Entire film reeks of phony white saviorism
And makes it near impossible for me and every other poc with dignity to watch.

shareNo, it reeks of white guilt if anything.
It's clearly meant to convey the whites migrating from europe and taking America from the natives.
Cameron loves to shove those liberal ideals down your throat.

except it's not what happened.
i thought "we are all the same" and "there is one human race"? if that's the case, what is the problem with open borders, and Europeans coming to the North American continent? (There was NO AMERICA until White men created this utopia that everybody wants to live in).
whites and natives fought - natives did terrible things to whites, and vice versa. natives fought natives for land - they did terrible things to each other.
back then, "might was right," and whites were the mightiest - simple as that.
the narrative that Whites have anything to be ashamed of, or sorry for, or to "pay back" is ridiculous.
Yes! Thank you for clarifying that to these IGNORANT LIBERALS! If the "native Indians" were victorious over the "evil white man" ~ America would be a THIRD WORLD HELL HOLE, like most of Africa! And these whiny, phony liberals would be living in the closest thing to America...... Maybe western Europe? Oh wait, HITLER would've conquered America because the "native Americans" would be fighting back w/bows + arrows! LIBERALISM IS A MENTAL DISORDER!
shareYou think so? Can you tell me how many arrows were in George Custer when he was killed?
The Injuns had rifles at the Little Big Horn, stupid.
Custer’s body was found with a bullethole in his left temple and one below his heart.
Oh, and an arrow shoved up his penis post-mortem.
Oh...I’m sorry...did some Hollywood movie stupidly convince you he died in a shower of arrows?
🙄
NO ... my reply was to "Americans would be fighting back w/bows + arrows".
It was condescending, stupid.
" America would be a THIRD WORLD HELL HOLE, like most of Africa!"
no , if the indians were victorious they'd still be living sustainably in harmony with the land, not filling it with plastic and diesel fumes.
Actually, it combines White Guilt and White Saviorism in a uniquely annoying way! The White Savior is the one to vanquish the forces of imperialism, even though he's the dumbest character in the film!
Which really does make it one of those movies that doesn't improve on repeat viewings.
Because it takes an experienced, somewhat educated, civilized white man to help the native people... who - like any indigenous, underdeveloped culture have no idea how to deal with more advanced tech??
Get off your soapbox while I play you a tune on the tiniest violin.
