Nelson Mandela, 1918-2013

We forgive our heroes their faults, but I hope we don’t paint over them. No one is perfect, but some pretty hard to make their country, their world that way for everyone. Knowing Hollywood, they will make bad movies that make a lot of money and good movies that are entirely ignored by general audiences, because they didn’t get the right amount of advertising for their movie. Hollywood honestly carries too much social weight- the video game industry doesn’t get to call itself art but it still makes more money. Which since I’m going off topic here, no, they will make bad movies about it now if the one with Idris Elba was any good or not. Can’t be making a saint look bad.

Sort of a sidenote from my rant, hoping incredible people are born to lead countries out of their dark ages mindset and then making them suffer extraordinary lengths to get there sucks. And rich countries letting themselves atrophy due to indifference needs to stop too.
