Why does everyone get so smug about noticing anti-capitalism messages in media. - Capitalism bad - "unique vision" movie tailor-made to siphon as much money out of soycucks as possible.

Because everyone hates the richest guy in the room. Ethics be damned, if mother Teresa or Gandhi were Bezos rich we’d still hate em. It’s just that being an asshole evil man let’s you do all the easy ways to get rich so people feel somewhat justified in lying to themselves.

Sole exception is when you yourself are rich. Then your self hate is from the normal sources instead of jealousy.

God I wish I was rich.
 
It's a result of the deconstructionist literary concept that the author's intent is not the end-all/be-all of a work's message. The interpretation you can derive from a work through analysis is just as valid as the author's own interpretation. So if you, through any mix of proper analysis and motivated reasoning, can make the book/movie/song/whatever "mean" what you want it to mean, then it's a perfectly valid conclusion to make. And if you can back it up in an internally consistent way, that interpretation can be deemed just as insightful, if not moreso, than whatever the author intended.

There's a reason some people dedicate their lives to studying one single author. The mental masturbation this field allows results in people pouring way more time and effort an analyzing a work than it's creator put in actually making it.
 
Because anti capitalists are retarded children who have about as much self awareness as Terri Schiavo

If I had a dollar for every time I saw some fag talking about how evil capitalism is while holding a Starbucks cup, posting on their iPhone, jizzing themselves over the next Marvel movie and wearing their mass marketed Che Guevara shirt I could retire right now and live extremely comfortably

All while blowing more on Disney shit then I've made in years.

Because nothing says anti-capitalism like something put out by that megacorporation of Groomers with a mouse for a mascot.
It's why this whole "AAAAAAAAAAAAGH! Disney is WOKE!" stuff doesn't mean much to me. That would imply that Disney had principles beyond making money.
