    Life isn’t like a movie. A movie has the liberty of making things black and white or easily understood. Real life is full of shades of gray and history, which shapes beliefs and opinions.

      Right? I mean I get there are problems in the world, but this post is literally saying “you’re stupid for not joining a resistance (apparently any resistance) because you enjoy movies where the protagonist resists something.”

      What an insanely shallow take.

        Does Twitter really allow for depth?

        Incorrect. This post is literally saying exactly what it’s saying and nothing more. That’s what “literally” means.

        What it’s implying is that the reader, who supposedly rooted for oppressed proletarian resistance groups fighting against evil empires in various famous movies, contradictorily and blindly roots for evil empires oppressing proletarian groups in real life.
