Reply to comment by [deleted] in The line to see Avatar: The Way of Water at Jordan's IMAX in Natick by Tara_is_a_Potato

It gets better ...‘Avatar 2’ called out for ‘cultural appropriation’ and ‘white savior complex’

I was debating on whether to go and see it or not (coincidentally, I did see the first one at Jordans), but this 'woke' shit is getting out of hand and only sways me even more to go and see it.

At least this time around the Majestic 7 in Watertown is a 15 minute walk, 5 minute drive from me.

Everyone please meet someone who has never read a decent critique of the first avatar and thinks anyone who points out that the story is not a whole lot more than a retelling of every other story about the white guy who goes native and teaches the natives how to be better natives than they could have been without the white guy Superman is „woke“.

Guess what genius, this is a discussion about narratives that has been going on a lot longer than whenever some wingnut snowflake came up with the term „woke“ to describe any discussion they have trouble following
