I can see your point and agree that such movies have an impact on American consent. But we might be using a different definition of propaganda. Do they make pro-military movies because they want to gain American consent or because pro-military movies make money? A movie where Captain America beats the Nazis or Ironman defeats muslim terrorists is going to appeal to the masses more than a movie that doesn't utilize a beloved American narrative.

Look at how Winter Soldier took on the military machine when the Iraq War became generally unpopular, or how Black Panther addressed American racism once that became the wave, and I'd say Disney is more trying to follow trends than create them.
They literally get funding from the Military industrial complex breh, it’s well documented. They get access to real life US military equipment. They are basically an arm of the defense department. Again, any leftist source would tell you that it’s also documented in mainstream media. Black panther rehashed an old story breh respectfully and had some killer acting in it that pushed it over the top rather than the pro black messaging. That’s just my opinion though

You are African different outlook than a Black American
I disagree with your assessment on what is the biggest threat to Black Americans but that’s is a totally different conversation. I respect your opinion and if you are indeed a Black American I take into account your opinion even deeper; however I still disagree given maybe my different perspective on the issue.

@Pressure of course xenophobia is not a western liberal value so I know you don’t mean to inadvertently call me an immigrant in a derogatory sense without actually knowing where I was born. I was born in Canada so that would make me a natural born citizen with East African parents like Obama. Unless of course you want to see my birth certificate. Trump wanted to see Obama’s and you’re interested in mine. What a world.

And Breaking Bad literally got support from the DEA including use of DEA equipment. Does that mean it's pro-DEA propaganda, or were they just chasing the story?

Do you think Winter Soldier was a four-dimensional chess by the military or was Marvel/Disney bucking it's sponsor in that one?

Yeah breh breaking bad had plenty of pro DEA propaganda I think anyone can see that lol. I enjoyed the show too for what it was; im not a cynical guy personally. It was still piff. An agency like the DEA isn’t giving out money for their health brother that’s a little naive. As for winter soldier I’ve never seen that.

In my opinion (just my humble opinion) the threat changes on a case by case basis. In 1924 the biggest threat was violent white supremacy and that is borne out by the events of that year. However in 2022 to me looking at the events of the last couple years the biggest threat seems to be the rapid collapse of Black economic power. Black people are right now poorer than they have been in decades. This leads to a whole host of other problems which are destroying the community like drug use, gang violence, health issues, and urban decay. I am aware that it is happening in part due to a system of white supremacy but the corporations accelerating this are not targeting blacks because they hate them, they target them because they’re easy prey. Just look at the polluting oil companies destroying the gulf coast. Again just my opinion. If you disagree because you are a black American and have a different perspective I respect that 100 percent.

White supremacy and the "Black Economic Collapse" are directly tied to each other though :skip:




You make it sound like they are separate :dwillhuh:



White supremacy against Black American has always had an economic component, as well as a environmental and health component.

Disney ain’t going to Colorado. Who gonna visit Disneyland Land covered snow, blizzards n ice storms. Disney would be better off in Texas, Louisiana, or Georgia.

They can build Cinderella's snow castle. :ufdup:

And those three states are red, and there's nothing guaranteeing that they wouldn't pull the same shyt as Desantis is, right now. Also, I'm sure Colorado would give them governing rights, unlike those three states.
