Ok, Sun, then indulge me.....What are your examples ? |
Of political media, my go to example would probably be Metal Gear Solid. That series in insanely political.
I would generally consider things like The Exorcist and The Shining to be pretty apolitical. You can perhaps read into some stuff like the Native American Burial Ground stuff in The Shining as "political" but that is enough of a fringe topic in the movie that I don't think it's worth mentioning.
I would personally define a "political" piece of media as something that takes a stance along the lines of some pre-existing political division.
The Shining pretty strongly is anti Domestic Violence, but as there isn't really much of a political division about attempting to dismember your wife, I don't think it makes sense to call it political.
