Music
Sia's Ableist, Poorly-Researched "Masterpiece"

I'd love more Autistic-centered movies. Just not like this one.
A badly-researched, poorly-executed sensory nightmare, Sia claimed "Music" was Autism-centered for Activist!Points, when it was actually full of racist&ableist stereotypes.
It wants us to cheer that the actual protagonist didn't institutionalize her Autistic sister.
(Not to mention the off-screen bullsh*t...)

Interesting take! I honestly don’t remember the film very well… I’d have to review it to fully digest your critique. Very interesting.
Ugh, that sounds really bad! Excellent review!
Thanks, Natasja. I think I'll just skip this one.
