This movie is going to help rile up and further split a fragile country. I believe it will inspire bad ideas in a already emotionally unstable population.

You clearly haven't seen any A24 films before. Way to act like a MAGAt. πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™‚οΈ

This is incredibly tasteless and I'm really disappointed in A24.

Why is it tasteless? Is it the depiction of war and unrest or is it the style? Honest question, I'm not in the loop about the movie.

Because a civil war is on the verge of actually happening, if we're not in a cold civil war already

Thanks.

You think the political situation is so unstable in the US? What facts do you base that on?

Has it to do with the election campaign that has just begun?

[–] sodalite@slrpnk.net 5 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

It has to do with the rise in attacks on people of color and LGBTQ people, and the rise in attempts at legislation to turn back the clock on previously won civil liberties. Extreme factionalism and just general overall increase in violence across the nation, particularly in red states. They're just getting more entrenched in their ways, with some factions actually looking to incite a civil war. They want it.

Hopefully this is only marketing and the actual movie is good

Please, tell me more about how you're a huge fan of the studio's groundbreaking and assumption destroying catalog so far, but continue to do so in the driest deadpan sarcasm possible. No, really. 😢
