This is propaganda you're buying into.

Because while he pretends that he's saying something critical of America, the entire point leads up to that he actually thinks it is the greatest country. And since this is completely scripted, it's clear propaganda.

@MartinTheFirst its called a movie... not propaganda...

@Milkshake Propaganda is usually incorporated into media and amusement. That's part of it.

@MartinTheFirst fine... then everything is propaganda

@Milkshake Everything that is made that tries to skew your viewpoint of politics is, indeed.

@MartinTheFirst so whats wrong with it ?

@Milkshake That's a question of taste, personally I find it taste..less. It's meant to make Americans [i]feel[/i] something, completely fabricated and specific to their nation. It gives me an yuckie uckie feeling.

How [i]negative[/i] that could turn out to be, is very hard to tell.
Just imagine if Russia had things like this about their own country in all of their movies, you can then imagine the feeling I feel when I see you watching this self-stroking shiz.

@MartinTheFirst i dont know any russian movies... you know why ? cause they suck.

but propaganda is everywhere else too... just take a look at france and russia with their military parades that even seem to impress the orange man in a way that he wants one. china is indoctrinating their people all the time.

@Milkshake lol they do suck, have you seen the funny compilations of them on youtube?

Absolutely. Propaganda is by no means uncommon, but it always leaves a bit of a bad aftertaste.
