As a conspiratorial-minded chap, is this an opportunistic ploy, or was this movie specifically designed to function as a Trojan Horse to accelerate a fascist agenda of mass censorship?

Or just empty politics as usual? Something about this feels... different...

    Hey, if you want to glom on to the fascist censorship agenda because you can't watch clothed teens dance without thinking about sex, that's your bidding. I guess me and the people I know who've watched it and didn't think it was that big a deal are all pedos. The Handmaid's Tale awaits.

      Imagine being so devoid of material analysis that you think that any censorship is fascism. You have zero right to call yourself a Marxist. Shame on you.

        I think the inability to look at art in the abstract is perhaps a failure of being too married to material analysis.

        We won't agree on this subject, but I wish you well nonetheless.

          Hiding behind abstractionism to justify actual, real sexualization of children by intentionally putting them in inappropriate positions and filming them in suggestive camera angles is the height of liberal degeneracy. You should be ashamed of yourself. Fucking disgusting.

            It's quite striking that I can watch those scenes and see nothing but the awkwardness, pity, and anxiety that comes with coming of age, and all you can take away is some righteous crusade to compensate for the funny feeling you probably had in your loins.

              'It's quite striking how I'm completely oblivious to the intentional choreography of the movie, the morality of putting children in that position, and the very real underground sex trade that's going on. I'm completely unable to connect various elephants in the room, so I just consume vapid liberal propaganda normalizing sexualization of children uncritically - so therefore you're the pedophile'

              That's how you sound.

                Your... liberal use of the word "liberal" really exposes your chud tendencies, Chuck Tingle.

                  Do you even know what 'liberal' means, you circus clown? It doesn't mean that I'm by default a conservative.

                  What the fuck are you even doing on here? You're clearly not a socialist, let alone an ML.
