These people really do believe the curtains are blue, huh?
I once had a prolonged and fruitless argument in a video game guild chat with someone that insisted the 1980s GI JOE cartoon was perfect because it "had no politics and no political agenda."
He even topped it off after a while with "did anyone ever tell you... the curtains are FUCKING BLUE?"
At first, I thought it was meant to poke fun at people who over analyze or really reach when discussing literature, but I don't think it means that.
It still means that, though the extension is generally mocking the over-reaction against the idea of over-analysis by people that dogmatically claim that no message should be allowed to be derived from their treats.
So it's used to describe people who over analyze but also people who don't read into media at all (example: the curtains are just blue, and that has no meaning)?
it might help to think if it like "the curtains are just blue!" being anti-over analysis vs "tHe CuRtAiNs ArE jUSt BlUe!!!" being anti-anti- over analysis
Advertising, or "capitalist propaganda" as the kids call it, is famously non-political and incites the audience to no action or thought that could possibly influence the structures of power we've surrounded ourselves with.

I have no idea what it means to say the curtains are blue anymore.

Can someone explain?

He was the dark knight because his suit was fucking dark!
Or also, if the author didn't want to draw attention to the curtains, they wouldn't have mentioned them!

Hah okay.
It's interesting how language develops. A word can mean something but also the exact opposite of that thing.

Absolutely wild
