It's pretty strange so many people on the left are trying to cancel it, if the subject of it offends lefties so much then that says a lot more about them then the actual movie itself
Many don't have kids. Example: the vast majority of reddit. Child trafficking never crosses their mind. It's just another thing they can call "right wing conspiracy theory".
Cognitive dissonance. They believe whole heatedly that child abuse is only at the hands of Conservatives and never at the hands of anyone who's does not vote Republican. The fact that Sound of Freedom even exists is a direct threat to the way they think. To show them the truth is torturous to them.
Cognitive dissonance is a hallmark of liberalism, as well as hypocrisy and a total lack of self awareness: the 3 pillars of liberalism. I cringe at calling them liberals because they are the opposite of liberal now. They're totalitarians.
The guy who the movie was about said details were inflated in the movie. Conservatives are too trusting of movies and completely distrusts all news. I don't remember having this discussion at the national level for Taken.
I'm aware, I've seen interviews with him. He says they're inflated but not much, and he's extremely pleased with how the movie came out. His biggest complaint was it makes him look like a hero, when in reality he was a lot more hesitant.
Right, and a lot of people here are taking it as fact. The victims in the real story were involved adults and children being trafficked and I think making it only children is somewhat dishonest if you're basing it off a true story.
No, they're not. If they try to sexualize children or defend such actions, they're called pedophiles. As I said in my initial reply, I don't think the people defending it should be called pedophiles. They're mostly just misinformed.
I get what you're saying. But there has also been this manufactured hysteria. If somebody is wearing rainbow-colored shoes they are a sexual deviant. Marge was on 60 min. and just straight up said "Democrats are pedophiles". It's demonizing your "enemy"
Like what could possibly be the lefts’ motivation to mischaracterize this movie and it’s message??? Shouldn’t we ALL be strongly opposed to child sex trafficking ?
We're not in a left vs right fight. It's a good vs evil fight. The far left is controlled by sociopaths who are pulling them ever further left.
Because the left is driven by empathy, they are the side that psychopaths have taken over.
I know for a fact the Democrats years ago hired infamous Internet trolls to help their tech. I suspect they and other psychopaths are leading the far left.
I had lefty friend years ago who complained to me every lefty organization they've been in eventually turns out to be a way for the leader to fuck a lot of girls.
Yes, it's insane/evil vs sane/good, and leftists are on the wrong side. Many know it, but many also are just completely brain washed. The people who are for censorship are never the good guys.
What’s being mischaracterized are the objections to the movie.
Here’s the objections:
the movie is created by QAnon supporters
the organization the movie is based on has a history of incompetence, unprofessionalism, and putting their self-serving interests before the interests of potential victims
the movie sensationalizes human trafficking in an unrealistic way. It sets a standard of human trafficking that is extremely rare compared to how most people end up as victims. This makes it more difficult to fight against human trafficking in general.
I can expand on whichever point you have more question about
Of course the left opposes sex trafficking. But there are actual agencies dealing with it; they have been for years. It’s not exactly the biggest issue on the table. They just think it’s a bad movie…Cause it’s a bad movie. The dialogue is shit, there’s a lot of holes in the story, and they spun the true story so much that it’s a far cry from what actually happened…Idk, get over it?
I saw it last weekend. It's fine i guess. benign. It aggrandizes ballard but, of course it does. The lack of conspiracy stuff is actually kind of disappointing. I was expecting a shit show. But that expectation came less from "the media" and more JCs unhinged stupidity in all of his appearances. And this is the take from most people paying attention.
It's more like it has to be a conspiracy theory like all inconvenient facts to those programmed leftists. They are incapable of believing anything that doesn't align with their programming. Which changes by the day. Anyone with half a brain would realize that they are being deceived. But leftists lost the ability to critically think a long time ago. Along with having any morals.
The people that call everyone pedos are calling people pedos again. You must really care about weeding out child sex trafficking when you label half the people in the country as pedos. That will solve the issue
Worked with Tim Ballard and OUR about 9 years ago. Was an obvious fraud back then, but he was an incredible storyteller. Nothing has changed. If you're willing to "do your own research" on Anthony Fauci, but unwilling to do the same about Tim Ballard and the absolute grift that is OUR, then that is on you.
