No but they do have context which seems to go way over your head. We have kids that everyone thinks is evil. But they aren't however and do the right thing. Contrary to what everyone believes about them. So by saying evil lives and show g the kids that the movie shows you are the opisit and in fact nothing like people expect them to be.

So the marketing campaign was based on peoplea perception of the kids. But as is often the case reality is something different.

That is what it means when you call people blind.

What is meant by the blind reference is exactly what I said. The words are wrote out for you and me to see. Words that mean only one thing. Anyone that perceives those words as innocent are blind to the true meaning of those words.
I will state the words of which I speak now.

Long Live Evil. I know what Evil means, I would like to think all of us really knows what evil means.

But then they actually see the movie and it turns out they are not evil, then they go out and become goths.

The premises of those words doesn't have anything to do with the movie. The simple fact that it is on there should be concern enough, but people want it and defend it. I don't know about you, but to me that seems to show society in all of it's blindness.

My head? I do believe I have been caught in the crossfire.

When you combine them into sentences they do.

Good, because that is what I meant.

Unlike you, who are better than that?

You might be thinking of something else.

subjectivity
Subjectivity refers to how someone’s judgment is shaped by personal opinions and feelings instead of outside influences.

Wow seriously why don't you come off the evangelical trip and join the rest of us in the real world.

Are we talking about something that is not happening right now?

The advertisements said the new face if evil this I'd a play off that.

I have no idea what you mean by this sentence. Clarify please.

Yes. Why don't you just fixate on an imaginable slight so you don't have to address my full comment. I don't thing that type of debating will solve anything.

Your full comment is sanctimonious. I already addressed that.

You think anything we type on these boards is going to change, let alone solve anything?

Besides, what does solve mean anyway? To me it means people would stop overreacting to petty things like words on a movie poster but I don't have any hope of "solving" that.

You may be right about my choice of words. I should have used Objective.

It also means this according to your source.

the capacity to assess situations or circumstances shrewdly and to draw sound conclusions

When Disney said on advertisements the new face of evil they show you cute little teenagers who like to sing and dance. If this is the evil that lives I think will be OK. My advice to you Don't Panic if this kind of evil took over the world would probably be a better place. Even the fight scene they sing. So before you make a judgement on good and evil you might want to look at something called context.

It was only sanctimonious from your POV. Not from mine.

I do it in the hopes of learning something. Why do you do it?

Besides, what does solve mean anyway? To me it means people would stop overreacting to petty things like words on a movie poster but I don't have any hope of "solving" that.

It solves nothing. Did you want it to? If you want think that it is okay to have those words on a movie poster that is your right. I am okay with that. You are the one trying to tell me it is not okay for me to have my opinion because my opinion offends you. Are you the only one allowed to be offended by something? As far as over reacting I don't plan on have starting a Stop the Evil march to protest it, because it doesn't offend me. It just worries me that people are blind to the actual meaning of that sentence.

It is okay to make lite of it. It is too late to do anything about it. I am not panicking. I learned the truth a while back. I am just making observations that reiterate lessons I have been taught as to that truth. There is nothing good in evil.

All ill say is Disney tried to teach people something here that you haven't learned yet but hey may these kids can teach you something.

It was objectively sanctimonious.

Personal learning is not changing things like phrases on a movie poster.

It solves nothing. Did you want it to?

I don't expect it to.

I never said it offends me.

You expressed your opinion and I expressed why I disagree.

Would you agree words are powerful ?

Not only that but words can incite people to act , would you agree ?

I only ask because if that Disney movie had words like white supremacy or neo Nazis I reckon there might be a few people that would say words are in fact a real problem.

Careful or you will invoke lesmis.

You would be correct but some of us would still say it is just a movie poster.

And if it is anything like American History X, with edward norton sporting a swastika tattoo, but the content of the movie is anti-nazi, then one could easily double down.

I'm not that good with words but thx.


Lets face it, how many people would be raging if those words were "let Nazis in" instead.....humor me...

Words can also change the world. Now I'll refer you back to video I posted.
