I recently finished watching Zoolander and it struck me with concernment-on-how-relevant-it-is-today parallels to powerscaling or any sort of thing where you try to verse two aesthetic/deterministic components..
First off the movie was made -obviously- with bad faith to bash people who like to compete with abstract/determined notions like clothing/looks (this mirrors todays looksmaxing/powerscalinh), I feel like they were "matildas" in that they were those hmm, burgers who had weird-yet-shitnobodycaresabout interests? Personally (not to sound zesty) I like fashion because its cool creating new clothes to outcool one another
>Inb4 negros do it too and they be peacocking n shieeeet
And why cant any other bird attract the female peacock?
The male peacock is the most beautiful bird! And so, who am I not to imitate?
-- short rant on negro culture--
You might flame me, but I think its a microcosm of white culture, just like how monkeys are microcosms of humans and how humans are microcosms of God ad infinitum (heraclitus talks about this) And id say Asian cultures (remember they had to force themselves to adopt white culture) are more seperated than black culture is to white culture
>same tribal warfare
>same appreciation for musjc
>same urge to review, u see this with commentary channels,or the negroes who rate food/music
Both these cultures were flashy too, the pagan architecture vs the negro
You see this with pagan statues too
They used to be so colorful but because of judaism/lutheranism and the need for "humility" and "realism" they memoryhole it to be gray! At least the catholics made fantastic art too till the virus eventually reached them as well, remember my saying
"Viruses work by infecting the weak first then killing the strong"
If you believe im wrong, id be glad to hear why I am so

To go back to square 1, you see with how they make the models (zoolander, and hansel iirc?) as being total ignoramouses, which aint the case (attractive people tend to be considered smarter) so its a cope. You see irl parallels with calling looksmaxxing/and looksmaxxers/powerscaling stupid when IE clavicular has a 1570 sat, or powerscalers who pull of advanced calculations to accurately define one characters feat. The movie is really in support of egalitarianism with the l
"Looks and clothes be really stupid brahhh" this is an irl parallel to "skateboard cat/oc fallacy" where derailers want to befuddle and mock powerscalers by "I CREATE NIGGAMAN, HE CAN BEAT GOKU" total bs. Besides it takes more art in creating aesthetically pleasing clothes then wearing bland cool colors seething at versusCHADS who dont even think about you, ever...
A modern parallel would be these moeshit or forsakendorks crying about us cuz we find them and cringe and enjoy superior artforms like manime and sincerity

Political messaging
Its a pre-2012 le FACTORY WORKERS AND CHILD SWEATSHOPS O ALGO
Nigga have u not heard of natural slaves? N these niggas start crying when were forced to remove a natural part of humanities hierarchy with ai, and subsequently theyre whining about that rn too 😹
They also link economic reasons as the cause of all assassinations and how it was done by models
>ie wilkes booth
>secret jfk killers
But the kirk and trump fail-assassins are ugly asf, and mangione killed the healthcare ceo for more regulations, so I think thats very false.
Tldr: Fashion, Looksmaxximg,Powerscaling is cool and dont let dorks tell u otherwise
Comedy wise id give it a 10/10; I laughed at every joke
Overall, maybe a 5 or 6/10
Thoughts?
