Space Aliens Fight Off Evil Humans
In a conflict between the human race and creepy-looking space aliens, which side would liberals take? The aliens' of course, as confirmed by Hollywood's latest, a kiddy movie called Terra that tells the story of peace-loving creepazoids on some faraway planet having their pastoral bliss destroyed by nasty humans.
You don't have to be Caucasian, or a businessman, or Christian, or American to qualify as a bad guy to moonbats. Just being human is bad enough.
Next, Hollywood will explore the moral inferiority of vertebrates to invertebrates.

On a tip from V the K.

The depths of stupidity and vileness to which liberals will sink continue to shock and amaze me...though I don't know why. I guess my people-are-inherently-good credo doesn't apply to liberals.

"peace-loving creepazoids on some faraway planet" killed my mother!

You will bet that's one animated film I don't take the family to see. It's a great message to send: "Hey, kids, you're all inherently evil!"

If Ray "'Michael Moore is a horrible human being'" Bradbury was doing something like this, it would be a sci-fi literary classic that wouldn't preach anything.
Actually, this kind of reminds me of the Bradbury story where white people land on Mars, which has been colonized by black people, but instead of segregating and lynching the white men, the Martians welcome them forgivingly. Maybe the Nation of Islam can take a hint.
But I digress. Hollywood is not Bradbury. They'll twist this clever idea into unethical garbage that espouses "equality," meaning, we should be guilty and practice self-flagellation. No doubt the humans give smallpox to the aliens and then ruin the planet's environment.

From reading the linked article it sounds like the movie's main premise is standard Marxist-Leninism. We've ruined the earth through capitalist greed, the earth being the New Marxist-Leninist oppressed working class, and only through imperialism can we continue to live in the way we want to. It's standard New Marxism. The article even says:
"In the tradition of sci-fi invasion tales, Terra is loaded with allegories about imperialism. "It touches on a lot of current issues and shows a sense of responsibility for actions," Calder says."
As far as I can tell, the Left is the Left because they are Marxists, or Marxist-Leninists, or they believe in the underlying premises of Marxism. Usually the latter. How many people are really Marxists? Not many. This movie sounds like nothing more than a modified Marxist-Leninism, the idea that capitalism has to move on to new places to exploit and oppress or else it will collapse.

I write sci-fi, but I don't think I've ever filled it with allegories about imperialism. My last book was a sci-fi Israeli-Palestinian allegory.

So they remade 'Pocahontas'? Big deal.

>>>So they remade 'Pocahontas'? Big deal.
That's what I thought too. But then again, the Powatans were not peace loving hippies connected to the Earth as Hollywood insists on portraying American indians. Even the disney writers had "Pocohantas" showing the Powatan men coming back from a WAR with another tribe!
