So take that for what you will.

Odd how this movie that's been out for 8 months would only now be judged on this then. I'll just quote what a friend had to say
"Anything can be misinterpreted by anyone. Generally speaking the film is considered a strong representation of these issues, an interesting coming of age story, and a specific story about a specific culture that the filmmaker is intimately familiar with as it is her own. And so for white america to take it and just market it in a way that is supposed to appeal to pedophiles I think it's a trash fucking take to blame the filmmaker or film for creating a piece of art based on her own life and culture. Especially because she had to scrub her fucking online presence as a result just to escape the harassment. I think that art should be allowed to exist. I think that art depicting difficult subjects should be allowed to exist, whether or not it succeeds at tackling them. I think that art coming from such a unique cultural perspective should be allowed to exist. I also think that this conversation wouldn't be so charged if Netflix hadn't done literally the most garbage thing they could've done with it. There is no good that comes from tarring something like this with such a broad brush, and I also don't think the right wing has anyone's best interest in mind lmao. The conversation as it stands is not "does this work at tackling these themes" (which I may add a large amount of critics thought it did when it was screened independently and in it's home country) but a conversation of whether this art should exist at all because of an American corporation thinking they could get away with doing something unconsciable based on marketing suits with poor taste and that's fucked up six ways from sunday".
TLDR It's getting criticized for talking about something difficult by people who have no fucking clue what they're talking about who judge the whole thing on Netflix's awful marketing and it's not a coincidence a black refugee woman is getting hate for something about her own experiences by white people
