    The Left Page - Oddysscourse. The Tragedy of MAGA-memnom

    Hello everyone!! Today we're starting off with our new kinds of episodes, as we discuss a more broad element... the discourse on the new Oddyssey film! We've often talked about historical representation, mythology, and what "historical accuracy" can mean, but not as directly as of yet. So this time we went full into some of the terrible ways those are all used, distanced from any interesting or useful cultural critique, and only a terrible weapon to brandish. So come along as we seek to prepare ourselves and others to not fall into those same pitfalls and traps that are misrepresenting and confusing all at once. Enjoy! Video Mentioned:

    Here Be Media - Episode 63 - Superman: Fortress of Imperialism w/ André

    Hello everyone!! We're wrapping up the year in serious fashion, diving once back into Imperialism everywhere, with the 2025 Superman, and bringing our superhero liasion along, André! This was a film really well talked about for being positive, and progressive and... things which it isn't. It's still imperialist and still very much on the US' side when thinking about anything. So come along as we look at this at first, maybe good superhero film, and yet, rather vile film, regardless of its liberal good intentions. Enjoy! And do check out André's text on superhero films and his interview with good friend Jon from Horror Vanguard: https://operamundi.uol.com.br/cultura/filmes-de-super-heroi-e-possivel-escapar-do-cinismo/ https://youtu.be/-KFmOxZ1-z4?list=LL If you can and are interested in early episodes and our bonus content, soon to be plenty more, check out our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leftpage  Also!
