por qué se repite tanto la homosexualidad y la misoginia, ¿qué tienen en común? (hombres).
crítica acertada, aplica de manera eterna, whatever, whatever. deja de ser innovador para volverse deprimente, y es tan real que es misógino. las mujeres aquí no existen más que para representar un despertar sexual hacia los hombres.

sinceramente no se como empezar a describir tan buena obra.
pulls you in by tricking you and then we're playing chess against stalin, lidiando con el problema de existir en una ideological vacuum y recordándonos que el hombre sigue sin poder (y tal vez nunca podrá) separar su caos del orden.
podría criticarle ciertos eventos que pudieron servir para, maybe, una mejor inmersión psicológica pero... aaaaah, man suspended.
