Over the years, Miyazaki’s political stance about America’s involvement in global conflicts as well as the country’s contribution towards the globalisation of American culture has been unwavering. “Anti-jeans, Anti-bourbon, Anti-burgers, Anti-fried chicken, Anti-cola, Anti-American coffee, Anti-New York, Anti-West Coast,” Miyazaki once said while describing his beliefs.
According to excerpts from multiple interviews, Miyazaki’s dislike for all things American also extends to the realm of cinema.
“Americans shoot things and they blow up and the like, so as you’d expect, they make movies like that,” Miyazaki stated. “If someone is the enemy, it’s okay to kill endless numbers of them. Lord of the Rings is like that. If it’s the enemy, there’s killing without separation between civilians and soldiers. That falls within collateral damage.”
Miyazaki compared the visual politics of large-scale Hollywood productions such as the Lord of the Rings to the country’s international policies. Attacking America’s actions in Afghanistan, Miyazaki claimed that such projects are a dangerous addition to public discourse because they diminish the value of human life by weaponising the audience through cinematic violence.
I mean, those are the culturally hegemonic areas. Even the areas outside those in the US that do have their values exported across the globe, like Christian nationalism, do so through the media and economic centres based in those places: radio, internet/social media, finance capital, etc.
He also hates Tokyo, so maybe he sees them as like America's Tokyo(s) too in regards to social power/influence.
Edit: Although I guess he shoulda' add Washington D.C./Georgia though if my analysis is correct.
