I think you could argue it was always about Alien sexual assault?
I dunno if Dune is necessarily a weird niche thing because it’s been a bestseller for nearly six decades and there were two previous adaptations of the original novel (plus the sequels, if you include the Sci-Fi miniseries). Like LotR it was just looking for the right moment and the right director. And you could argue…
Someone with better video editing and AI skills than me get us a video of Feyd Rautha licking an ice cream cone instead of a knife.

funny enough Jack deleted his Bluesky account recently. he doesnt like how Bluesky is basically being used as a twitter replacement and not some shitty scamcoin crypto bro mecca. hes been using his old twitter and advocating for the shit bag RFK Jr.
I genuinely don’t get it.
And three reasons to avoid it:
No, people are worried about CSAM because if it exists, isn’t squashed, and people aren’t jailed for it, then it leads to more of it being created which means more abused children.
So based purely on your limited, anecdotal evidence, you’re saying these researchers (who unlike you, performed actual research) are wrong?
