Relatedly, “mano negra” does not mean “black man.” It doesn’t exactly mean “black hand,” either

this isn't just a MAGA thing, it's a cross-American one and *especially* a lot of people who came of age in politics or punditry in the 1990s. the idea that the news could happen to them - that the world might not be all going their way - is genuinely brain-breaking to a lot of them

And Rashomon. The name has become cliche, but the film is phenomenal
