You need to stop basing your political know-how on Mad Max movies.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That's not an argument that's a poorly disguised insult to wit, get fucked bud make an argument or stay quiet.

Also mad max had communism and thus society, shitty society but still.

[–] masquenox@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

a poorly disguised insult

No, Clyde... I made no attempt to disguise the insult.

Also mad max had communism

You need another insult?

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You didn't say it straight out, you disguised it like a southern woman saying bless your heart. Similarly. ... Bless your heart.

You haven't actually made an argument, your simply being a loudouth douche, lots of bluster but zero substance.

[–] masquenox@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You think this...

Also mad max had communism

...justifies some kind of argument?

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

You certainly seemed to think so when you brought up mad max in the first fuckin place. It's your argument dumb dumb, if it's idiotic it's because you're an idiot.

[–] masquenox@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I guess that just went over your head entirely?

You know what? That's fine. I'm not going to be spending too much energy on this.

"Mad Max had communism"

From the same people who brought you "everything I don't like is communism"

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

You're moron. There were a series of communes, it's like 85% of the fucking movie ya dummy.

Ed: similarly I'm a socialist so your point makes even less sense cast in that light.

[–] Prunebutt@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I gwess you missed the part of Fury Road where a political elite class had complete control over the means of existence for everyone else and literally owned breeding slaves.

Great communism, bro! /s

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ahh, so now it's mad max: fury road, even your cinematic choice is changing at this point. Yes the masked tubby fuck was an oligarch or arguably a fascist, however the female led group they're looking for the entire movie (you know the main plot) was a commune.

I do enjoy the shit talking from someone who's objectively wrong, wildly overconfident and hedging while trying to play flippant, it's adorable angsty teen shit.

You do realize that I'm someone else, right?

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Doesn't say all change what I've said, and yes I know there are "three" people in talking to that all have roughly the same pattern of response so far down in a comment section that no one is adding third party votes for. I'm gunna bet all three are one in the same.

[–] Prunebutt@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It might not change what you said, but I never claimed anything about Mad Max. Just thought it's funny to claim that "Mad Max is communist".

Ok, if you think that you're talking to one person with two alt accounts for some reason, I guess you're free to be wrong, I guess. I don't care to (and logically can't) prove that's not the case to your paranoid ass.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep, never said anything at all huh?

Sure, sure bud. I'm not refusing to talk to any of you so I dunno, make a point and stop crying.

[–] Prunebutt@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep, never said anything at all huh?

I meant before that.

  1. Someone else: Stop thinking mad max is real
  2. You: Mad Max is literally communism
  3. Me (thinking that it's funny to claim that Mad Max is communism, when all four movies have quite different societal structures depicted): Lol, Fury Road much?
  4. You: You're changing movies! >:(
[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There's that hedging again.

I never said it was real, you're gaslighting because you don't have an actual argument.

No, I said mad max had communism, it does.

Again I didn't say it was communism if nothing else but because it's an incredibly stupid way to phrase it.

You literally changed the movie bud, that's a fact.

[–] Prunebutt@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Were is the communism in Mad Max?

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

In the original in the communes the fuel boys raid.

In fury road it's the matriarchal commune furiosa is seeking the whole movie, it's quite literally the main plot.

[–] Prunebutt@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's a lot of societal structure you gathered from the backstage of the first movie.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

You'd need the same to say it doesn't exist in the movie bud. Your point is shit.

[–] Prunebutt@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Or you could just say that it is never stated in the movie and therefore not known? Which would be the honest option?

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

If I slap you in the face but don't tell you I slapped you in the face, have I then slapped your face?

Extrapolation is a thing and even if we hedge as much as you'd like there's more evidence to suggest it does exist in the movies than it doesn't.

Troll on, you're at least entertaining in your inanity.

To be fair, all entertainment media carries a political subtext, and Mad Max Fury Road had an interesting one - which is why it's one of the few AAA movies made in the last decade that's actually worth watching all the way to the end - but that's not the kind of thing you can discuss with the "if-you-want-anarchy-go-to-Sudan" crowd.
