What makes you think that right wingers love that movie?
Ethan Fisher
I’ve seen a lot of right-wing talking points come up about the morals the movie espouses.
Grayson Turner
Orange men good
Jaxson Gonzalez
Got some examples?

But there is no orange here ... Also have you heard Tucker? Biden is becoming orange as well. Does that mean that right wingers love Biden now?
(I mean american right wingers, I am well aware that elsewhere Biden is not considered left)

Stuff like the the naughty children getting what they deserved and the punishments for their misdeeds being justified on a basis purely that they brought it on themselves
Jack Phillips
I've seen left wing people do the same, like calling the overeating kid capitalism and the bossy girl bourgeois.
I think people attribute what they want to examples that might help them convey ideas.
Jaxson Barnes
I suppose that makes sense, either way it’s pretty clear that regardless of how you see it the punishments were overkill.
Hunter Gray
if you don't like it then you're a sub human
Isaiah Watson
Sure, but then again, said movie claims that whipped cream comes from actually shipping cows and the kids survive shit that should kill them. It's rather cartoony.
Daniel Sanchez
whipping* not shipping
Gabriel Williams
>and the kids survive shit that should kill them
We don’t actually see them survive in the original movie…
Adam Richardson
Roald Dahl himself hated this movie
John Powell
>Dahl hates a movie
No shit, there’s a reason he wrote Mike Teavee after all
Nathan Wright
>We don’t actually see them survive in the original movie…
Huh, based.
Tyler Cruz
How is that based?
John Nelson
...they do?
Bentley Hill
Not that I condone taking actions like that, but a movie that is willing to be over the top like that without apologizing is kinda based.
Like they are showing off something bad without making preemptive statements about it being them pointing at bad stuff so people learn, instead of condoning it.
Isaac Anderson
I guess that’s true. Still, even as a kid ai never really understood what Mike Teavee did wrong tbh.
Xavier Stewart
I think Roald Dahl disliked the parenting style of letting your kids ferment in front of a television all of the time. Mike didn't do anything wrong, aside from being fucked over by overly permissive parents.
Samuel Thomas
That’s fair, the fate was thematic even if it was overkill, I always remembered watching Mike get shrunk back when I was a boy his age and sure enough I always thought that it looked fun and wanted to try it myself. Of course I was never as the obsessed as Mike was, I just saw a shrink-ray teleporter and wanted to use it.

They played stupid games and won stupid prizes
