    what does that have to do with the discourse of this film? they're two different things

    I think he's more referring to the fact that people are unable to understand what is satirical, what isn't, and all the nuances in between. And that limitation gets obviously exposed when the criticisms are as dumb as most of these.

    okay, well he should say that and not act like reading the book gives you any more authority on the movie, it's not a good way to critique the critique

    I thought the discourse around this movie and Sinners was dumb, w/o having seen it. I think it was even dumber now having seen it.

    A lot of this s*** is just an insult is what im saying

    They swapped the races around from whatever the book was talking about and it just has this sloppy cut and paste over a different time period,

    This movie is about Andersons personal struggles with himself and unfortunately he chose to microaggress his way to the golden globes its cringe.

    If he had less horrible (or any) existent knowledge of revolutionary politics and why people fight for things this movie couldve been a lot better, because the resources were there. it looks good and it flows as a narrative. But the fact that the resources were there to make this sort of circle back around to prove the point

    any useful message is nonexistent and insulting to any groups of people vaguely gestured to in it

    I'm not sure how much of this is due to the book and how much of it is his fault. but anyway

    Stay liberal my friends!

    The pictures of a pregnant Teyana with the gun in her hand is hilarious irony when the director is married to a biracial woman lol. It can read as white male ego fantasy lol

    I think some people just don’t like the movie and how they are depicted and that’s okay
