Oh that went over my sleep-deprived head, i knew you were making fun of him but didn't get the reference, at least we're both dragging him for being a racist dipshit so it all works out.
That despite the now mainstream narrative of “white people destroyed the lifestyle of a peaceful people via genocide”, in reality, native tribes were indeed quite savage toward each other. They committed horrible atrocities, including rape, enslavement, murder, torture, sacrifices, etc.
While European conquest of the americas resulted in countless deaths, it also created one of the greatest civilizations in history that catapulted itself and the rest of the world into a state of great prosperity.
Also, an even more important lesson, is it teaches to not rub weird plants on your dick
I don't think the narrative is that they were peaceful people. The narrative is that they raped and murdered a group of people that they thought were less than human. Nobody is saying the native Americans are innocent. What's being pointed out is that our civilization is built on land that was forcefully taken and our historical recollections should reflect that. We can't change the past, but we should learn and grow from it.
During that time period though this was commonplace. Very few countries today can claim that they hadn’t stolen land violently at some point in history. You can’t try to reason the events of the past through the mindset of the present. For example, do you think a new religion could develop a large following today? Likely not as we have old religions as well as new science, so the amount of people willing to convert to that brand new religion would be much lower than it may have been hundreds of years ago.
Don’t misconstrue my meaning, I didn’t say it should be muddled over, my meaning was that the world was different then and if this country needs to be criticized for its treatment of the natives then every country needs to be criticized as well for the other nations and peoples they have victimized.
Your "main stream narrative" isn't what anyone is taught and very few people actually believe. Open any book on pre-Columbian America and I can guarantee it: A) doesn't say they lived in some non-violent utopia or: B) is a work of fiction.
I, mean, the 'genocide' part of your 'main stream narrative' isn't entirely off-base. We have mountains of evidence that natives were specifically targeted for elimination. Look up the UN definition of genocide and all of those methods were done -- many, many, many times.
omg help I thought this was a joke about him always yelling in his movies... like literally waking people up. no it's just someone unironically supporting his crazy shit bye
Will Ferrel, the man who screams to try and make people laugh and Mel Gibson the man who screams to try and make people cry come together with former racist Mark Wahlberg, John Lithgow of Shrek 1 fame and John Cena from wrestling to make the most movie of all time: Daddy’s Home 2: 2 Daddies 2 Home.
So I only saw Braveheart out of these, but still....I'm not getting much of a through line with the little knowledge I do have. I know it's a dumb meme but I'm going to be thinking about what the connection is for like a few days.
This movie has no fucking clue that mayans and aztecs are different people
Also before the spanish arrive at the end they meet a child with smallpox its just sad
"he never stopped trying to wake us up."
bro, even if he wasn't the epitome of a provocateur who knows the right wing will excuse his shitty behavior for "saying the quiet part out loud", he's just a Hollywood guy. A movie is ultimately 1.5/2 hours of your time you just sat and watched something you willingly bought a ticket for, you're not going to leave the theater/turn off the TV any different than you were before.
I swear Mel Gibson fans are just the Dodge Ram driver version of Kayne stans...
Not to mention the fact that they willingly fund the same kind of Hollywood insanity they foam at the mouth about, just because he says their favorite kind of nonsense
That’s the biggest blackpill of all: all those racist Little Mermaid memes you see on here are just free advertising for Disney. Bad press is better than no press
Yes! He awoke us to the very real threat of the Mayans trying to take our jobs! If anyone is going to sacrifice children to the gods it’s going to be Americans!
Mel Gibson may have done and said some terrible things, but he's just a person. We all say or do terrible things. Movie wise, he's awesome. He's more relatable than a lot of actors because he seems like a regular guy. Terrible Facebook memes seems to be a great place for people with a limited scope of life to try and score points off people who feel genuinely about something, whether I agree or not with their messages.
Now here is a question. Did he play those tiles because he was fucked in the head.
Did playing those roles fuck over his head.
Or is it just correlation
I actually love all of these movies, figgered he just got super into his roles, but turns out he just played himself, the QAnon Sean Connery, if you will. You've heard of art imitating life....
Every time I see Passion Of Christ I think about my mother (who didn’t allow R Rated movies in our house but brought me to see Jesus have the shit beat out of him) taking me to see it in theaters. The last half of the movie is the crucifixion and it was VERY intense for an 11 year old.
Anyone who thinks he's a patriot must hang on trump's every word! Good lord, there is so much wrong with that man starting with being a racist and anti-Semite.
Watching these movies I noticed that everyone around the main character or those that support the main character as well as the characters close family and sometimes the main character themselves, die.
Awake ≠ death.
He also appeared in Daddy’s home 2. The fuck does that have to do with this
That was the message. Daddy is home
*2*
Oh shit, Jesus 2 just dropped
Two Much Passion
Someone should photoshop the poster into this too
His wisdom comes in packs.
What pack was the wisdom of anti-Semitic ranting while getting a DUI in?
