I’m facing a dilemma here.
On the one hand, I believe Ivanka and Elmo are both devious enough to take the message of someone they despise and use it for themselves.
On the other hand, both are probably too stupid to understand the message in the first place. The old malintent vs. incompetence problem.
To be fair, I also never interpreted the message of these movies in this way; but on the other hand, I was about 13 when the movie released here, and I can’t remember referring to any of the movie’s elements since then, less so to use them as allegories. While impressive in a technical way back then, they never had such a lasting impact on me.
Considering that taking the red pill causes you to awaken to the realities of the world around you, and you could describe that as being woke, I’d say they’re idiots.
