There goes my cynical idealism again… There is no
shortage
of politically motivated cartoons on the web,
but I leave
the assessment of the content of these up to
you.
and my own cynical idealism prompts
a more jaundiced response: if
the content/substance of the expressions
of grass-roots ideas and
ideologies on the web is itself far
from encouraging, then why suppose
changing the super-structure that is
the film industry would in any
way change the infra-structure?
. . . a more "democratic" system of film
production would likely support the
very ideas whose expression adam
seems to find far from unproblematic
