'Top Gun: Maverick' is 'insidious' for portraying 'virtue' of U.S. military: MSNBC editor

MSNBC editor Zeeshan Aleem slammed Oscar-nominated 'Top Gun: Maverick' as 'insidious' for portraying the American military as a 'beacon of virtue.'

President Biden has faced criticism for overreacting after facing Republican criticism for reacting too slowly to the Chinese spy balloon" as the"most insidious movie" at the Oscars" because it shows the U.S. military as a"beacon of virtue."

He declared it is insidious because of its overt pride for the American military, saying,"it also beckons for a return to accepting the American war machine as a beacon of virtue and excitement." He explained,"In exchange for access to military aircraft, the producers of the movie agreed to allow the Defense Department to include its own ‘key talking points’ in the script. Perhaps equally important, the script had to be written in a manner that flatters the military in order to secure the buy-in of the Pentagon."
