Oh I guess I’m going to see the new Superman now.
Plot twist: it’s all a marketing scheme to get you to watch another shitty comic book movie.
Are Zionists (not the general Jewish population of the world) the biggest mess murdering babies in human civilization now adays?
Andor is just one such example of this.
This shit is why I joke that every work of fiction needs to end with the protagonist staring directly at the camera and explaining what the audience is supposed to take away from it, 1950’s style, because people are too stupid for subtlety. Yes, yes, very clever to name the site of a genocide “G[horman Pl]aza,” and have a character specifically emphasize the word “genocide” in a Senate chamber, but StrikeEagle784 sees all that and goes, “Wow, cool lasers” without understanding anything about anything.
Now, imagine if Andor ended with Cassian taking a seat and saying, “Hi, I’m Cassian Andor, and I hope you enjoyed the show. Were you moved by the plight of the Ghormans and inspired to fight the Empire? Well, just like how the Empire conducted a genocide against Ghorman, in real life, the US and Israel are committing genocide against the people of Gaza. That’s actually the reason why that’s in the show. Early on, I tried to turn a blind eye to injustice, but I found that ignoring the problem didn’t make it go away. This is also true in real life. In summary, the genocide in Gaza is bad and you should do something about it.”
Would that be stupid and annoying? Yes. But this is the level of art that we deserve. At least, it’s the level of art that StrikeEagle784 deserves.
That being said. Free palestine ♡
Hmm, sounds based, might actually watch it. I highly doubt the movie is anti-semitic but if it turns out to be I’ll be disappointed of course.
This complaint is such an admission. They can’t point to a single similarly between Israel and the bad guys in the movie except, “nation with technology advanced weaponry being deployed against unarmed civilians,” and they’re not even disputing that that’s an accurate depiction of what’s happening. It’s not like they’re saying, “this movie parallels Hamas propaganda.” They’re saying, “depicting colonial genocide negatively is anti-Israel.”
They aren’t asking that question. They know they are.
Reddit has been actively alienating users who despise fascism, so these pro-fash topical whinges are only going to grow more echo-chambery
Well, if the shoe fits.
I like how they don’t even bother saying it’s a lie. They just say it’s aimed at them.
you call them PRO-PALIS? does that mean youre ANTI-PALESTINE?? KIND OF A WEIRD THING TO SAY
Its crazy how they know it is about israel and they still support israel
What kind of Brainwashing is that
Woke is tolerance, empathy, and a desire for the betterment of all at the expense of none (from the best of my observations studying conservative media). These are all the things the Israeli state leadership and a disturbing plurality of Israeli citizens and zionists around the world ideologically oppose because addressing those tenets challenges their ability to justify genocide. Imperial Ethno-states cannot be woke, by definition, even if they dress themselves in the imagery and rhetoric of tolerance (the must Humane Army shit). So yeah, of course they’re gonna shit their pants over this ‘woke’ messaging in media, cause they desperately need to control the narrative of their crimes in Gaza. My sympathy to the horrifically oppressed there, and the Jewish people both in Israel and abroad who rightly and justly oppose the violence. May the Netanyahu criminal regime collapse as soon as possible.
Maybe if you didn’t colonize the land of brown people you would see no parallelism between the two. Hypocrites.
“we’re seeing similarities between us and fictional villains and we don’t like it”
If you see yourself in the bad guys actions, maybe do something else…
