@raponte1955 lmao. No, Turek losing had nothing to do with any desperateness. It had to do with philosophical and logical sluggishness. I've never been so frustrated at someone who is supposed to be so "wise", as he apparently claims his bible to have made him.

@Churros1616 Much more specifically, a Quebecois film. The Canadian and Quebecois cinemas are actually quite different, in a good number of ways. If I'm not mistaken it was filmed in Montréal, although many of the actors speak with a Parisian (or otherwise France) accent... just to be clear haha.

@ModernBabylon I understand. However the term of choice, "human right", conveys more than just legal status, it conveys a right you can claim merely by virtue of being human. Perhaps he MEANT another phrase, but regardless it is still nonsense.
