Saw it last night. Tons of parallels to what is going on today with the US and the rest of the planet.

Healthcare is at the core of it, with a select few having all the perks and the rest having next to nothing. Similar to the US vs many many other countries.

Robic police stop and harass people, who doesnt see that coming soon?

It very hard to not see us ending up like this movie.

And yes, the people fighting for good had guns. Some very bad ass guns. Without them they would have been powerless against the machine.

A bad ass movie that I'm sure everyone here would enjoy given the content.

Refrain from enjoyment, understand it. It is an accurate projection, but the sky is too blue. It's producer is not working to help us to understand how to be free. They are showing us what will happen of we do not learn how to control ourselves.

District 9 was the same producer and they are profiting on our demise, before it happens.

We have to understand that we need to wage an unconditional struggle for freedom and win because our ancestors were dying to protect it. We must know they did it for a reason and every tool of law they made to protect it we must understand and use.

We should be making our own movies about how to dominate over corporations. Or at least be talking about them.. Currently there is a major infiltration of this forum by people working for corporations. Ever time we see unaccountability we are seeing a robot of armadyne.

So, good liberal, Matt Damon, went to the darkside and made a pro-NRA movie? Hard to believe!

It's probably an entertaining movie. But not any indication of our future. I think the Grapes of Wrath would be more fitting as to what our future might be.
