Trouble is brewing
The anger is stewing
They say one of ours
All of yours
Power whores
Their lies stoking anger and violence
The majority are no longer silent
Shifting narratives
Calling it a narrative is a lie
As we watch our citizens die
They attempt to structure their version of events
As the anger laments
Attempting to lull us into the fallacy of their imagined reality
They design it to entertain or persuade us
But we know the truth
They hate us
As they bait us into a battle against ourselves
Our rights are shelved
In pursuit of higher power
Unsatisfied
As we watch our world devoured

10 Times Rotten Tomatoes and I Disagreed
***Disclaimer*** I will be ranking these movies in the following manner: The greater the divide between Rotten Tomatoes and I, the higher up on the list (and I am referring to the critic's score, not the audience score). I will also show Rotten Tomatoes' score on each one in addition to my score. I am curious to know what everyone thinks, please let me know in the comments below!
