I remember when Eazy E was invited to have dinner with Bush Sr. thanks to a computer glitch. When he showed up the white house CNN was in total panic acting like the apocalypse was amongst us.

In a world of polarized extremes, be the moderate and reasonable middle ground... Too much of anything is a bad thing.

@freemo Yup. Scare people into giving up more freedoms and protections from the government. Scare them enough, and they'll be excited to live under a government as repressive as China's, as long as it's called democracy.

Dr. That is why I want to write the script to make it sell.
Donald Trump had another accomplishment. He proved that Professional wrestling was more realistic and better scripted than U.S. politics. :D
I have written on paper at least 100 ways that the national debt could be resolved.
I'm not a very good citizen due to not caring about the news. I listen to Mathew Lesko, when I visit a local city hall, compliment the lady, bring gifts, and try to make their jobs entertaining.
When using the internet, look at every form as a act of filling out a dating application.

@twotwenty YEa I mostly agree. Thing with "Fallacy of Accent" is if its done intentionally or not. A person can say one thing, and argue for hours and once backed into a corner and know they are wrong claim they meant something entierly different, presuming their original statement is ambiguous enough. When it is used intentionally to flip your story it can be be quite annoying.

Is a vegan ham radio operator called a tofu radio operator? Asking for a friend.

After some research I found a few names used for this in the industry. It is called an "Eye bar", a "Shatner light" or, "Kirk light". Apparently It originated in classic black and white films. I cant verify this but it seems it was either first done or made popular by the 1931 Dracula film (image attached) which at least 3 black and white remakes all used the same Eye bar lighting. It then started to be used in other Genres and films including Star Trek the original series where it was used extensively for Kirk (images attached), thus the name Kirk/Shatner light. It was also used in the Harry Potter movies at least once.
As mentioned in the OP it was so common it was used as a running joke in the Addam's Family films anytime Morticia was in a shot (see the original post for an example).

Anyone know the name of the lighting technique used quite often in classic films, particularly noir filrms, where they would shine a beam of light ...
@Bradley_JF The script changes every few years but its generally always the same deal: over inflated fear mongering usually targeting a large though sub-minority group. At least since 9/11 onward we see fear-based politics as the norm.
What is your favorite kind of curd?
