I’ve seen literally countless movies just this year that have CIA presented as ‘‘good’’, helping the protagonist, the protagonist or some of the main characters is’‘ex-CIA’’ or currently employed or has some connections to it or is at least just mentioned etc, you get the point.
How is it possible that terrorist organization is constantly ‘‘positive’’ in movies and casually presented like that, that is like showing Gestapo or ISIS as ‘‘good guys’’.
And it’s literally thousands of movies with essentially the same fucking plot over and over again . How does no one notice after all this time or bats an eye about terrorist organization being shown in any other way than, you know, terrorist filled with lowest and worst scums in history that should be destroyed?
I don’t even know how do people not notice, complain and put a stop to it.
Hollywood is in bed with CIA, FBI, Army etc. People don’t notice because they watch this since childhood with different intensity and it’s as normalised as breathing. And not only in USA, those movies are everywhere.
Culture war is incredibly important.
It’s baffling that literally no one does or says nothing about it, at least outside of USA. And is it possible that 100% of USA population is completely brain dead?
After 150 or so years of Hearst like media and 80 years of cold war? Quite possible.
Pretty sure it’s like this with police a lot too
Yup, copaganda is actually the worst, even in Poland there is non stop flow of US police shows and movies (in addition to Polish, German etc)
Watches state-spondored propaganda
Is surprised when the state is portrayed positively
I don’t watch it, TV is just turned on and except the ones I watch, I just look at it for some minutes when a random movie is playing and I see it.
Besides, I can’t know if some movie is propaganda/sponsored if I see it for the first time.
- Is it an American production?
- Does it look expensive enough to look like it is made in Hollywood?
If yes to both, then it is state-spondored propaganda.
I mean it can be seen only in credits if it doesn’t have recognizable actors and here they show movies from many countries, so it happens a lot that it’s some movie I never saw and it turns out to be propaganda/larp.
And it baffles me that literally every yankee action movie is the same, like don’t they have something else to film/invent new script?
Even the Washington post write about the US militaries involvement in top gun.
It is an open secret the US intelligence agencies use Hollywood for propaganda. https://www.washingtonpost.com/history/2022/05/27/top-gun-maverick-us-military/
And video games, Battlefield, Call of Duty, pick a camo-spattered hoo-ah feel good destroy-a-country narrative
Oh boy I remember how I got torn apart on reddit once for even suggesting that cod is influenced by the military-intelligence apparatus.
