What do real life "bleeding heart" liberals feel about action movies?


As well as any stories where bad guys often villains get defeated etc etc etc or have vengeance exacted on them?

If in REAL LIFE they are, at times notoriously known, for having way too much sympathy for criminal wrongdoers even if they know they are guilty, what and how do they feel in fiction, do they take villain's side, do they not cheer when in Die Hard or Lethal Weapon or any James Bond films hero wins?

And on the real life side, how do they live with themselves, and if others disagree, how do they explain themselves?

And should we really speak out against them and shame them or are they entitled to their opinions? Thanks.

P.S. HOW COME, even with their known existence, people who often despise the perpetrators don't even think twice if they should? Do some people just not CARE about the opinions of others? And are those liberals THEMSELVES so CERTAIN or do they, and other people, often change their minds? Cheers.

To flip the question, OP, do you have a problem with 'grimdark' speculative fiction TV shows and films where there is no obvious 'good guy' or you even follow an anti-hero or anti-villain protagonist?

OK Admin or Admins, whoever, can you please move this thread to the Political forum? Thank you. I want to do it myself but if I were, all replies will get deleted, many thanks.

Nope, but what I generally have in me is a rather black and white world view and having been raised on a diet of action movies way more than real life books, it sort of coloured my world perception with wishful thinking of a kind where good fights evil and wins and everyone lives happily ever after.

And even today I sort of feel this way.

I find those sorts of settings less interesting than darker settings.

Interesting OR not, I sort of CAN'T HELP but feel this way, even if I don't want to. :)

Doesent everybody like those films?
What on earth made you think the liberals would have a different opinion to 'publicans about them?