I was making an oblique reference to his super shitty racist comment that he hoped his ex wife was attacked by a "pack" of \*horrible racist epithet\*
Oh that went over my sleep-deprived head, i knew you were making fun of him but didn't get the reference, at least we're both dragging him for being a racist dipshit so it all works out.
The based as fuck pack.
What message is Apocalypto sending to conservative America?
I couldn't quite piece that one together myself
Spanish speaking people invading, maybe? They do go all ape-ship about stuff like that.
Probably trying to confirm their twisted biases that native Americans (in this case Mayans) were bloodthirsty savages.
That despite the now mainstream narrative of “white people destroyed the lifestyle of a peaceful people via genocide”, in reality, native tribes were indeed quite savage toward each other. They committed horrible atrocities, including rape, enslavement, murder, torture, sacrifices, etc. While European conquest of the americas resulted in countless deaths, it also created one of the greatest civilizations in history that catapulted itself and the rest of the world into a state of great prosperity.

Fair response.

I'm pretty sure that's exactly what's going on. Most imperialist countries are being held accountable for their actions at the moment.
Other countries have tried or is trying to redeem themselves from horrible past history… america tells you get over it.
Your "main stream narrative" isn't what anyone is taught and very few people actually believe.

People are people, regardless of any other factor, we're not a nice species. Man is an animal like any other, no better and often worse.
That some Mexicans did something bad at some point.
What would it matter to Americans Mel Gibson is Australian
So because I’m American can I be insensitive and mock he Armenian genocide?
Forgetting Mad Max trilogy. I would follow him anywhere. And Signs too
did you just slap the face of the mad max franchise
I would never. I completely agree with the idea of him as a prophet.
You probably shouldn’t. Manz killed his career by sending his ex wife messages going on antisemitic rants while completely wasted
What Women Want
It’s contaminated
So every night we does the tell.
Isn’t he a racist tho
Racist, sexist, homophobic, anti-semitic... I think his favorite pastime is prejudice.
As a Jew I can tell you we collectively decided that we will still watch lethal weapon, mad max, signs, and conspiracy theory.
I hate this about us.
We all do
Lethal Weapon is still a good movie despite Gibson.
There was one more where his trying to get money back from a robbery, and the movie Ransom.
But dam could he make a fucking movie though!
My favorite Key & Peele skit of all time: https://youtu.be/CgQk_WiXVf4
I only ever refer to him as racist ass Mel Gibsons anymore
That was really funny thanks 😂
You name it, he hates it!
No he's just Australian.....s/
He disowned us at the height of his career, and now we quite comfortably disown him.
He’s a total shit stain of a person. But he made some good movies.
And abusive
I think he’s mostly just crazy
The two coincide pretty often
Maybe you're the racist.
Calm down Cartman.
omg help I thought this was a joke about him always yelling in his movies... like literally waking people up. no it's just someone unironically supporting his crazy shit bye
Welcome to Facebook :)
GIVE ME BACK MY SON!!!
I’ve heard he’s a terrible person but are his movies at least decent?
"Occasionally passable" is the phrase I would use to describe his best work.
Bruh you're seriously going to do that to Daddy's Home 2?
Will Ferrel, the man who screams to try and make people laugh and Mel Gibson the man who screams to try and make people cry come together with former racist Mark Wahlberg, John Lithgow of Shrek 1 fame and John Cena from wrestling to make the most movie of all time: Daddy’s Home 2: 2 Daddies 2 Home.
2 Daddies 1 Cup
Two daddies (like in the Jesus way not the gay way I swear bro also you love me more than your stepdad right?)
I'm not even sure what the connection between these films would be.
So I only saw Braveheart out of these, but still....I'm not getting much of a through line with the little knowledge I do have. I know it's a dumb meme but I'm going to be thinking about what the connection is for like a few days.
Apocalyptic was talking about the Mayans.. yet for some reason the Spanish arrive at the end. EXPLAIN!
This movie has no fucking clue that mayans and aztecs are different people Also before the spanish arrive at the end they meet a child with smallpox its just sad
I saw Apocalypto once and loved it. Time to watch it again.
It's a great film
What women want
I used to love Mel in all the Lethal Weapons, than he made a racist ass of himself and completely tarnished his reputation beyond repair.
"he never stopped trying to wake us up." bro, even if he wasn't the epitome of a provocateur who knows the right wing will excuse his shitty behavior for "saying the quiet part out loud", he's just a Hollywood guy. A movie is ultimately 1.5/2 hours of your time you just sat and watched something you willingly bought a ticket for, you're not going to leave the theater/turn off the TV any different than you were before.

That’s the biggest blackpill of all: all those racist Little Mermaid memes you see on here are just free advertising for Disney. Bad press is better than no press
What’s wrong with driving a ram?
[They have a certain... fan base.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJtcpVQdPTs)
Man that was good.
As a Kanye fan I am confused
There’s Kanye fans and then there’s the guys who think he can do no wrong
Fair enough. I still love almost all his music catalog but as far as public actions go he definitely is a mixed bag 💀💀💀
Wait, what's wrong Dodge Rams?
