU)

The problem with today's politics is the cult mentality that comes with it. There is such "keep supporting our team" rethoric that fucking politicians count on it. We should just hold them accountable.

This is my line in the sand, Fuck EU, Fuck all the parties voting yes, and Fuck every-fucking-one.

If everyone is acting fascist, there is no point on trying to stop fascism. And whether you like it or not this is Fascist as fuck.

I hear you, but also, in capitalism everything turns into, at the very least, oligopoly. So, giving that there is no running from it in any aspect of our lives, let us at least celebrate the good things while they last. If we pre-complain, what is even the point of them being good? That idea of "no monopoly/oligopoly" doesn't exist unfortunately, like, AT ALL, specially in the business of intangible media/goods. The anti valve campaign is fueled by companies that would get all if they win, as all these movements, they claim to protect the mom and pop indie games, but is bullshit. It would be horrible from day 1, because they are already horrible without having the majority of the clients.
