The Creators of Small Soldiers
The movie, Small Soldiers, is an action comedy that is impressive at criticizing unnecessary warfare. The movie was probably created with the intention to criticize the Vietnam war in 1965 that lasted for multiple years. The Vietnam war was a war that American citizens doubted and did not support. With the release of the Pentagon Papers, it was noted that there were severe discrepancies with the Vietnam war. Wars like the American Revolution, Civil War, and the Second World War were justified. However, other wars were not including Vietnam.
In Small Soldiers, two different toys are created. One group of toys is a war commando group made up of rambuctious, loud mouthed, and destructive soldiers. The Gorgonites is made up of pacifist, harmonious, and calm toys that are not looking for war yet are capable of defending themselves. The toys are able to essentially move by themselves and act by themselves.
The destructive toys look to destroy the peaceful toys and in the midst of this they also attack human beings. Children playing with the toys notice that the destructive toys are malevolent and want to cause destruction. In the movie, the child who buys both groups of toys notices that the commando is evil and disobedient. The commando looks to cause destruction harming and hurting even the child who bought the toys.
The peaceful toys are benevolent and do not look to cause harm but they do defend themselves from the envy of the destructive toys. The children and human beings begin to see that the destructive toys are evil and need to be deactivated since they have technological enhancements chips that allowed them to be destructive. The humans collect the destructive toys and take them out of circulation to prevent more attacks and destruction. (This is describing the plot of the movie, and I am not suggesting that we persecute back. King Jesus Christ has the vengeance, and we keep worshiping GOD Almighty.) The movie described the importance of pacifism and having healthy skepticism about appearances.
Having Healthy Skepticism About Fake Appearances
While the commando toys were more appealing (in appearances), the commando toys were evil and wanted to cause harm. The film describes the importance of judging based on character and not based on appearances. The commando toys had square jaws, large muscles, and were essentially the poster boys of "supposed masculinity" for idol worshipers when in reality they were envious, foolish, and destructive. (It is possible to be masculine by being ethical, moral, and practicing empathy. Masculinity has to do with having a good character and practicing integrity instead of having a square jaw or being roided out on testosterone based on the MGTOW "Chad ideal" for idolators.)
MGTOW and marxist-feminism is notorious for attempting to give preference to tall men because it is based on idol worship. Heightism is an actual discriminatory thing practiced by socialists and idolators. This is when there have also been impressive shorter athletes and individuals that have done good for society. The point is not to hate based on shortness or tallness but to remove favoritism based on height since there have been impressive individuals who have been discriminated based on height. Hating based on superficial measures is from idol worship (i.e. height, ethnicity, race (being multi-racial), melanin production (skin color), social class, being skinny or being chunky, language spoken, even facial features like aquiline noses have caused envy from idolators and is from the snake). Small Soldiers taught the need to have healthy skepticism about appearances especially when the appearances are hiding large deficits of character. (Not all tall people are evil either, yet heightism is real and gives preference to taller people even when they may be destructive and not helpful. There are also evil short people too. The important point is to have healthy skepticism and to pay attention to the moral character of a person. This is so that we avoid socialist idolators.) Masculinity is not based on superficial physical characteristics but on having morality and ethics. Morality and ethics can be developed. It seems naïve to favor a person for only having a square jaw while they may be destructive socialists who are asocial, narcissistic, and destructive. This is the moral of the movie. (Oh and the movie was negatively criticized and given 5 stars out of 10 for criticizing neoconservative warmongerring "leanings" concerning warfare. This is a criticism on those who start and foment unnecessary wars like Vietnam where it is more of a business. I am not criticizing military service in general (There were veterans of World War II who fought against racism like JFK and Joseph McCarthy who were also persecuted by the socialists. Solzhenytsin was also persecuted by Soviets for fighting the nazi socialists. There are and were amazing World War II veterans.) The criticism is about unneeded warfare that seeks to make money out of conflict most notably seen in Vietnam. (There were veterans of the US in the Vietnam war who went to fight against socialism with sincerity of heart and their service is appreciated. The critique is against the treacherous snakes who start unneeded wars and supply and train both sides of the war (i.e. Kissinger, Secretary of State under Nixon). Since then, there have been numerous unnecessary wars fought. There is the need to be skeptical about appearances and deceit in the times that we live in also. In the times that we live in, we can persevere worshiping GOD Almighty without resorting to violence although the Constitution does guarantee freedom to bear arms in the United States for self-protection and not to instigate.) We are probably living in not the best of times due to the amount of corruption and deceit that has been seen since the 1950s when socialist snakes persecuted McCarthy and assassinated JFK out of envy because McCarthy spoke truth and JFK was making the world a better place.
