Can't believe I get to see such a stupid and rhetorically malicious post in the wild. US liberals please stop

Anyway, for the record I do not sign off on this post and also everyone who agrees with this argument learn what the petit burgeoisie is

listen, if you believe Glass Onion's message of bashing super rich people is a form of "self"-critique, then you clearly don't understand who the 1% are.

When Rian Johnson calls out fake Elon Musk in his fun detective movie, this is not an attempt at "self-deprecating humor". Rian Johnson is "I own nice houses"-rich, he is not "I control nations, wars, economies, and the livelihoods of millions"-rich like Elon Musk is.

Rian Johnson is closer in his wealth to you than he is to Elon Musk, by far.

I am all for holding rich people accountable, I support calling out the Hollywood industry. But we *need* to learn to tell billionaires and millionaires apart, or our criticism of the political system will be fraught.
