WE LOVE TO RIDICULE POLITICALLY INCORRECT MOVIES
‘THE DICTATOR’
Laughing at a dictator’s whimsical ways should not come without guilt. At least, that’s what most of the reviews assume in their statement, ‘we laugh, we feel guilty & then we laugh harder’.
Is it necessary to feel a twinge of guilt because we are laughing at a cruel man? This movie is explicit, bold & sassy in its unshaven armpits & self-driven hand jobs. We do not laugh at Hitler & yet Charlie Chaplin bears a striking resemblance we conveniently chose to ignore. We do not laugh at Hitler, period.
Because that is what we do in real life. We do not laugh, we do sarcasm. It allows us a midway to ignore their atrocious actions & its direct victims. This film forces us to look in our own armpits. And see how badly we smell. Not stink, but smell. Stink is a polite word. And this movie does not do polite.
It serves China on a plate, cuts the US in front of the UN & gives a new dress to the dictator of Wadiya, democracy. It brings to light a rich man’s pedophile habits & our own hypocrisy of treating prim celebrities like virgins because hey, they are not standing in a dark alleyway luring clients like a prostitute. We love them so much we ignore all the scandals & adore their sex-tapes in polite Instagram comments. This movie throws it on our face like vomit & yet we are not able to stop chuckling. That is, in summary, The Dictator.

WHAT THE PEOPLE THINK IT NEEDS
A coming of age of the dictator, by him changing his ways. But will it be real? If it did, it would be nothing but another glaring example of human hypocrisy. To want a social contract like Thomas Hobbes is obvious as its being one of the most dominant theories within moral and political theory throughout the history of the modern West. But this movie is made by Larry Charles, a feminist or a more aware person. He accepts that this way of life is an incomplete picture of our moral and political lives, and may in fact camouflage some of the ways in which the contract is itself parasitical upon the subjugations of classes of
