10 Movies That Are Terribly Racist About Aliens

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqt9L4fIExA Like Evangelion, a giant alien rolls into town, and screws up stuff. Unlike the Angels, however, this guy actually is causing harm, gathering humans up into his nest, killing people, and just demolishing a lot of property. And then we learn the government tortured him. Why does the world government seem determined to anger every single angel that comes into our hands? Why do they think that electrocuting aliens would possibly be a good idea? What was going through their heads? "Maybe if we beat this thing fifty more times, it'll tell us the secrets to the universe!" Why? What would that POSSIBLY accomplish? It's telling that only the main character can understand the beast when he treats it -- surprise surprise -- like an actual person with feelings and emotions. Only the young messiah boy can tell whether or not the raging alien is capable of rational thought. Everyone else just assumes the tortured, pissed off alien is an animal. Check your privilege, humanity! Check...your...privilege!
