@chef_turkey it is extremely off. jefferson had peers who manumitted their slaves! — PolitiTweet.org
b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie
but like, the idea that kant or locke or hume are verboten is ridiculous — PolitiTweet.org
b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie
the other thing is that it is incredibly stupid to say that any of these enlightenment figures have been “canceled.” what has happened is that scholars are trying to integrate their racial views into their larger body of work — PolitiTweet.org
b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie
anyway i live in liberal charlottesville where we just held a festival named originally after jefferson and where his statue still stands at the university he founded (and which still holds him in high regard), so how canceled is he, really? — PolitiTweet.org
b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie
also, while there is real value in reading and engaging with jefferson — as both a thinker and a practical politician — his influence and import objectively pales in comparison to marx — PolitiTweet.org
b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie
sure marx had prejudiced views but he, wasn’t uh, a slaveowning planter — PolitiTweet.org
b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie
very interesting to argue that thomas jefferson has been unjustly maligned by the “woke left” without even so much as mentioning sally hemings — PolitiTweet.org

cannot say enough how good rosemary harris is in these movies, and how much this performance really lands in every way you could possibly want it to. when peter walks up the stairs after graduation and she just looks at him…perfection — PolitiTweet.org
b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie
@swolecialism the other thing they drop is that peter is kind of a little shithead, and part of his character is learning how to not be a shithead — PolitiTweet.org
b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie
@swolecialism yes. one of my big complaints about the MCU spider-man is that they completely dropped this part of the character — PolitiTweet.org
b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie
and i know people don’t like maguire’s performance, but especially in that first act, i think he nails steve ditko’s peter parker, who is a little shithead — PolitiTweet.org

read marvel stories from the 60s and the emotions are pitched at 11. it it may read as corny now, but i think it really works — PolitiTweet.org
b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie
so long-time followers know that i love these movies and i think they come the closest any superhero movie has come to capturing the feel of a silver age comic. and the reason why is that raimi seems to really get that comics are melodramas — PolitiTweet.org
b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie
really striking how they still haven’t found a better “uncle ben” performance than cliff robertson in this movie — PolitiTweet.org

yes! and he just *goes for it* whenever the scene calls for it. his transformation scene, when he gets hit with the green goblin gas, is so good — PolitiTweet.org

@jbouie he’s so beautifully intentional and engaged? just wholly present in every scene, absolute marvel of a man

picked up the raimi spider-man 4K set awhile back we’re watching that first movie. first, i can’t believe this movie is 20 years old. second, i love every single choice willem dafoe makes — PolitiTweet.org
