Pathetic fairy tale.


Pathetic. Make the criminals look like victims. Because we all know there are sooooo many US citizens just loading up and murdering illegal immigrants as they sneak across the border. Way to make a fairy tale about the reality of illegal border crossing.

Magical realism is one of the most celebrated things about Mexican literature. Good to see it in their movies too.

pathetic? it's american companies who hire em so u, average *beep* joes, can afford to have a life. so stfu, yankee & b happy u can still buy groceries..

Nice spelling. Fool.

I agree.

They are ILLEGAL immigrants. The word "illegal" means - contrary to the law. Therefore, those who commit acts contrary to the law....are criminals. Criminals are not victims.

This is yet another BS anti-white film depicting a reality that does not exist.

kitty.... so i guess if someone catches you with a parking violation or speeding they should just put a bullet in your dumb stinted head, too. since speeding is illegal you cannot possibly be a victim. right? it's frightening how one-dimensional your thinking and how primitive your 'logic' is.

You know, it's funny you mention logic, as you've just committed a fallacy of logic by building up a strawman and knocking it down.

Nowhere did I suggest all criminals in every situation should be shot. If you are crossing a border illegally, which is nowhere within the same logical planet as speeding, then you are knowingly violating the sovereignty of the nation you are invading in a blatant disregard for the law. You are not going 5 mph over the speed limit, you are entering and becoming a burden for everyone who pays taxes in the nation.

Since you're very concerned about taxes, I have to assume you're strongly against non-tax-paying leaches like Donald Trump. Glad to hear it.

Funny thing is... this is a horror movie. It's political depending on just how much you bring to it. You brought your own happy little racist stereotypes. Jeffrey Dean Morgan's character is a monster. He's as "symbolic" of white people as Jason or Michael Myers or Freddie Krueger. The illegals are just the dumb teenagers in the woods who picked the wrong cabin.

There's another white dude in the movie. An actual border patrol agent. Even HE knows that Morgan is an *beep* The movie isn't anti-white. It's anti-murderous-racist-moron. That would only bother a murderous racist moron.

Well, that depends on if he evaded taxes through legal loopholes or not - if he did so illegally, he would be in the same camp as Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Warren Buffet, and several other wealthy and prominent business owners. This doesn't mean such actions are acceptable - I just wanted to point out that your skewed-by-politics viewpoint extends beyond Trump, and is in fact quite common, thus rendering your faux outrage at Trump rather void.

If it were not meant to send a pro-illegal immigration message, and condemn anyone who disagrees (because as we all know, anyone who's anti-illegal immigration is Jeffrey Dean Morgan - a white, racist, murder - and the movie makes such an implication) then the racist, hateful individual would probably not be white - feeding into the grossly inaccurate, racist stereotype that only white people can be racist.

Your last sentence is just a petty jab at my character and not worth replying to.

Also amazing how your tangential reasoning came over. No idea if the guy [op] wants all the Mexicans shot but it is a crime. And maybe yes some speedsters should just be shot. Many of them might have guns anyway. Maybe even illegal guns.

reply

these illegals in the movie were victims though. :D

Plot hole - Aspect of a film that is misunderstood or missed while using your smart phone.

i have never been to the USA and dont ever wish to either. Where I live, luckily we have no White people. To be honest, I dont know how white people really are but whenever I go to any forum boards or movie boards such as this and see a racist topic being discussed, I get this weird feeling that ALL white people hate anyone who is not like them. As if, if it were upto them they would simply shoot, burn, gas any and every non-white person on the planet. Why is there this hate? I fail to understand. Are white people really such idiots or are they simply being projected as thus for some unknown reason?

reply

Not ALL white people, just those with a chip on their shoulder because it's not the 1950s anymore, back when they were in "power." I'm white and have to live in the same country as these morons; those who voted to put a "man" like Trump in power, and are more than likely pissed off because their penises are too small. That makes them angry too.

Are you for real shamis? You must be the most ignorant and racist person that ever lived then.

reply

and you are just one of those keyboard warriors who love judging people.

This is far too complex a topic to really discuss on a message board but the answer is no. Just like not everyone in your country are racist idiots or any other country for that matter. There are always going to be a lot of a@%holes in every population. Maybe in the U.S. we have a disproportionate amount of people who spew their sad hate online under the protection of anonymity because we're culturally a suppressed puritanical nation and maybe that has infected a lot of Americans. The problem with your statement is that I come to these boards too and I ALWAYS see people who are fighting against the racist bigots. There's no reason to assume that anyone on a forum that defends a non white group of people or tells a racist scum bag to go eat a bag of dicks isn't also white. Also, do you visit a lot of Canadian forums? How about Swedish? British? There are millions of white people in the world, seems silly to boil them down to some really vocally trashy people on the internet. A lot of good and decent people aren't remotely interested in going on the internet to discuss anything these days. Also, have you seen any U.S. news lately? Have you seen thousands of white people marching and protesting in the streets for equality and liberty for ALL people?

reply

As a non-white person, it has been wonderful to see so many good white Americans stand up against bigotry and racism lately. Very comforting. They've done a service to the world in the name of our country. Thank you.

We are obviously not, but we donĀ“t really appreciate this kind of comments either. You indeed fail to understand.
