            If you dont care about being connected to authoritarian murderers then I think you missed the point of the principles said groups represent.

              No, I don’t care about this movie or the image taken from it. You know that what happens in such movies isn’t real, and that the persons depicted in them are not real people, right?

                Most stories aren’t real doesn’t mean you shut your eyes to the meaning. If you’re struggling with the point of the story just ask.

                  No, my point is that the movie this image was taken from is irrelevant to the the meaning on the meme. Memes are made with all sorts of source materials that have nothing to do with the meaning of the meme, often even directly contradicting them.

                  It is possible that the person that made this meme had the specific setting in the movie in mind, but looking at the comments here, they failed to bring that across in the actual meme, which makes it irrelevant to the meme itself.

                  Edit: and a bit of ambiguity is often what makes memes work in the first place.

                    100% disagree. A meme is a form of social commentary that MOST people have experienced. (Meme = social gene) Theres a whole thesis written on the phenomenon. Moreover everyone in the comments knows what Jesse plemons does in the scene, thus most people know what to expect in this exact context. Secondly, the man is holding a fire arm intimidating the journalist, that’s never a good look for anyone. Lastly, your allowed to believe what you want, you’re just wrong.
