Anyone gonna see Detriot?

It's pretty fucking brutal, but a pretty good movie

I wish I had friends to see movies with

Holla Forums will naturally hate it without even seeing it because of how plagued they are with right-wing idpol.

As an open-minded cinephile, I would love to see this movie for myself and see how it fares for me personally. I would especially love to see what my comrades here on Holla Forums think of it, both on a personal and a leftist basis. It would make for very intriguing and fruitful discussion, I would hope.

I wish I could be there for you user :(

Movies aren't dialectical.

Personally, it's impossible to "enjoy" this movie because of how absolutely fucked it is. Like it's the most bleak and soul crushing thing to watch.

From a leftist perspective, it's actually pretty good. It's obviously a liberal take on the riots, but the movie never explicitly condemns the rioters for their pent up rage and anger, and explicitly condemns the actions of the police and national guard. It's really just an incredibly visceral movie. I didn't "enjoy" it but it was excellent.

I understand, there's plenty of well-made, quality films that aren't necessarily "enjoyable", but are still great. 12 Years a Slave is a perfect example. It's some pretty haunting shit, but it has a valuable message and is very well-crafted as a film. Thanks for the heads-up, user.

Interestingly enough the hashtag on twitter is full of "hehe detriot has been run by democrats for years and NOW look at it" type conservatives and also Steve Crowder (who literally visited detriot like it was a zoo) using the hashtag but not saying anything about the movie, and what's so unfortunate about that is perhaps seeing this film and then subsequent research into the events depicted might actually get their brains going for the first time in their lives.

God I keep spelling Detroit wrong, stupid me


A great example, also a great film (coulda done without the whole "not all slavemasters" with his first owner honestly but whadya gonna do). Definitely check it out buddy.

lol don't get your hopes up

And you expect this to be good?

It was good, but yeah not a huge fan of that film

...

What also sucks for the 67 riots is that a dem was mayor then, so they'll throw up their hands and say it was the "libtards" fault instead of years of just pure shit

...

can we organize meetups or soemthing for all these friendless leftypolyps. its sad that some of you guys dont have any support,.,,,

I think we should also try to help each other build up resilience against the alienation of non leftists. It wasn't until I could not get rattled by the reactionary rhetoric of libs and conservatives that I was able to make real friends.

Yes, we should all meet up IRL. Everyone make sure to bring your own drugs so we can have a pot-luck.

yeah a lot of people get cowed pretty easy and its also sad

This, tbh.

The anonymous posting aspect and constant in-fighting between various leftist factions (i.e. tankies vs anarkiddies, etc) makes Holla Forums kinda intimidating as a social platform, and it can be hard to actually make friends here. I made one friend from a Holla Forums Discord group, quite a chill guy. He's a Marxist-Leninist-Maoist, and has some very interesting things to say about Mao that's gotten me personally intrigued. But I never found him on Holla Forums itself, sad to say.

We need to make Holla Forums more accessible to people looking for friends, somehow. It's also a shining opportunity to redefine chan culture from the Neanderthalic nature of how 4Chan originally conceived it. Who's with me?

seriously?

Fuck off and die fag, post your suicide note on Reddit.

The YouTube comment section for the trailer in a nutshell. Jesus Christ, Holla Forumsflakes are touchy! It's like you can't make films bout events before 1968 if they feature black people.

LOL I remember watching that video. He even titled it "Steven Crowder Goes Ghetto" or some shit. Misleading as Hell. Sounds like a gay interracial gang bang porno.

bigelow is a shameless propagandist and jingoist

I used to live in Detroit.

It is funny how not a single one of you leftist absolutely insane fucks would ever go to live there and try to actively improve it, or live among the people you think are somehow just 'misunderstood' or unfortunate.

Put your money where your mouth is, go live among your fellow man.
Share with them, everything that you have and everything that you work for.
That's communism, and not a single one of you is prepared to do any of that.

Shit bait

...

kill yourself retard

Of course, conservatards deep-throating ideology don't think that democraps are capitalist

I saw it this afternoon. It just made me hate cops even more.

I'm with you user

I try to not call anyone a fool, explicitly or implicitly on this board. That generally servers to only reenforce a persecution complex in their head anyway.
Instead I try to convincingly assert they are wrong. Which ironically seems to hurt people's feelings way more than name calling ever did.
Also I try no to make fun of any aspect of their lifestyle or appearance, since this is often a manifestation of capitalist exploitation and or neglect, and was often outside of their control.

This is one of the most woke things I've ever heard in my entire life.

Comrades, we must adopt the immortal science of /kind/ if we are to destroy capitalism!!