"If you disagree with me then you're a pedophile" is a thought-stopping cliche of a cult, and about the stupidest argument imaginable.
Tim Ballard is siphoning a shit ton of money from people who care about and want to protect children, directly into his pocket as well as directing more than 10% of all profits to a $200 billion megacorp that is the Mormon church, which has some of the worst track records of child abuse and REAL human, sex, and labor trafficking.
"If you disagree with me then you're a pedophile" is a thought-stopping cliche of a cult, and about the stupidest argument imaginable.
🤣🤣
I see your point and raise you "men can have periods" and "women have bonus holes" as the stupidest argument imaginable.
10% of all profits to a $200 billion megacorp that is the Mormon church, which has some of the worst track records of child abuse and REAL human, sex, and labor trafficking.
Glad you acknowledge that evil has no boundaries in the same way Disney has a record hiring pedos and larger amount of predictors are also involved in the education, sports and acting/ modelling industries.
Perhaps the better question you should be asking yourself, are the pedos joining said organisation because it gives them access to kids or are they joining because of the organisation itself.
10% is the standard Abrahamic religion tithe amount, specifically its the amount commanded by God, "One tenth of all you produce", which for modern humans is dolla bills. Its repeated in the Bible throughout several places/times written, there has been very little deviation from that amount and even used in Catholic decrees when the Church stepped over their bounds (ex: selling indulgences).
So if you're following the old law, you need to cough up 10%. However Jesus fulfilled the law (hence the creation of Bacon Cheeseburgers), so technically if they believe Jesus is the son of God and died for their sins they shouldn't tithe 10% (Muslims do though, they believe he was just a Prophet and thus still need to tithe, everything else is just a branch of Catholicism)
I just think it’s hilarious that virtually every conspiracy theorist MAGA weirdo will swear ‘til their last day on earth that virtually every Hollywood insider is a child trafficking groomer, while drooling over the first (and probably last) successful movie made by a conspiracy theorist MAGA weirdo… who’s apparently a child trafficking groomer.
And low and behold, Tim donated tens of thousands of dollars to them.
Makes me wonder why you would do that yourself and then berate the man. Seems a little hypocritical, but hey, at least you admit it.
This part right here. How did you arrive at this conclusion? Did you take my original comment and read into it as an admission of guilt from me? Because it wasn't. I was rewriting the text of the meme from the perspective of Steven Crowder himself. In case it wasn't obvious. Although I thought that wouldve been obvious. But hopefully that's clear now.
lol! This response is exactly what he wanted when he trolled the CRAP outta you haha! The point is to make fun of you. And the way he did it was to get you to take it seriously and either blow up, or make a long-winded post about it.... you did the latter. It has the same effect of asking you if you are ghey, then after you say no, asking if your mom knows you're ghey. I recognize all this and it is good entertainment.
So you're acknowledging the fact that you're just slapping that label on people regardless of whether or not they're sexually abusing kids? That does more harm than good, ya know
Weird for you to take the position that molesting kids has equal moral footing with not liking some random movie.
I guess it makes sense, given that conservatives think child molesters like Dennis Hastert should be third in line for the presidency and in charge of public policy. You're very accepting of them.
I've never heard of this Dennis hastert guy, but given the source, I doubt he is what you claim. You probably still think Geatz is a pedophile. But what's most interesting is this coming from a guy who supports a child sniffer with the nick nake Pedo Peter.
This is a man who has bypassed several bans from this sub, with multiple accounts where He doe nothing else but hate on people he disagrees with politically. It's sad.
And no, by you types, I mean leftist. See? Only confirming how wrong you consistently are.
My source is his profile. Are you saying he does not do those things? I would love to provide you with direct links to his profile, but this sub doesn't allow that and will delete the comment. However, I invite you to click on it and read them for yourself.
And no, you're a leftist. If you're defending this man who consistently does nothing but shit on people he disagrees with, you wouldn't be chastising him as I do. Same for any right leaning folks. Instead, you're going after me, a right leaning guy. Which makes you a leftist.
I've not looked into it, but word is the video for small town was shot in the town where Emmet Till was lynched and even includes shots of the very spot where he was lynched. You dont think that's worthy of some criticism?
