i love watching youtube analyses of movies and shows and i love when the person explaining something is totally wrong about the thing theyre talking about

#myposts #right now this is about someone talking about midnight mass with the pre-existing assumption that its basically only a show about critiquin #christianity and not about a really interesting and sincere discussion of faith and personal accountability within faith #which is WAY more interesting than that person claiming that the scene of the people walking to easter mass with candles is supposed to be #reminiscent of the charlottesville unite the right rally which makes literally no sense as a comparison whatsoever #and like. saying stuff like that monsignor pruitt is completely self-serving and only bad-intentioned and manipulative #and missing so many sides to his character and his actual internal struggle alltogether because the person just assumes he has to be a liar #like pruitt is SUCH a good character BECAUSE he deep down means well #like he GENUINELY thinks that he is doing the will of god and he struggles to contextualize what he percieves as gods will #with what he is suddenly forced to do (eating humans) and like. he doesnt realize that he should be questioning if hes really ACTING for go #and thats the main THING you know. people who are held in a frame of belief might try to rationalize EVERYTHING through that frame #even if it starts to oppose their actual beliefs. like. its a prettttyyy significant thing for pruitt that he starts questioning why #god suddenly 'allows' him to kill people and instead of reflecting on it he holds a SERMON saying that GOD CHANGED HIS MIND ABOUT MURDER #like I LOVE pruitt because he's that realistic and like all this person can see is a very shallow critique of christianity #which this show isnt honestly ALL that interested in (at least not from the side this person is talking about it lmao)#and jessie gender (who doesnt know about it but whom i have beef with) commented 'excellent analysis' under the video #dare i say. it was not. it was really mid anaysis and like half the plot just FLEW over this person's head apparently #like. theyre not wrong but they are kinda analyzing a side-plot (the social ostracization of people non-christian from the community over #the run of the show) like it's the main plot and only plot going on lmao #but this post is also about every man who ever opened his mouth to speak about shiv roy
