It's truly astounding how the satire from Not the 9'OClock News remains remarkably relevant even after four decades! 👍🏻

@zekelucente9702 Год назад

Think of all the great comedic movies that could never be made today. I remember reading 1984 in school and being sure Orwell was talking about conservatives, but instead it’s turned out that it’s the liberals that are against free speech.
