Same. I could not give a gently caress about capes'n'tights wankfests and what they described about how Wonder Woman apparently interprets WWI has left me absolutely chilled.

Have they talked about the marvel movies yet?I feel like there's a lot potential for ideological dissection there. Especially when you consider the movie that kicked off the whole franchise (iron man 1) had some elements of interventionist propaganda.

They talked a bit on this one about them. Seemed like they thought those movies are just colorful pap, so nothing to talk about there.

yea which one did Will or Felix say he liked as a contrast to this? Captain America?

It makes sense, Marvel despite its flaws and its own problematic messages never really forgets it's comic book bullshit so yea you get like an hour of Captain America as a lovely USO dancing monkey before he heroes up and goes to help gently caress up nazis.

They also made Hydra the big bad in the first movie and they are like double Nazis.

I was relistening to the episode where they talk about Chris Kyle and ask why Americans fetishize snipers. My take on it is that snipers are the embodiment of the "surgical strike." America is the richest, we have the best technology, we can provide the best training, and we waste billions on the military, so why can't we just nip any problem in the bud with a surgical strike? The actual embodiment of this philosophy is the Predator drone, but you can't pin a medal on a drone.

Iron Man has a magic robot gun that can tell the difference between terrorists and civilians and only kill terrorists with perfect accuracy, so yeah. Tony Stark is a Predator drone with a human face.

and like a predator drone, he still causes massive collateral damage and casualties. but since he lacks the benefit of distance and training that a drone pilot has he instead feels guilt and seeks to absolve himself of it by placing the responsibility for his actions in the hands of a higher power

IME they enjoy labels like "radical centrist" to pretend that they actually believe in something.

The irony is that they really are quite radical; their obsession with political theatre over actual politics has them clinging to a nebulous center even when it's totally absurd.

It is a mystery how people think "from each according to their ability" is on the left.
