The problem is that you can read SJW into anything, absolutely ANYTHING. And that problem is compounded by countless people on these forums that do exactly that...and they're rarely called on for it.
Someone claims something is SJW propaganda and a dozen heads bob in agreement...because people like to believe that they get it too...that they're clever. Nothing gets past these guys, they don't fall in for all this SJW nonsense like everybody else, they understand, see.
Anyway, you don't seem to be giving any reasons for your own perspective other than just the argument itself...your post seems to read like one big, "Yuh huh, is too propaganda!", but what is it about the plot itself that makes you think so?
Because I would think that if it were propaganda, the poor family would've been portrayed in a wholly sympathetic light, have been made easy to root for. Instead they were portrayed as utterly ruthless...they didn't care who they hurt in order to get what they wanted. These were not earnest, honest people....quite the opposite, in fact. The movie is frigging called "Parasite", for criminy's sake.
Yet, the chorus begins again, just as it does with every other frigging movie, people hollering about SJW this and that, socialist propaganda etc and IMO you guys look ridiculous...just fricking SCRAMBLING to find something you can point at with, "Look what I found!" because damnit...you're not like those other sheep, you see through this stuff! And that's what its about, IMO. You. And personally, I'm tired of reading about you.
This whole "I see SJW" thing...there's not been anything special or unique about it for the longest time now...hell, its become the damn default perspective...virtually EVERYTHING is SJW, even if people have to bend over backwards in twisting the plot to fit that narrative. Its infected this forum for years now, has long become boring as hell and truth be told, its because its fucken boring.
You guys have the same tired, unimaginative shtick for every other movie...its nothing new, its certainly not entertaining to read about how clever you are...get a new groove, you know? Find something worthwhile to get worked up about, channel your energy/disdain into virtually ANYTHING else and maybe it'll have a chance of serving some constructive purpose. That's my take anyway.
Forums were a lot more fun back before everyone turned to proving how clever they were.

That doesn't make sense. The word "SJW" lives in the public consciousness because it's a well-deserved pejorative for the consistent and tiresome leftist narratives in the media like obligatory sexual deviants, minorities, women being infallible and only being kept down by the "patriarchy," men being stupid or inferior, pro-communism, pro-illegal-immigrant, anti-guns.

Yes, I am more clever than you, if you really think "SJW" is a term that's not based on anything real.
Anyway, you don't seem to be giving any reasons for your own perspective other than just the argument itself...your post seems to read like one big, "Yuh huh, is too propaganda!", but what is it about the plot itself that makes you think so?...
The rest is all just a retarded and offensive disregard of the explanations I've already made. If they are incomprehensible to you, then that's your problem. Anyone who thinks there is no agenda or narrative in the media is an idiot. That is not my opinion, that is a fact.

Yet in the end, its all about perspective...subjectivity. And your crew heavily leans into it...you guys read it into everything.
Like look...I just got done explaining that, pretty decently I thought...and you come back with, "If you don't think SJW agenda exists, etc"
Dude...that wasn't....what? How in the world did you get that out of my post? The answer is, of course, that you didn't. But its an argument for you...an easy one, and you leapt on it. It might not mean much to you, but to me it says that you're arguing for the sake of being right, and you'll use any means to that end. Which, coincidentally or not, ties in nicely with the personality I describe above.
Yes, of course I believe there's an agenda, but agendas are everywhere...everyone has one. Pointing out an agenda doesn't make you clever...being able to argue as to why its wrong-minded might, but it doesn't just stop at pointing the finger. And if that's all you're doing...you're just kind of wanking yourself off...like its just become confirmation bias.
