Another photo from the Sonic 2019 movie set.  Looks like they actually flipped MULTIPLE cars.

Folks have pointed out the swastikas on the building’s facade – the “Hillsman Hotel” is the movie’s name for a building actually called the Traveller’s Hotel.  I looked it up, and it turns out the building was built in 1913, back when the swastika was still known as a symbol of peace and prosperity, before WWII associated the term with Nazism.  Here’s where I got that information.

I wonder if the film crew plans to edit them out of the final cut? It would certainly be easier than to hope everybody watching the film the world over understands this bit of obscure history from such a small town as Ladysmith.

They’ll probably edit them out, but I can’t help but wonder if they’ll be used to teach Sonic about how a symbol for peace was twisted into something evil somehow.

…all due respect, I think that might get a little too real for a Sonic the Hedgehog movie. XD

Sonic vs the Nazis like a WW II propaganda film.

Sonic says: Buy Bonds!

Why Jeff Bezos wants Amazon employees to ‘wake up every morning terrified’

Amazon is the one where even execs can be found sobbing at their desks. There was an article with an ex-high ranking employee talking about it. It’s ironic and strange, and makes for its own anti-meritocracy/anti-capitalism point–what’s the point of excelling and rising to the top, if you’re going to be miserable and afraid up there? Most people desire to reach the top for the rewards. At most corporations things are horrible on the bottom but get better as you move up in position.

Given what I’ve heard of Amazon workplace for the higher-ups, I can’t imagine they’re enjoying their rewards much. Toxic workplaces rob your life of any joy. Amazon is some sick shit.
