>I finally got around to seeing the Black Panther movie Tuesday. I’ve been black nearly seven decades. My blackness does not require affirmation from the Disney/Marvel Comics Universe, where Tony Stark is a greedy Pentagon contractor, where Captain America is a genetically modified organism, where the Wakandan king and the wannabe king both work with/for the CIA, and where Daredevil’s pals (season 1 episode 4) note that investigative reporting on “teachers union scandals” is as personally perilous as crossing the Mafia.
>For those of us aiming to build a better world, this movie is nothing short of enemy propaganda.
#GetMeTheHellOutaWakanda
>In the Black Panther movie, all the Wakandan players are royalty, their counselors, their advisors or their rivals. All the strikingly beautiful and capable Wakandan women take orders from men. The only unambiguous good guy is the Frodo looking CIA agent. The homicidal Killmonger character is calculated to sully the very notion of black rebellion against unjust authority, while Pan Africanism and humanism are defecated upon from multiple angles. Cinematic bar fights, car chases and battle scenes are a dime a dozen, and worst of all Wakanda isn’t even rendered in any visually inspiring way.
#TheThirstIsReal >The movie disrespects its audience and is a standing insult to science fiction and afro futurism. As Dr. Jared Ball points out, we can’t just go make and market another movie to compete with this one. Disney/Marvel Studios put tens of millions into the promotion of this thing alone, and for now millions of people are buying their message. That’s called cultural hegemony. >Those who would drink from this nasty water for “affirmation” and “black joy” must be deeply desperately thirsty. And evidently thirst confuses before it kills. >The only good thing I got from this movie was the motivation to look for and find some real, respectful, challenging and innovative science fiction and afro-futurism, preferably written by some black women to wash the rancid taste of Marvel’s superhero industrial complex from the inside of my head.

Thanks for pointing out you are subhuman trash. I am from one of the former communist shitholes. Just a few days ago some of my work collegues had a discussion about this phenomenon. Police would just stop you on the street ask for your work permit before even IDing you. If you could not provide them with what they asked they would take you to the station and make the necessary procedure to get you working some shit job, because everybody had to work. Also also school days would be 6 days of week. Pupils were taken to work the fields after hours during the crop seasons. But hey, I'm a reddit wagecuck right? Everything I say is false.

Your point being?
Leo Wright
Exactly how is that different from the US, you have to work a slave wage with no healthcare, and if you don't you get tossed into the street and starve since you have to work to get foodstamps, the cops are oppressive and kill people and fuck with people. College is mandatory for any decent job and it costs tens of thousands of dollars. Also try looking up the border patrol and see how oppressive they are to people. This is assuming any of the shit you said wasn't made up

I always wondered why black people see this movie as empowering when it's promoting xenophobia and segregation of the working class from upper society, although I guess African Americans don't really have the proper perspective and just see the AIIIIGGGHHHHT HOMIE WE GOS DA MONEY NAWW DASSSS RITE. Nice to see someone with some sense on the issue.

Daniel Ramirez
>Wakanda isn’t even rendered in any visually inspiring way
He means to say that it still looks like Africa, if Africa had money and scientific innovation. Wakanda still has that bantu tribal style. Which was a reasonable way for the cinematographer to design it.
I think it actually did a good job of giving black people some responsible/respectable heroes to look up to, which there's a huge shortage of in that race. They can pretty much look up to athletes or rappers, and that's about it. Most blacks that hit it big outside of sports or rap, are half-white uncle Toms which urban blacks don't relate to.
I was actually impressed with how much it *didn't* push a "blame whitey" agenda as the name Black Panther would imply. Though no doubt, militant blacks probably hated it for that reason.
Carter Rivera
Nowhere in your insipid rant did you make any mention as to how gender pronouns or advocating for the disarmament of the proletariat have even the slightest thing to do with communism. You type like an illiterate, I am seriously starting to wonder if you can read at all- let alone read Marx. Can you read? Can you read this?

>a culmination of black weeaboo intersts and afro-liberation activists; afro-futurism is possibly the least obnoxious means of putting black people into a medium.
You see, rather than giving the world a cynical western setting populated with mary sue black characters, afro-futurism simply sets the future world in an African or Afro-American aesthetic, usually with several main black characters. The style largely borrows from pulp genres, namely Spaghetti Westerns, Samurai flicks, and Blaxploitation films of the 70's.
See: Deltron 3030, Afro Samurai

Right now, hunger in the United States is far from eliminated. 12,3% of houses are food insecure and 4,9% have very low food security as of 2016 according to the USDA. Please state the historical moment in which hunger was eliminated in the US.

COINTELPRO, look it up. It was used on MLK and Malcolm X as well.
Black Panthers had a New York based chapter being fed misinformation to make him even more radical and intentionally causing internal conflict with in the group by sowing seeds of mistrust and doubt. Which lead to a split from the main Oakland chapter. And because in New York he was so bombastic, he would Garner attention which the CIA would put on blast for most of America to see and discredit the entire organization with.

Communists are peddling a dead ideology. The Russians now denounce Communism. Since Deng, the Chinese have somehow managed to denounce Communism while still slapping the label "Communist" on everything, which is kind of impressive. The last Commies on Earth are the North Korean faggots that everybody hates, the Cuban faggots that everyone ignores, and maybe the Veneuelans... Who are busy starving to death and butchering each other en masse right now. An Internet Communist is a crank on par with a flat earther

(Nice dubs)
The person who reviewed this is the same type of person who would've called Sidney Poiteir an "Uncle Tom" for winning an Oscar for Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, and, also probably never read the original Black Panther comics.
Probably also complains about white people "Appropriating our culture" when listening to rap and hip-hop and thought Jimi Hendrix was "Too White".
This movie gives young black people a positive role model to emulate, and he dares call it "Enemy propaganda"?
And they say that people of color can't be racist?
I shouldn't be surprised, though. Many so-called "Feminists" criticized Heavy Metal (The movie) not only for it's liberal display of female nudity and sexuality, they claimed that the character Taarnah was a portrayal of male chauvinistic stereotype of women since she didn't speak, citing "Literal DUMBNESS". I guess they never heard of STRONG AND SILENT.
I guess you can find a monster under any bed if you look hard enough.
