literally this is a movie that mashes up retro top gun imagery with the rah rah war on terror and then the whole first two thirds of the film are revealed to be pro-kree propoganda, carol has been lied to by the military about EVERYTHING from her past to the nature of the skrulls

I really feel like this is the kind of thing people deliberately have to reach to *not* get because of the Girl Power thing Like it's *extra important* we critique anything that looks liberal feminist *extra hard*

Like if Carol were in fact a man and this were a story of "One man who turns his back on the band of brothers he devoted his life to to follow his conscience" would we feel the need to say "Okay but there's still a ton of positive military tropes here, it's not fully anti-war!"?

That's oddly similar to the backstory for Jack Reacher.
