Nearly every news article gushed over it while award ceremonies threw all their trophies at it, including numerous Oscars.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, they really want us to watch and love the movie. More importantly, they want us to \u201csoak up\u201d its messages and underlying philosophy. Of course, there is a reason for this: <em>Poor Things<\/em> conveys, in an admittingly creative way, the twisted worldview the elite wants us to adopt. And that includes the sexualization of children.<\/p>\n<p>On a surface level, <em>Poor Things<\/em> bears all the makings of a great film. The wardrobe, the set designs, and the performances are all top-notch. However, on a deeper level, something is \u201coff\u201d about this movie. It provokes in many a gut feeling that they\u2019re watching something \u2026 wrong.<\/p>\n<p>In a way, the movie wants us to feel that way. The music is strident, atonal, and dissonant, creating an unsettling atmosphere. Some scenes seem custom-made to be challenging to watch and difficult to stomach.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<div id=\"attachment_283737\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/poorthings2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-283737\" class=\"wpa-warning wpa-image-missing-alt wp-image-283737\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/poorthings2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"406\" data-warning=\"Missing alt text\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/poorthings2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/poorthings2-480x305.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 640px, 100vw\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-283737\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bella (who literally has the brain of a child) plays with the penis of a dead man to then repeatedly stab him in the eyes using a scalpel.

As explained in <a href=\"https:\/\/vigilantcitizen.com\/moviesandtv\/blonde-how-ana-de-armas-was-made-to-relive-marilyn-monroes-traumas-as-an-industry-slave\/\">my article<\/a> about this brutal movie, numerous scenes appeared to be specifically written to place Ana de Armas in situations where she is naked and sexually degraded. While the movie was about Marilyn Monroe, it was also about Ana de Armas herself taking part in degrading, near-pornographic scenes as some Hollywood \u201crite of passage.\u201d And, despite the fact that viewers panned <em>Blonde<\/em>, de Armas was rewarded with an Oscar nomination for Best Actress.<\/p>\n<p>As we\u2019ll soon see, Emma Stone underwent a similar process in <em>Poor Things<\/em>. She\u2019s often completely naked and involved in near-pornographic scenes (often degrading) involving numerous men. She was also rewarded by winning the Oscar for Best Actress in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Ironically, the movie is said to be \u201cfeminist,\u201d although it was written by a man, directed by a man, and based on a book written by a man. But that doesn\u2019t matter because, through symbolism, the core message goes way deeper than feminism. It is about distorting everything that is pure, good, and natural.
