Here's a list of tons of leftist movies.
Not everyone needs to vibe to a movie. I've seen stuff that everyone was raving about and felt nothing. Like Juno didn't do anything for me, although the expectation that everyone loved it probably didn't help. Also maybe this isn't your thing. I'm in my mid-forties, and I know that my comrades in their twenties can't fucking sit through a whole movie, and that's fine. Also maybe you haven't a high expectation didn't help.
I guess I've had such low expectations for films, they're always such lib pieces of shit. Whereas Fury Road at least had patriarchal white men as the reason that everyone was fucked, and the rejection of all that as the way things are gonna get better. The film references the US oil wars, and frequently asks the question "who destroyed the world". It's pretty obvious that militaristic dudes destroyed the world, although it doesn't explicitly answer that.
Honestly you don't have to like it.
It asks, "who killed the world?" And it answers: patriarchy (immortal Joe and his desire to recapture the wives), greed and oil(the corpulent guy in the limo truck from gas town), and militarism(the bullet farmer in his tank)
Dude is literally named The People Eater
You cannot get more on-the-nose than that and I love it
The Bullet Farmer praying to Heckler and Koch.
