I think people getting their politics from animated movies for children is so annoying. That being said I think Nimona was Unironically one of the most ideologically complex and serious treatments of modern antisemitism I’ve ever seen.

#I have a longer post #I’d be sooo curious to pick riz Ahmed’s brain on this lolllll #Things that make you remember the fact that he has a ppe degree from 0xf*rd #You’re historical you’re dead you’re still a round you’re the monster at the gate you’re not real #Could you just stop being different? #I think there’s very serious discussion post 9/11 prevent police/Islamophobia in this movie too #Like I’m not even joking. #I think what makes Nimona different is it doesn’t stop at hatred is bad!!!! #It unpacks the ways that that hatred is created in society and is useful to the preservation of social orders #Like. The kids aren’t *born* hating monsters #They play monster hunting games and eat cereal advertised via monster hunting #This supports the legitimizing conspiracy of gloreth’s state #So too is it not Nimona’s fault for not /just loving herself/ when the world hates her #Oppressed people can internalize their own oppression and it’s Not their fault #It’s just like. Actually interested in all this
