Mars attacks, interestingly, exemplifies the “I hate everyone equally” image that republicans once attempted to make their own. The martians don’t care if you’re black, white, Asian, rich, or poor. You’re all just flesh to render and discard. Nuanced choice, OP!

I can't take credit for the choice. Another Lemmy user made a comment that made me realize this scene is exactly what we are seeing in many American cities today.

Well if they're going to act like their AI videos are real, then this is valid, too.

Bad headline bc that's ALL MAGA does - they do very little that's constructive, they mostly just destroy.

The headline was inspired by Mars Attacks! (1996)
