When SJWs and liberal 'news' (see: blogs) sources complain about a film, it usually means it's good. I wasn't going to see suicide squad because I thought the trailers looked like shit, but I think I might now.

Wow you guys are so smart! XD XD

Contrarianism is a natural cultural paradigm that shifts back and forth, every single industrialized society that has been studied has experienced this. It's not wrong nor is it naive to have Contrarian views, they naturally take a foothold in society when said society swings too far one way and gets fucked up.

Who brought up contrarianism? It wasn't me, it was the two anons who replied to me. If you are one of those two anons, how can you first claim I am only trying to be Contrarian, and then now claim that it is not Contrarian at all to see the movie for previously mentioned reasons?

It's kinda dumb though because it makes predicting how you will react to certain events stupidly simple for anyone who wants to manipulate you. I'd say public opinion within societies "naturally" swing too far one way or the other because this weakness is exploitable in the majority of people.

You're telling me you base your views on how likely you are to be manipulated? The question is rhetorical by the way, you don't. We don't consciously choose our views and beliefs in case you're thinking that.

I haven't read Man Without Qualities, but LA Review of Books recently had an article likening Trump to a character from that text. It was a good article.

Read Pynchon, especially Inherent Vice and Vineland. In that order. It's got a really cool 70s-80s feel. I've got an uncle with a major hard-on for /k/ shit and old issues of Soldier of Fortune and they're the only real literature he has ever read and enjoyed, so as a Trump frump you'll probably enjoy it too.

Honestly this mindset pisses me off

No, not everyone who dislikes Donald Trump dislikes Suicide Squad. Not everyone who likes Donald Trump likes Chinese Dota. This us vs them mentality is just disgusting, a Trump supporter and a nonTrump supporter have the same chance of disliking Suicide Squad.

Probably any YA novel since both the genre and Trump appeal to retards.

If sjw and liberals complain, it means the movie needs more diversity and faggotry. Its not a gauge of how good the cinematography, actor play or the story is.
