Everything upsets MAGA. They’re petulant children in desperate need of a nap. Sadly, they are using that energy to ruin lives, and destroy a country.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

I hate the director for deciding to associate a fictional character with societal issues.
Has there been any movie where fictional characters aren't associated with societal issues? I ask because I'm pretty sure every single movie does this.
Edit: OP Deleted their comment.
Superman got into the action 85 years ago.

Superman is woke and also "antifa".
{shudders, and clutches pearls harder}
That's wild. Superman fought the KKK and Nazis. He fought for equal rights. My man threw nuclear missiles into the sun in the 80s for demilitarization. Superman is a political figure fighting for a better society. He just also happens to fight big space monsters from time to time as well.
Show me a piece of fiction which has nothing to say about societal issues and I'll show you a fucking boring piece of fiction.
Show me a piece of fiction which has nothing to say about societal issues and I’ll show you an author or reader who doesn’t understand literature.
I don’t think it’s even possible for a participant in society to write something that has nothing to do with society. We are all affected by our environments. Fish might not notice the ocean, but it doesn’t mean that they could write something that doesn’t involve the ocean, to really stretch a metaphor.
its like people that get angry at rage against the machine for singing about politics.
... that is the whole point.
They claim that they don't want movies talking about politics, but I bet they'd have no issue if the movie was anti-immigration
people who say they don't like politics in videogames actually like politics even more, they just wish they were seeing different politics

To the limbo 'how low can you go'
How dumb can you get? How dumb can you get?
Party of "fuck your feelings" huh? MAGA biggest cry babies out there. Guess it makes sense.
Science bless you James Gunn. Keep fighting the good fight.
I can't help but feel like when Hollywood switched to ME villains instead of nazis, it really had a large sociological effect.
Not that it was intentional propaganda, just that 20 years of "anything to stop poor brown people in the desert" had an effect different than "anything to stop the genocidal fascists".
It's because the scary Boogeyman has to be relevant. USA needed people to get onboard with current wars, not old wars.
There were also plenty of movies about the scary Russians too in that specific political time.
Lex Luthor: Make America Great Again! Krypton has not sent us their best or finest. Kryptonians are all rapists and drug dealers. Also, I am looking at stripping Bruce Wayne and Diana Prince of their citizenship because they say mean things about me.
