Well let's see.
SPC Jimmy Nakayama was killed by friendly napalm during the battle. And plenty of black, white, brown and yellow soldiers were killed in that battle. If'n you didn't know our military no longer has segregated units or anything |

I thought it was good, didn't care for the jump backs to the wives in the middle of intense combat scenes, kind of takes you out of the moment. But I never got liberalism out of it, also highly recommend the book and it's coverage of the other LZ.

I've watched that movie a hundred times and never ONCE drawn the conclusions you drew. The black guy that gets shot is then rescued by a white guy before they both get killed together...and the Asian guy who gets napalmed gets single-handedly carried to the MEDEVAC by *gasp* a white guy...the movie is about heroism, brotherhood regardless of color, and the unprecedented horrors of war. OP needs to drink less toilet duck.

OP needs to drink less toilet duck.You are right and wrong, it is a movie about heroism, which is the most important thing, but if you can't see the hidden race and "woke"(for the boomas and gen x in the back) stuff that laid the groundwork for where we are at.... So boiled down, you consider "white guy rescues minority" to be not pre 2010s liberalism? Because it seems like that was all over the place before they buried St. George |

The only thing that even vaguely smelled of cultural Marxist influence was the laundromat segregation dialog between dependents. Even that reflects the reality of the time.
I understand segregation and it’s effects were historical fact, but those specific lines of script seemed forced. Important or impactful events happened to Soldiers of various colors because, guess what, the Army was racially integrated at the time. OP is looking for rage bait where none exists. |
