THE SUICIDE SQUAD. FEAR THE KAIJUS!
A "one-eyed, red white and blue, star-shaped" Kaiju laying waste to a Central American town?
Correct! Just like in real life!
Making up a story to justify the act and for the Congress to pump more billions in? Like WMD in Iraq just to screw Saddam up?
Yes!
Oh, "one-eyed, red white and blue, star-shaped" Kaiju’s mini-me spawning and sticking on the face of the population, controlling their minds?
Yes! Like the phone you are holding now! "Big Brother" is always watching!
THE REAL KAIJU
James Gunn is having a ball. He is putting up a gargantuan middle finger towards the US with Suicide Squad but the majority sitting in the government and the tech billionaire club is too dumb to get the satire and sarcasm.
Or does it is just simply mean that is all we can do?
The Kaiju is a metaphor of what a monster the US is to the world. Like Godzilla is the horror of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atom bomb, and King Kong is a metaphor for raging racism in the 1930s.
This monster is far bigger. You have tech billionaires worth trillions of dollars, a wealth of 60 nations combined gathering in places like Davos and Sun Shine Valley to discuss how to get richer and richer even after hitting the jackpot during this pandemic!
All of the wealth is trickling upwards, people. Oh here's Facebook and Tiktok for you. Enjoy.
Look at how he pokes fun at the military. Killing the wrong people? Picking any of your own people regardless of their age or skill sets? And sacrificing them as a diversion? Conscription, anyone?
And news flash! Afghanistan is the new Vietnam!
THE RATS COMETH! FEAR THE PIED PIPER!
So how do we bring down the Kaiju? Like how George Carlin says, send them the New York rats!
But this is not just any rats. This is the increasing homeless and jobless population in the US and the government is not doing anything about it. To them, they are just rats.
This time, the Pied Piper sending the Black Death upwards!
Them billionaires are busy with the space race and the Congress just pumped in billions for the weapons and nothing for the homeless and jobless.
The rats finally brought the "one-eyed, red white and blue, star-shaped" Kaiju down. The oppressed in the US of A takes the government down to its knees. Perhaps not through loop-holed democracy, but with raw coup.
What a fitting allegory for the invaders!
