Thread 148988299

According to peple who saw the new movie, it's now about the dangers of capitalism and Napoleon is a not-so-subtle parody of Donald Trump

Why?

>>148988299 (OP)
You have to admit Donald Trump does look a lot like a pig, though.

>>148988299 (OP)
Because Babylon needs more easily-deconstructed black propaganda to make people rally behind the current Puppet King.

of course animal farm would say orange man bad. who the fuck is genuinely and not performatively surprised?

Here’s a genderswap Trump

Who'd've guessed...

I guess shit like this explains why barely anyone is talking about what they saw at CN's annecy premieres. Too busy talking about politcs. Like fucking always.
>dude CN was just revivals and spinoffs
Yeah, and the entire crowd there ate it up and have all the reason in the world to get fandom interest for reporting the trailers and clips. Instead it's this shit so people can talk about politics like they haven't said enough the past decade.

>>148988299 (OP)
trump derangement syndrome, they think every single villain in media was inspired by trump one way or another

>>148988525
True that. There was an Anon the other day trying to argue that Lex Luthor was a metaphor for Trump kek

Leftists never realize that all of Orwell's works are criticizing the Leftwing party and showing how batshit crazy they are when given power.

>>148988299 (OP)
Its got Seth Rogan in. of course Trump is gonna be in it, Rogan is obsessed. On a related note, comparing Trump to Stalin instead of Hitler is new.
>>148988306
I dont know avout about that, but I do know you look like a faggot.

>>148988567
Cold War brained gen Xers have been comparing Trump to Stalin since Russia gate and emboldened by The Ukrainian invasion.

>>148988306
No shit he is a pig.

It's honestly kind of amazing the lengths liberals will go to avoid self-reflecting. Just adapt a different story instead of one that goes against your beliefs.
Also, Hollywood elites lecturing you on how bad capitalism is.

>>148988567
Call down, Jr. Daddy Trump feelings will be okay.

>>148988583
Bullshit, the only people I have EVER seen that man compared to are Hitler and MAYBE Mussolini.

Please. You can like the man all you want but he clearly resembles a human pig.

>>148988555
Orwell was a socialist himself, 1984 was just anti-authoritarian

>>148988752
>and they're all pulled-punches made to be easy for YouTube reactionaries to pull apart
You left that part out.

>>148988799
it was specifically anti stalinist
orwell was a leftist but he despised the left

>>148988840
oh sorry, I thought we were talking about the target of the commentary. not the quality of a film no one here has seen. please let me know in advance of the next goalpost shift

>>148988689
But anon, then they wouldnt be able to hijack famous stories and make them all about THEIR beliefs.
>>148988702
Hi Seth, you might wanna calm down with the weed. You ain't typing right.

>>148988689
Can you imagine all the time they spent reading Animal Farm and scripting this fucking abomination and still forcing themselves to go

>>148988299 (OP)
Because they're quite literally indoctrinated. Their entire ideology just needs a centralized leader and it would qualify for the textbook definition of a cult.

>alt right losing their fucking mind over a kids book
I know their leader hates to read but holy shit

>>148988689
>Just adapt a different story instead of one that goes against your beliefs.

They adapt it BECAUSE it goes against their beliefs. That's the entire point. Where have you been for the last two decades?

>>148989058
Nice projection

>>148989058
>kids book

>>148988758
And you cam dislike the man all you want, it wont make you any less of a faggot.

>>148988873
The target effects the quality, like how the 1954 version targeted the Soviet Union and said
>don't worry, though, we'll "fix" it if it ever happens here!
In this case, the (alleged) target is modern America and its current (allegedly) elected leader, and if the last decade taught us anything, it's going to be pulled-punches, controlled-opposition black propaganda that's made to make the true opposition (the one you'll never find in DC or Hollywood) look ridiculous.

>>148989073
This is how you know these leftoids are just projecting all their insecurities and faults.

>>148989073
Nta, but I read it in 8th grade

>>148988299 (OP)
Because the Soviet Union hasn't existed for 35 years. Are you really still surprised by this Trump hate stuff?

>>148988299 (OP)
I don't care, OP. I am not watching it because I don't need to. Original book exists, both older film adaptations exist. I don't want this new one.

>>148989073

No.

>i-it's not criticizing communism, i-it's criticizing authoritarianism
The media literacy crowd will twist any message that might go against their narrative.

>>148989156
Last I checked Communism is still around.

>>148988799
Socialism doesn’t work without state power.

>>148988306
Anon, don't insult pigs that way.

>>148988567
>On a related note, comparing Trump to Stalin instead of Hitler is new.

They aren't going to. It'll be Hitler comparisons. Too many actual genuine commies and tankies to allow that to go through.

>>148989058
>hates to read
That's a funny way to spell 'doesn't know how to read'.

>>148988306
That's disrespect to the pig. A pig is significantly more hygienic and doesn't shit themselves.

>>148989449
But how much does its existence affect America?

