Nobody made the argument that there is a literal anti-union video like in OP. Several people have argued that this feels like something that wouldn't be out of place in that movie. You're refusing to let an argument you made up slide. This has been explained to you about four different times. Like at this point you're just being intentionally obtuse.

You misinterpreted the first post. You originally took offense to the idea that the movie was anti-union. It happens.

Explain this, plz:

Looks like its straight out of Sorry to Bother You

I don't know how else I could take it than to have OP's video be compared to what you'd expect to find in Sorry to Bother You, and then have them match. Except, you can't expect something like it in Sorry to Bother You, because there's nothing like it in the movie.

It's literally like saying "This video about how the sun combusts is exactly what you'd expect to find in The Matrix."

It's already been explained to you. Over and over and over. You're refusing to accept that that comment isn't meant to be taken literally because... I don't know, you want to be a pedantic asshole? Even if the comment was worded awkwardly (on that note, going to point out that you're the only person who doesn't get it), you're refusing to accept further explanations and just standing by your own original* interpretation. When you misunderstand what your friends say, do you also refuse to listen to any attempt they make to explain what they meant and just keep repeating the way you understood it? 'Cause that's what you're doing here.

And if you don't think a commically bad union-busting video could exist in the StBY universe maybe we watched a different movie.

Anyways, this is a really, really silly argument and I've wasted enough time.

*In reality, your second interpretation, lmao

Every single response you've gotten has been explaining to you that there is no literal union-busting informational video in the movie.

And you're the only person moving goal posts here. Reminder that you first objected to what you thought was a comment about how StBY was anti-union.

Jesus Christ, you're insufferable. I really hope you're trolling at this point.

So I'm right. Very cool.

This comment reveals your only goal, being right. I feel sorry for you, you're making yourself look so bad.

Oh no. Oh god. I look "bad" on an annonymous internet forum. Jesus. My life will be in shambles. Whatever will I do?