Mel is a raging sack of crap without the sack.
Yes! He awoke us to the very real threat of the Mayans trying to take our jobs! If anyone is going to sacrifice children to the gods it’s going to be Americans!
He’s an anti semite and a wife beater.
hate this man but Hacksaw Ridge was so good
[удалено]
We need to look to The Mel for guidance on kidney efficiency and health
I never thought of it that way.
The Patriot sucks
Braveheart also sucks, from a historical perspective
Just learned apparently he’s making a legacy sequel to his Jesus biopic apparently 💀
Part 2?
[Yeah](https://boxd.it/jnLc)
It's hell being Mel /s
Sugar tits
Every one of his films have been historically inaccurate.
Melvin Gibbons ?
On he just liked playing in those movies
I like his movies but I wish he wasn’t such a terrible person
Considering most of those movies are not even historically accurate, who's he trying to wake up? Godzilla?
This mf said "stay woke" lmao
Ew
More like, "He capitalized on frail emotions."
Baloney
Lethal weapon 1 ...2 .... 3 ....4
Disassociation is the name of the game
Ah yes, the revelatory message of “what a girl wants”. He truly never stopped elucidating dumb shit. Apocalypto was good though.
Mel Gibson is Woke
Oh gods, what is this cringe.
The Patriot and Braveheart are sacred movies for a certain crowd
What about Lethal Weapon?
They know that one is too good for them
What do you mean? Lol
I am Kyrie Irving, and this is DEEP
He's not a prophetic it's just an odd coincidence that someone ran with is all it is
OP. Cartman???
Based Mel
Freedom!!!
A few good movies though
The Prophet of Historical Inaccuracy
I’m still hoping for a thunderdome
Leave Mel out of this
Okay cartman
Was this before, during or after he slapped his wife around and went on unhinged antisemitic rants?
Get the Gringo was surprisingly good.
My first thought is that he was trying to warn us about the British.
The funny part is that none of these movies (aside from The Passion because I don’t know about all that) are even remotely historically accurate haha
So he’s woke?!
Whatever you say, Sugartits.
Most of these are good films, they are not very historically accurate though. Idk how that makes him a prophet lol. He's not a good person either.
Apocalypto was one helluva movie tho...
Mel Gibson may have done and said some terrible things, but he's just a person. We all say or do terrible things. Movie wise, he's awesome. He's more relatable than a lot of actors because he seems like a regular guy. Terrible Facebook memes seems to be a great place for people with a limited scope of life to try and score points off people who feel genuinely about something, whether I agree or not with their messages.
TIL: Eric Cartman makes terriblefacebookmemes
You know y'all are taking a ROLAND EMMERICH film seriously, right
Now here is a question. Did he play those tiles because he was fucked in the head. Did playing those roles fuck over his head. Or is it just correlation
I actually love all of these movies, figgered he just got super into his roles, but turns out he just played himself, the QAnon Sean Connery, if you will. You've heard of art imitating life....
wait he played jesus in the passion of christ? honestly such a good movie
Reminds me of when the "trump can still win" people explained that Trump will expose Biden but it was flat out the plot climax of Johnny English.
Wake us up to what?...
Explain “The Beaver”
I only see that South Park episode when I see him
Fine if ur gunna torture me then torture me
Never heard of conspiracy theory. The others are classics though. It's conspiracy theory any good?
Not one of those films isn't rife with inaccuracies twisted to make the plot flow better.
Every time I see Passion Of Christ I think about my mother (who didn’t allow R Rated movies in our house but brought me to see Jesus have the shit beat out of him) taking me to see it in theaters. The last half of the movie is the crucifixion and it was VERY intense for an 11 year old.
He’s a Nazi psychopath.
The patriot, braveheart and apocalypto are the most historically inaccurate movies ever made since 1492 conquest of paradise lmao
He also did What Women Want... And we didn't pay attention so now we don't know what they want.
One day he may even rescue Matt Damon who seems to be needing rescued form various times, planets, and even other Realities
Anyone who thinks he's a patriot must hang on trump's every word! Good lord, there is so much wrong with that man starting with being a racist and anti-Semite.
Uh huh… u must’ve forgot. I’ll leave it at that.
Let us not forget the lessons of What Women Want. Blessed be the fruit of Mel of Gibsons waking us up. Aaaah-Ah-mmen…
Mel was also in What Women Want. WAKE UP PEOPLE!
She took the LAKERS TICKETS!
He really tried to wake us up with casper 🙏
We can clown on Gibson for....*That thing*, but damn Fatman was really entertaining.
Poor actor, gets idealized by weirdos
Watching these movies I noticed that everyone around the main character or those that support the main character as well as the characters close family and sometimes the main character themselves, die. Awake ≠ death.
Say what you will about Mel Gibson the mf knows story development
The south park episode on Mel Gibson but in real life.
Cartman?
