Just finished I’m A Virgo - which was awesome - and couldn’t help but think of Spike Lee’s seemingly incoherent ideology and how, while Boots continues to release bangers, Spike shills crypto.

Admittedly, I have only seen two of Spike Lee’s “social” movies, Do The Right Thing (which I really didn’t “get” - please chime in if you can clarify) and Bamboozled (which I thought was poignant but a bit heavy handed and nihilistic). It appears to me that Spike Lee grasps the racial inequities in American society, but doesn’t grasp the greater dimensions - he’s trapped in, or has fallen into the trap of, detached liberalism.

I could be way off base here, so I hope y’all can offer some illumination - it seems like the crucial difference between Spike and Lee is that Boots has read theory.

Thoughts?
