On the latest FFR, we play volleyball with Maverick, Iceman, Goose & the rest of the boys from Top Gun! Is it military propaganda presenting a carefully calculated image of masculinity? Is it a film dripping with queer subtext? Can it be both? Listen now! https://feministfrequency.com/video/ffr-47-top-gun/ …pic.twitter.com/3XRFIykqkJ

The production paid to use the machines and? Your article counters the idea that this was designed that way, did you read it? Pretty sure there can be military movies that are not propaganda. This one was one of them. Its a cartoonish love story, the flying was just the setting

Dude. What? Nothing you're saying makes any sense. Just because the production paid the navy doesn't mean the film wasn't propaganda, or that the military wasn't significantly involved in its creation. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/25-years-later-remembering-how-top-gun-changed-americas-feelings-about-war/2011/08/15/gIQAU6qJgJ_story.html?utm_term=.2c62f436d001 …
