My prediction is that "Rebel Moon" will have enough Snyder treat hogs needing to make excuses for it that there will be future "this is leftist, actually, because the Big Bad if you squint at it can actually look like nazis I guess" or even "the Synderesque Cornfield of Burgerland Sentimentality can look kind of like a commune if you squint and hold your breath long enough" or maybe just boil down to "let people enjoy things" thought terminating cliches, all the while the movie will push cartoonishly blatant up-yours-woke-moralists propaganda against straw communists. No one is immune to propaganda, least of all the "propaganda has no effect on me" believers, so I predict that'll be a struggle session.

I expect I will be told to touch grass a lot by that treat's future defenders if it has even a moderate amount of profitability, which would consequently make local hogs want to make excuses for it instead of admitting it's hog-feeding chud propaganda and just eating it anyway with acceptance, which I would respect somewhat more. feast

I'm truly impressed at how incomprehensible this post is to me. "Treat", "struggle", "hog" and "chud" all presumably mean something particular to you.

No insult intended - in-group slang is fun sometimes. It's just kinda cool to be presented with it - reminds me of the Weird Old Internet.

Wanna know the fun part? Even we're a little lost in this guy's posts sometimes. Not as much as a BMF post (or whatever alt account they're on now), but still.

treats = food/entertainment, derogatory

struggle = big argument on the site, generally called "struggle session"

hogs = the unwashed braying (usually) CHUD masses

CHUD = Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dweller, fascists/other right wingers

Wait I thought we were hogs feral-hog

I think hog just means anyone who consumes slop, which is to say, a consumer.
