The “Debate Me Bro” Grift: How Trolls Weaponized The Marketplace Of Ideas from the debate-me-now-or-you-lose dept Among the attempts to create hagiographic eulogies of Charlie Kirk, I’ve seen more than a few people suggest that Kirk should be respected for being willing to talk to “those who disagree with him” as a sign that he was engaging in good faith.

Found-footage horror will never die—especially as long as the V/H/S anthology series keeps offering evidence there are still creative ways to use the format. Since 2012 we’ve had seven V/H/S entries, with an eighth, V/H/S/Halloween, arriving October 3. The series as a whole has captured a range of repulsive imagery, as its characters stumble into an alarming range of unnatural situations—with recording devices conveniently capturing everything.
