I can't believe marvel's civil war seriously tried to tell it's audience that a team of (mostly) Americans with superpowers should be able to act like an international military police force with zero legal oversight because 'Gubmint Bad' and I guess 12 people having no legal oversight to their actions as an international force is fine?? That has got to be some of the most fucked up copaganda I've ever watched, and frankly I was shocked at how many people I spoke to fully bought into it too.

Like really, you actually think a small group of people almost entirely from one country should be able to act as an international military intervention team with zero legal obligations? If you think about that for more than 5 seconds it should be obvious as to why that's a bad idea and why America specifically would think that's a good idea.

#winters ramblings #this movies thesis is literally so fucked up??? it straight up says cops shouldnt have oversight #and yall believed it hook line and sinker because you Really Like the guy dressed as an American flag #the other Real Fucked Up thing goes to tony starks line about privatizing world peace #i CANNOT think of a more fucked up thibg then that W H Y #besus that the movie had to work SO FUCKING HARD to make the accords sound like a bad idea #and when you need to write the accords SO BAD that they all go to jail with no trials as if ANY world leader #let alone MOST OF THE WORLD'S COUNTRIES would ever agree to that then you KNOW youre playing stupid #if your shit has to be THAT bad to seem like oversight isnt good then youre purposefully manipulating shit #in a way thats not useful and says nothing politically except that youre uninterested in nuance or accountability #but marvel is copaganda so of course it has to say Cops Are The Best They Dont Need Limits- see look the government is WORSE #because the Whole World just wants to yeam up on america for no reason whatsoever they dont have a history of invading #literally ANYONE they hate to fuck their ekections and install rught wing terriristsas leaders bc better than communists!!#no no thats not why anyone with a brain would support the accords lets make it SO DELIBERATELY BAD no one would support it #but we wint even MENTION any of that in the movie no no we dont need to do that in the movie all about #this fucking piece if legislation why would we do good proper storytelling with ACTUAL reaaons for why the accords suck #reminds me of the joker movie with how much had to be pulled to make the avengers sypmathetic there #if you have to pull your narrative that hard then your story fucking sucks and so do your politics
