Hatebox Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 It's funny how socialism has become such a dirty word in the US. George Orwell, one of the most eloquent and vociferous critics of communist regimes, was a socialist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doublejack Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Weird drop for Obama.It's because the Republican National Convention started yesterday, and the Obama movie is a hatchet job on the president. Hence, all of the right wingers are eating it up. The movie will probably do good business through the weekend because of all the news stories about it and the convention.

doublejack Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Someone who has seen it can correct me, but I think it is primarily made to explain him, who he is, and what his motivations are. From what I understand it isn't as much of a right-wing propaganda piece some make it out to be. Some reviews I read said that they had a more positive view of Obama after seeing it. I think it depends on whether you agree with his vision or not.I haven't seen it, but the film is very clearly a right-wing propaganda piece. Dinesh D'Souza is a conservative scholar, and he asserts his opinions about Obama's motivations without providing factual backup. It is a hatchet job, and cannot be construed any other way.

Sure, some of his leanings may be present in the film, but that doesn't mean it is a "hatchet job." Go see the film before you condemn it any further.
