#Purge: The Election Year

[remembertheplunge]

These entries were written in 2016 just before the Presidential election between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.

I had gone to see a movie Called Purge: Election Year.

The following is an edited version of my journal entries from 7/22/2016 and from 9/9/2016:

The movie "Purge" was great! X. cellent! About 30 others there---they were young, mostly non white. Great. Hope that the movie revs up the young people who saw it up. There is something wrong here in America. Where were the older people, the white older people? Why weren't they at the movie? I guess that I saw it for them.

The movie was about what MAC was talking about, the Government exterminating the fringe people. Including me, an extreme fringe-ee. The movie had perfect pre Presidential election timing.

My 9/9/2016 margin note written along the side of one of the entries reads: "My friend said that about 5 naked Trump Statues showed up around the country, including one on The Castro in San Fransisco!"

Note: The 2016 Presidential election was held on Tuesday, November 8, 2016.

You take risks, Senator. My job is to eliminate risks and keep you alive. You don't make that easy. The soul of this country is at stake. The only way that I can win is to risk everything, and that includes my life.

I think we should be able to say whatever we want the day after the election. I should be able to say kill yourself to everyone wearing Trump merch. While I'm working even.

The most unrealistic scene in all five Purge movies: A woman being elected president to stop something that negatively affects the majority of the country.

The most realistic scene in all five Purge movies: The woman immediately being voted out to bring back something that negatively affects the majority of the country.

I'm just gonna keep posting this.

[ID: A blue poster with a white border, and alternating white and pale blue text that reads, “Charlie Roan for President 2024 - vote our fascism”. The name “Charlie” and “vote out fascism” are in cursive, the rest is regular font, in all caps. End ID.]

SUMMARY: After its 30 year long run, the Purge, the 12-hour long event where all crime is legal, is brought to its political stand as citizens of United States get to elect the following President of the country. These political times raise the turbulence among the people in the main night…

I loved how "The Purge" movies began with a pulpy concept with a sprinkling of satire and the odd mainstream rennaissance/reinvention of the magnificent Ethan Hawke, then IMMEDIATELY embraced B-Movie and biting, vicious satire, skewering race, class, faith, violence and American society over its sequels. What a Trojan Horse, touche movies.

Plus, Frank Grillo. And Frank Grillo having punch dagger fights with a Neo-Nazi in a car park. (The First Purge isn't as good, but has its moments: namely a villain dressed like The Gestapo hunting black people through corridors)
