i remember how my classmate one time recommended me to watch the menu (2022) and glass onion (2022) because those movies are cool and asked me if i heard of the "eat the rich" genre of film. and when i heard that — it being referred to as a mere *genre* — i think i understood the statement about how capitalism tries to absorb all critiques of itself into itself

just a cool neat alternative thing instead of an actual statement

like che guevara tees being sold for 20 bucks

i crung so hard ngl. like it's just...so utterly daft..."eating the rich" isn't a genre, it's a philosophy damn you. the one people died for. no hollywood movie can lay claim to that
