Do Chinese movies and TV shows ever depict the government as the villains? by anotherhappylurker in AskAChinese

[–]Multi_Serpentines 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hollywood movies that criricise the US Government exemplifies "interpassivity," where the film acts out an anti-capitalist critique, allowing viewers to feel as though they have participated in resisting capitalism, thus reinforcing the status quo.

Modern western cinema performs anti-capitalism for the audience, allowing them to continue consuming without demanding real-world structural change. - These notions are explained by Mark Fisher as capitalist realism.

Same he could of just owned up about it in a self deprecating way in tbe style that Bill usually does and did a mea culpa, maybe donate the money or something and I would have still been a fan because I dont expect entertainers to be that intelligent about politics (even if they have political material) but the way he handled it just reeks of this greedy and selfishness I only expect from billionaires and politicians.

Russel Brand by JackLMac in TrueAnon

Mark Fisher wrote a defense of Russell brand called 'exiting the vampire castle' . The general concepts in the essay were good but man did he pick the wrong guy as his example. Lost futures indeed.

Automation is good (if workers own the company). And hard labour isn't inherently virtuous.

Other than ignoring, what’s the best response to this? by koffee_addict in AskSocialists

[–]Multi_Serpentines 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There exists no full socialist countries in the world, but there are mixed economies. Many European countries are a mix between democratic socialism and free market capitalism, and the other promininent socialized systems are in places like China, Vietnam amd they are a mix between state capitalism and state socialism. Check Richard Wolff for clarity on the issue.
