  • I think in general any time someone makes a movie criticising some idea by satirizing what that idea looks like when taken seriously, some percentage of people will miss that it’s satire and just think it’s seriously advocating that idea. For example starship troopers is a fantastic movie and a great critique of militarism using satire. But a decent chunk of people watch it and think it is unironically glorifying militarism.
