Isn't this the opposite of what was asked for?
>>
>>85137497
The picture in the OP is called Communist core but includes anti-communist movies like One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich.
>>
>>85137309
>>85137392
>>85137397

They Live is anti-reagan economics of deregulating all giant businesses at the cost of the american people. Its not pro communism or even anti-capitalism. Carpenter himself said this and said he loves capitalism and that he himself is one, what he doesnt like is no restrictions on it. At the most, its anti republican economics. But the brilliance is that "they" are so vague that anyone from any standpoint can just project their own monolithic oppressive group on them and enjoy the movie.

uh, both films were deeply critical of communism, the killing fields especially because it was about the brutal and forgotten slaughter of the Cambodian people at the hands of the Communist regime lead by Pol Pot.

I listen to leftist podcasts as well; Chapo Trap House, Pod Save America, and the Jacobin podcast. Can't get enough of that stuff for some reason.
>>
>>85137881
Being rich isn't a left v right issue. The movie has a sociopath adopt a child and create a thriving economy for a small town through his own greed. If anything it is critical of CEOs but praising the affects of job creation and entrepreuership.
>>
>>85137914
I'm pretty sure that's the point of that image anon.

No, it was literally written by an anti-communist and is opposed to communism. Thus capitalism core would be anti-capitalist movies that depict capitalism accurately.

I think the point was the movies were about communism not pro communism

they tried the Republican way in Kansas, the true way where they got all that they wanted, and it ended up being a complete fucking failure, as predicted. and yet, Republicans still want to 'experiment'. meanwhile places like Commiefornia and Jew York are the most successful states in the country.

and as said before, all those cities you mentioned have deep issues that go beyond republican vs democrat

Is it worth checking out as an actual good film? It's peaked my interest.

>>85138657
Pretty much, I'm right-leaning myself and think it's a dumb idea but I do commend them for trying to do something to save themselves and their land instead of going full-refugee.

It's an actual good film too, good narration, actors are all great, and the photography is modest but pretty good.
>>
>>85138518
what fantasy book did you read this in

they built the wall since everyone was leaving because it was a commie shithole. if people could just leave anyway, why the fuck would you build a huge wall (over which wall, by the way, people tried climbing over to escape. why not just take the train then?) if everyone can just leave. that would be remarkably stupid, though I guess with commies nothing is off the table, right?

Nothing was incorporated into the state. In fact the state gave private companies lile Krupp lucrative contracts. Reread the definition of capitalism and then say how the Nazis do not fit that.
>>
>>85137149
That's not capitalist core though, Scorsese is just pointing out injustice in capitalism through exploitation. A better choice would be something that paints capitalism in a good light, if that's even possible.

You could argue that, but to me it's abundantly clear that he's painting it in a bad light. The whole film is just constant excess, they have fun with it because of the comedic tone but at the end of the day you laugh at his over-consumption the problems that come with it.

We don't shoot people trying to leave. The Grenzers were rewarded for successfully killing people fleeing the DDR.

Because maybe that would raise suspicion? Either way many people died trying to gtfo the DDR, that doesn't paint it in a very good light. Plus this
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Soviet_and_Eastern_Bloc_defectors
Also I would never want to live in a state where a good chunk of the population were informants for a secret police organization that rivaled the fucking Gestapo in cruelty.
>>
>>85140157
They were breaking the law. American cops and military kill people who break the law all the time. Waco, Ferguson, the list goes on.... Also that list doesn't count the people who were arrested in West Germany for wanting to go to East Germany especially since West Germans didn't get the freedom to cross over to the other side of Berlin like East Germans did.
>>
>>85139290
Simply put: they didn't respect private property rights. Companies like Krupp and others got to maintain their independence (relatively speaking) because they got in line. They persisted as, essentially, proxies of the state. Yes, they still bought and sold goods, and still used money, but it was under a level of government oversight that would be considered oppressive today. The state was quick to seize the assets of anyone who didn't cooperate.
>>
>>85139682

You're comparing two very different things. The people who died were committing domestic crimes in my country.
