BLUF: In 2025, hackers shed light on the secretive collaboration between Former President, Barack Obama, and Bob Iger, the CEO of Disney, unveiling a comic script dealing with broad-ranging societal issues, spurring a variety of views from different perspectives.
OSINT: The setting is a world that seems riddled with absurdity, where anticipation of the future is growing. As part of a futuristic satirical practice, stories are created based on the current trajectory of affairs. The narrative zooms into a story revolving around a purported collaboration between Disney and former President Barack Obama.
Until now, Disney’s newest addition to the MCU, “Trans-Thor: Hammer of Change,” hasn’t been atoll successful. Consequently, Disney decided to breathe life into a new superhero series attuned to modern trends. Partners in this endeavor were Bob Iger, Disney’s CEO, and Barack Obama, who had shown his flair as a film producer earlier in his Netflix project, “Leave the World Behind.”
In an unexpected twist, the fruits of their collaboration were made public when hackers accessed a server with emails and movie scripts corresponding to the secretive project. The film in question, “Activist Alliance: Justice Against the Hate Machine,” delves into the journey of a non-binary gender studies doctoral candidate spinning into the superhero, “Virtue Signal,” fighting against, among others, free speech absolutists who resist censorship.
While the leaked script has sparked interest, whether it will affect the film’s expected summer release remains a mystery.
RIGHT: A conservative or libertarian perspective might voice concerns over the explicit intent of the script to promote ideological narratives, arguably infringing on free speech. The perceived vilification of the straight white cis-male is arguable, and the intent to “re-educate” this demographic, as featured in the script, might be viewed as an encroachment on individuals’ autonomy.
LEFT: Those leaning towards more liberal or socialist views might appreciate the efforts embodied in this project as a venture to promote socio-cultural changes. From this viewpoint, it’s seen as a long-awaited vehicle for encouraging inclusivity and equal representation, tackling systemic issues such as racism, misogyny, and homophobia, and tearing down biases against marginalized communities.
AI: The script’s overarching theme, aiming for socially vigilant superheroes battling societal ills, exemplifies a fresher adaptation of entertainment media, reflecting modern socio-cultural trends. However, the piece’s tone and hypothesis also demonstrate strong political undertones, implying that entertainment media often intertwines with societal ideologies and power struggles. Given the undocumented and unauthorized way this information reached the public, may further affect its interpretation and reception, ultimately influencing how it could affect or reflect global media culture.
