ik that art is subjective and there is not one "true" meaning that one is meant to derive from a work but honestly, some people's readings of media ARE wrong and dumb and bad, lol
#ive seen ppl say that brokeback mountain was basically like emphasizing why people should be in the closet and stuff and im just like.
#how could the point fly over your dumb little head so high smhh
#they say that like jack and ennis end up miserable anyways so it shows that theres no hope for queer ppl or whatever but like?
#i thought it was obvious that the whole point of the piece is that its a commentary on society and an argument as to why we need to fight
#against homophobia with all that we got bc the story draws you into these two guys lives and you see just how miserable they ar

#its a story thats supposed to be a mirror held up to audiences to be like 'if ur homophobic and toxically masculine and u express the same
#ideals that are clearly torturing these guys then you are part of the problem and are the reason why not only jack and ennis' lives suck
#but also why their families get dragged down into the muck too'
#and like i guess it isnt common knowledge anymore how much of a groundbreaking movie this was but it came out at a time where it was
#socially acceptable to be openly homophobic in most places and bc im insane ive read so many stories of ppl whos minds were changed
#bc they saw the movie and were like damn. maybe i should stop being a dickhead to people who just wanna live their lives
#so when i see reviews that are like "
#brokeback mountains message is to stay in the closet im just like. shut the fuck upppppppppp and learn how to be media literate ugh. lmao
#still brokeback posting
