Now that it's no longer current, and we've all had time to consider, was it really necessary for 300 to be so racist...

You can say "faggot" on 4channel, dork.

>NOOOO! A HISTORICAL WAR MOVIE CAN NEVER HAVE CREATIVE LICENSE UNLESS ITS BLACK WASHING OR MAKING WHITE PEOPLE LOOK BAD!! YOU CANT HAVE A ONE SIDE BE BADGUYS!

Based. What's the average lifespan of a fascist state I wonder?

Because fascism is masculinity, which when deployed in a constructive way brings out our highest virtues. The Soviet Union also embodied masculinity for a time, and excelled because of it, but that gradually fell by the way side and it atrophied and collapsed; liberalism has clearly led to the formation of overly feminine societies, which has resulted in widespread dissolution, directionlessness, and dissatisfaction. Hating masculinity is in vogue because liberalism is afraid of it after WW2; which is partly justified, but it's also partly a cynical ploy to prevent the formation of movements which might challenge liberal hegemony. They want hippies and stoners and grunge whining, not black panthers and nazis, not ORGANIZED MASCULINITY; if you notice, the most popular image of masculinity offered by our entertainment industry is rap culture, which fits perfectly because it's *disorganized* masculinity and therefore unthreatening to the state

how was it racist

any group of strong white guys beating brown people in something will be seen as "alt right"

thats a better explanation than any I'll be able to write

>Here are just a few of the categories that are not-so-vaguely conflated with the “bad” (i.e., Persian) side in the movie: black people. Brown people. Disfigured people. Gay men (not gay in the buff, homoerotic Spartan fashion, but in the effeminate Persian style). Lesbians. Disfigured lesbians. Ten-foot-tall giants with filed teeth and lobster claws. Elephants and rhinos (filthy creatures both). The Persian commander, the god-king Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro) is a towering, bald club fag with facial piercings, kohl-rimmed eyes, and a disturbing predilection for making people kneel before him.

All premodern states are fascist states. It is the default state of man. Simple as.

Maybe because that is reality, dumb fuck. Only whites (and to a degree east asians) are capable of that heroism and it was a long road to build western europe.

I don't think you know what fascism is...

The bad guys are brown and the good guys are white so it’s racist.

You know how sometimes the things you say say more about you than you probably want them to? This article reads like that. Like the author looks at these characters (even the animals), and sees filthy, disgusting things that are easy to hate. So everyone else must too.

That's the purpose of euphemisms, you know. You don't use a euphemism for something that doesn't disgust you. You use it for things that do. Shit becomes poop becomes discharge.
You may notice, it's always a certain demographic using euphemisms for... "people of colour"... the colour of excrement.

>300 is based on the greek myth not a darkhorse graphic novel of the same name so I will bitch about how they depicted stuff.
Why do pseuds do this?

Racism is logical and ethical

So they can impress people with their reddit trivia knowledge

Wow I can’t believe Persians really didn’t have an army of fucking monsters and Spartans were half naked. My mind is blown that this very obviously stylized depiction isn’t accurate

Except it ISN'T reality, it's a racist caricature. The intentionally darkened "villain" characters.

except when its directed at white people though right?

Yes, actually, when you combine it with intentionally racial insensitive and provocative imagery.

I hate the AV Club. But I also hate that there doesn't seem to be a better site for TV reviews. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Then it's a logical and ethical reason to kill whoever does it.

like what

Well it has to be pointed out because plebs watch this shit and will actually believe it. There's people right now who think the holocaust is real.

>You don't use a euphemism for something that doesn't disgust you
So you always call it a vagina, never a euphemism?

Sounds like you're gay.

>greek myth
The Greco-Persian War really happened

Then why shouldn't they try to kill you too?

he's right

snyder has connection to alt-right crowd...