>>148989156
Not particularily, I know Hollywood has had a bug up its ass about Trump going on a decade now. Not gonna stop me from calling out their bullshit.

>>148989269
1st. Highschool students aren't "kids" you dipshit and 2nd. Orwell didnt write this book with kids in particular in mind.

>>148989282
My point proven.
>>148989356
Precisely.

>>148989849
We were beefing with North Korea only a few years ago.

>>148989754
I know but it would break up the monotony of it all. I though commies disavowed Stalin cause the USSR "wasn't real socialism."

>>148989776
I believe you're thinking of Biden.
>>148989849
Quite a bit actually. Hollywood had connections with the soviets until the 90s and they still try and suck up to China.

>>148988299 (OP)
>is a not-so-subtle parody of Donald Trump

the authoritarianism I guess

I've often seen libs comparing him to random dictators, many of which are communist (Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot)

>>148988799
Then he was an idiot who unironically didn't knew better, like, no joke.

>>148990002
>>148990029
Are either of them actually even still real communists?

>>148988299 (OP)
To be fair, it's not like George Orwell liked capitalism. That's why at the end of the book, pigs and men look the same. Right-wingers only read the synopsis but never the actual book because reading is for faggots. The question is how they're going to turn a book about Stalinism into a critique of capitalism.

>>148990281
Was the Soviet Union? Is anything, after they do the obvious thing that a collectivized, centralized power structure does?

>>148990302
>Right-wingers only read the synopsis but never the actual book because [strawman]

>>148990308
But it's true. Reading is for faggots. America is an anti-intellectual empire. The first ever because every empire before promoted intellectualism and feel proud of having a high culture compared to the barbarians.

>>148988555
Byrneboot Lex was literally based on Donald Trump. That’s why he’s fatter guy who isn’t any kind of a scientific genius and instead he’s just rich asshole who has underlings doing all that work for him. It couldn’t be more on the nose, they even did a cover that’s riffing on Art of the Deal

>>148990329
I do recall cambodia being proud of killing intellectuals and china deporting them from the cities to work in farms because they were seen as le bourgeoisie

>>148990263
Fucker saw all the flaws of socialism yet refused to let it go.

>>148990329
Are you done with your childish tantrum yet?

>>148990302
Right winger here. Read the whole story and all the ending proves is that commies are the exact same kind of beoguise shits they claim to hate. Nice try faggot, maybe come with actual arguments instead of strawmen.

>>148990368
At the time they were third world shitholes at best. Look for a better whataboutism

>>148990329
Remember all the intellectuals that got sent to the gulag by Stalin and the Happy Bunch? Remember all those intellectuals that Castro had shot into shallow ditches? Pepridge Farm remembers.

>>148988299 (OP)

why?

well they did the same thing with V for Vendetta movie. After all, political commentary in their eyes must always be aimed at right-politics in these endeavors. It was twisted so much that even its own lefty original authors say it missed the point.

>>148990405
>BUT IT WASN'T REAL COMMUNISM!!!
Textbook

>>148990400
Read the damn post before posting a gotcha

>That's why at the end of the book, pigs and men look the same.

Right-wingers like to quote Orwell but they ignore Orwell was a socialist. It's just that leftists's favorite hobby is to antagonize other leftists

>>148990419
When I said that? Now you're strawmaning

>>148990421
Might wanna reread your comment before you post it cause all you're doing is further proving me right
>>148990429
again.

>>148990012
>I though commies disavowed Stalin cause the USSR "wasn't real socialism."

It's never real socialsim. That's part of the idea of a utopia. If it was actually perfect, it'd never fail, so the fact it fails means clearly you weren't doing it correctly.

By the same logic you could say no one has ever tried real fascism.

>>148990358
Trump wasn't really chunky in that era tho

>>148988299 (OP)
>Original novel is about the dangers of a shit head dictator
>Movie is about the danger of a shit head dictator
What's the problem?

>>148990529
Byrneboot Luthor wasn’t obese either but he was clearly made to be heftier than the previous lean and standard muscular bad guy super scientist of the pre-Crisis era

>>148990002
Now asking a commie if North Korea is a real example of communism and you'll get a nice wake to what they really think.

>>148989849
Considering our most immediate economic rival is an authoritarian communist nation, very much.

>>148990543
>>148988840

>>148990462
Yeah....That's obvious.

>>148990281
"Real" communists don't exist because communism as an economic/societal model doesn't work beyond the commune level if even that.

>>148988299 (OP)
Because no one but red hats like the taco.

>>148989156
>Because the Soviet Union hasn't existed for 35 years.
Are we still in that weird phase were we pretend modern day Russia isn't just the Soviet Union rebranded?

>>148988299 (OP)
>Liberal faggots the post
Go back to /b with this shit

>>148990956
Well considering how they are not a communist state, yes.

Trump is just using the exact same playbook that Hitler, Stalin and every other dictator ever used.

of course they gotta miss the point for petty personal grudges, of course.

>>148988306
