              Who are you to decide what a scene “needs”? He has a style and likes to stick to it. His style works perfectly for the films he’s trying to make.

              I seriously don't get why people keep going on about symmetry with Wes. He shoots so many fricking scenes with asymmetry, scenes where he easily could have made it symmetrical but obviously chose not to. Was it brought up in some youtube gays video essay and everyone just started parroting it afterwards or what? Are people just looking at symmetrical screenshots and think the whole movie looks like that, instead of someone simply taking the screenshot because the symmetry stood out in that scene?

            Probably. I remember them being a big thing a couple years ago where you'd take a picture and a website would animate the image singing a song.

              >The social disruption that we see today is certainly not the result of mere chance. It can only be a result of the conditions of life that the system imposes on people. (We have argued that the most important of these conditions is disruption of the power process.) If the systems succeeds in imposing sufficient control over human behavior to assure its own survival, a new watershed in human history will have been passed. Whereas formerly the limits of human endurance have imposed limits on the development of societies (as we explained in paragraphs 143, 144), industrial-technological society will be able to pass those limits by modifying human beings, whether by psychological methods or biological methods or both. In the future, social systems will not be adjusted to suit the needs of human beings. Instead, human being will be adjusted to suit the needs of the system.

              >Assuming that industrial society survives, it is likely that technology will eventually acquire something approaching complete control over human behavior. It has been established beyond any rational doubt that human thought and behavior have a largely biological basis. As experimenters have demonstrated, feelings such as hunger, pleasure, anger and fear can be turned on and off by electrical stimulation of appropriate parts of the brain. Memories can be destroyed by damaging parts of the brain or they can be brought to the surface by electrical stimulation. Hallucinations can be induced or moods changed by drugs. There may or may not be an immaterial human soul, but if there is one it clearly is less powerful that the biological mechanisms of human behavior. For if that were not the case then researchers would not be able so easily to manipulate human feelings and behavior with drugs and electrical currents.
