Judd Apatow's movie, 'Trainwreck' is a 2 hour-long exposé on how an alien virus is programming us to ride on the Road to Ruin. By using associations and name-dropping, the whole sordid affair is spelled out for us.
Associations are made to make certain ideas both positive ones and negative ones. Name-dropping is used both to magnify and to humiliate.
Viral memes meant to derail humanity-women shouldn't enjoy a man's affections, just his sexual anatomy-men should be sexually aroused by observing male aggression-the butt is sexually arousing-men are predators/stalkers if they pursue women after sexual relations-men are serial killers-you'll never actually have black friends so you'll have to lie about it-breath control-the black man's role is to serve the white man-only male offspring have value-Fascist march training-smoking weed is cool-only bloodline offspring have value-it's only normal when married couples are fighting-incest between a father and his son is humorous-Infidelity is humorous-theme song lyrics, "Ima do my thing..I don't give a fuck"- pedophilia promoted ("boner for young people")- Magazine ‘Snuff’ (humans killing humans for entertainment)- interns called “it” and “this” (object rather than subject)- men are gay because women are boring- small breasts on women are ridiculed- males are vain, stupid, shallow and feminine- women see men as sex objects- women have no love for children- women have no respect for men- fathers teaching children (daughters) that divorce is legitimate because monogamy is boring- adult daughters sexualizing their mother- adult daughters devaluing the worth of their father- being sexually selfish is promoted.- trash objects that have sentimental meaning- making light of sexual abuse in nursing homes- men want sex with any female that isn’t their spouse- pretending to like someone is encouraged- Homeless people defecate in cars or anywhere other than actual bathrooms- men climax during sexual intercourse with women when fantasizing about having sex with men.
