Black Mirror : men against fire

men against fire

...is the perfect metaphor for Rwanda. They even call the "bad guys" Roaches.

Re: men against fire

Yeah, but it goes for any genocide (Native Americans, Jews, etc). It felt like they were mainly pulling from the holocaust with the way the psychologist guy was talking about their dirty DNA and crooked ways. Even before the twist was revealed I thought the army motto of "strong and pure" (or something to that affect) sounded Nazi-like.


I never saved anything for the swim back.

Re: men against fire

The way I see it, in order for any government to make their people fight in the war, they need to demonise the enemy. Kinda how american media demonises russians. Even the most liberal media, such as John Oliver and Stephen Colbert who suck asses of muslims, chime into and buy into the anti russian hate. Oliver can't agree with Putin even when Putin agrees with him.

Soon it'd be possible to implant people and make them all see demons government wants them to see, instead of human beings that are russians. It'd work much better than media control they utilise nowadays cause now some people are just beyond media manipulation and with implants controlling what you see and hear, no one is gonna question weather enemy deserves mercy
