Après un vidéo terriblement lucide et touchant sur Robin Williams et un autre vidéo assez pitoyable à propos de Che Guevara, Stefan Molyneux se rachète un peu avec cet excellent nouveau vidéo qui est une critique du film MALEFICENT.
Voici quelques extraits:
"Ah! Maleficent is yet another power redemption movie about the glories of femininity and the evils of masculinity."
"Two orphaned children: a girl and a boy. The girl (...) sits in a tree, laughing at the sunshine, playing with toys that she magically floats in the air, healing trees and in generally spitzing sentimental vertues (...) The boy is a dirty thief. Do you get the picture? If not, this Nazi level of anti-male propaganda will be repeated within the film for approximately infinity."
"Maleficent is the protector of fairy land where there are no rulers because everyone just trusts each other. This is the madness of girly world! You know? Like in high school where all the girls loved and supported and truisted each other, right? King Henry is the king of man world and thus is greedy, dirty, bearded, swarthy, greasy and violent. He brings his knights to attack girly world. Why? Because he has a beard and thus is evil."
"One thing you will notice throughout the movie, and this is becoming a ridiculiously prevalent cliché, is that the more male characteristics a person has, the more evil he is."
"This level of transparently manipulative propaganda is directly from the racist and antisemitic cliché handbook. Imagine making a movie where everyone who is good was really, really white. The ambivalent characters were mulatto and the more evil the character, the darker his skin."
"Men are born bad, but women are made bad by men. (...) Women tenderly open their hearts to men who then sadistically cut their hearts out leaving them bitter, angry shells of their former glorious selves!"
"As we saw in the other Disney FROZEN, women always possess great talent and abilities without any prior training or experience whatsoever. (...) She is woman and therefore, she is magnificent, powerful and competent without ever having to undergo the inconvenience of rigorous training."
"Stephen saves Maleficent's life by taking her wings. She plots revenge, destroys lives, murders her former lover, drives an innocent child into exile for 16 years and is considered justified in her actions. Malficent saves Diavel's life by taking HIS wings, then snaps at him to stop complaining and turns him into a slave for the rest of his life! Notice any slight moral double standards here?"
"Women would go insane at such a humiliating depiction. But no on even notices if the victim is a man."
"Men are disposable slaves. Women are dark justified goddesses or retaliotary magic. Mmm... I can almost taste the patriarchy! Can't you?"
"On the baby Aurora's christening day, pixies arrive to give their blessings. The first blesses her with beauty, the second with happiness. Nothing about intelligence or wit or creativity or self-knowledge or wisdom. She should be pretty and then giggly."
"After being begged, Maleficent makes a modification to the curse which is that Aurora can be awakened by true love's kiss. Just as in Frozen, it turns out that this kiss, this love, must come from a woman, not a man. At one level, this appeals to the vanity of girls and women who love to imagine that, although they want to become mothers, they can do without men! At a deeper level, this is the beginning of mankind's awakening to the basic reality that it is a lack of love from women that is killing the world. Women's well-documented verbal, physical and emotional abuses within the families, statistically greater than men's, is beginning to be understood."
"People are so terrified of women that they can only assign them a tiny shred of moral responsibility for healing the world after spending 90 minutes obsessively praising them. (...) This requirement for endless flattery before giving a healily veiled metaphorical message is characteristic of those living under a dictatorship. A chick-tatorship, perhaps."
"Again we see that pure female influences in the life of a child (...) always produce wonderful offspring. While whatever a man touches turns to ash and hate and fire and death!"
"Feminism, by making women eternal victims, has stripped them of their ability to apologize and thus to take moral responsibility, remain sensitive to empathy and to grow as human beings. Believing in the patriarchy means never having to say you're sorry."
"This level of contempt for masculinity has to be noticed before it can be stopped."
"It is not healthy to tell women that men are bad. It is not healthy to tell daughters that their fathers are bad. It is not healthy to tell wives that husbands are bad. Because the absence of fathers is killing the world. Just look up these statistics on the children of single mothers:
