    I think even if everything you said is true (i don’t agree that it is) your entire premise of judging the quality of art and film by how well it aligns with your ideological predisposition is fundamentally flawed and lib-brained. Based on the erroneous assumption that having art with good politics will fix anything in the real world, instead of just reflecting and crystallizing the world.

    The Chapos talk about this a lot, if directors and artists start listening to critique like this you get a lot of bad art with “good” messages

      And I think you're being dismissive of the environment's rights in a movie that's lauded as a big environmentalist champion. Everybody loses.👍😁

        “Rights”

        Yeah I don’t think we are on the same page at all. I just got done explaining how this movie uses dialectic materialism and not idealist concepts like rights or morality.

        This movie is a beautiful reflection of the themes and beliefs of the Japanese left post-USSR. I don’t know what more you want really, you want it to fit in a nice perfect box
