Disgusting Anti-Male Propaganda


Really sick of this notion that all men are rapists and that it's impossible for a woman to lie about being raped to hurt a mans reputation. Really hope this flops in theaters.

I'm gonna make a guess: the evil males are white.

I haven't seen the movie, not even the trailer, but I'd say 99.9% I'm right.

reply

You would be correct. It's implied the woman character was raped in college and it ruined her career and now she takes revenge on men who try and take advantage of her. All the men are white too.

reply

You would be wrong. I would know cause I actually saw it. The main character isn’t raped, the men aren’t all white. It’s not anti-male, it’s anti-rape. Given how much you post about movies with female protagonists, I’m assume you have never seen a woman naked in real life. Good luck, incel.

Simply watching the trailer and you see that not all the men are white. Most of them are, but then what would you expect in a country where blacks are only 13% of the population?

reply

Not even all the film’s antagonists are men. Women are complicit in the rape in the movie.

reply

Oh ffs there was one black guy as well so stick that up
Your arse, you must not have watched the movie if you missed that scene

reply

didn't "I spit on your grave" do this in like the 70's? Maybe its not all just about Woke2020, but just another revenge film. What's wrong with white bad men? I see them in tons of films.

reply

The difference is the climate has changed since I Spit On Your Grave has released. That movie didn't have an agenda and was a straight up revenge flick. The director and writers behind this film have made it really clear it has an agenda.

reply

Right now 90% of movies follow the pattern: good female/non-white male against evil white male.

The problem is not that you see that pattern in a movie, the problem it's how recurrent it has become. If you portray a Jew as evil in a movie, that's fine. If 90% of movies portray Jews as evil, well, then we have a problem. Now replace 'jew' with 'white male' and you have the current situation.

reply

^ This. You can make as many movies with evil white men being racist or whatever. Make one movie with a person of color or non-Christian as the villian it's problematic. Just look at all the people who complained about that movie Infidel that came out a few months ago.

reply

overall, I agree with you guys. so sick of woke everything and the "white man bad" premise

reply

Honestly I think the majority of the public is as well as much as Hollywood and the media wouldn't want you to believe that. Most woke movies are flopping at the box office and I expect this one to as well. Especially with the current state of the box office.

reply

Well, I’d really love to see the religious getting portrayed as the bastards most of them are instead of having Christians be the heroes when they treat the people who aren’t members of their cult like utter shit.

What are these anti-Christians films you are talking about so I can watch them?

reply

Yeah, I agree.

I really was looking forward to this movie, but the men & women in this movie are cartoonishly evil and this movie is so shallow in how it handles the subject of rape and how to solve the issue.

I'm surprised at how well regarded it is

reply

It's not anti-male at all. Nowhere in the film do they suggest that all men are rapists or that women can't lie.
