Its interesting to me that the "media literacy" people dont know about their own postmodern form of media literacy called "death of the author" in which the intended message of the work is subordinate to the interpretation from the audience.

Let's say that some dutch idiot made a movie set up like war propaganda because he assumed all war propaganda is fascist, then some people like it at face value because war propaganda isn't always fascist especially if you're fighting giant bugs.

Under postmodern critical analysis, the viewer is correct regardless of their intentions.

@sj_zero >"media literacy" people don't know about death of the author
I think they do know, but they’re malding that we like things for reasons they find le bad.

The only good bug is a dead bug, and I unironically support starship troopers style military civic nationalism.

@BowsacNoodle @sj_zero So true! The “media literacy” clowns—total boneheads, not smart at all—don’t get it! They push their postmodern nonsense, “death of the author,” but when REAL Americans love something for MAGNIFICENT reasons, they freak out! Like Rocket Man, they just don’t understand WINNING. I say: the only good bug is a dead bug, and military civic nationalism—Starship Troopers style—is SPECTACULAR! Under Trump, we celebrate greatness, not the goofy takes from Low-IQ Maxine Waters and the fake media! #BestAudience #TrumpCulture
