It's not even always a reading comprehension failure, sometimes they realize the real intent and just kind of do what they want with the material regardless. Authorial intent doesn't mean dick much of the time. Hell, when John Carpenter straight up said They Live wasn't about The Jews on Twitter a few years ago, his replies immediately ended up full of people who just kind of said it was anyways
Tell me that motherfuckers do not actually think They Live is about an antisemitic conspiracy.
Clearly it is about schniff id-eology
I wouldn't go check the comment section on any clip from the movie on Youtube if I were you
Checking Youtube comments is a skill issue, I learned not to a decade ago
I used to have an addon that hid all the youtube comments.
Hate-reading them was my hobby and it wasnt a good one
I just kind of hate-read all the time, even imagining guys to get mad at or thinking about things I saw sometimes weeks or months ago when I can’t use the internet
My day job which gives me an actual pension is just a distraction from posting (or thinking about posting)
I salute our Brave Posters who stay in the posting trenches in my stead
They literally think that everything bad about capitalism is the Jewish conspiracy and capitalism would work just fine otherwise because they see what's wrong and instead of looking into it they say 'the jews' and work back from there.
Cause capitalism problem, scapegoat a minority for it. Truly a classic.
yeah like, I see this attitude a lot from lefties with a flair for the arts, and I think it's incredibly useless because we're often doing the same thing with a lot of art, and it rocks. Interpretation is a tool which we can also wield.
