The implication was that the FBI has better things to do than to assist Hollywood in turning the world into a police state because they don't want to adjust their business models to fit 2013.
There are lots and lots of people in the US, for example, who should be prosecuted for their financial crimes, but are not, and will not be because that's how the world works these days.
- pyre 14y agoWhat does WikiLeaks releasing US Government secrets have to do with Hollywood? This just seems like a, "Hey this story is about the FBI, and I hate the FBI! Everybody let's pile on and bash the FBI for completely unrelated reasons!"
- white_devil 14y agoThe GP talked about FBI and Hollywood. But to be more specific, the FBI represents the US government, and there are plenty of reasons to hate it.
- pyre 14y agoThe GP also said that the FBI investigating WikiLeaks in Iceland was somehow pushing Hollywood's agenda, which is a pretty weak position.
- white_devil 14y agoSure, it may well be. I just clarified why I was talking about FBI and Hollywood together. But really, Hollywood has actually changed the Western world towards police states. That's bad, regardless of what agencies or "channels" they've done it through.
