Moral lesson from KPop Demon Hunters

If you wonder what all the buzz is about the movie KPop Demon Hunters, you might want to watch it yourself. Apparently, the outfits worn by the female characters are becoming the costumes of choice for many trick or treaters. The songs in the film are certainly catchy, but the moral of the movie is even more interesting in our times. This is where a spoiler alert is needed. The three female leads are members of one band, and they are competing for their fan base with a demonic and evil boy band. What the fans do not realize is that if they become fans of the boy band, they will lose their souls. This is a pretty powerful message from a movie of fiction targeted at children and young adults. In the real world, we have a group of political enablers who appear to have given up their souls to become fans of a media saturating song and dance group who seem pretty demonic in their cruelty lately. To kick millions off of their healthcare plans or make them unaffordable just before Christmas seems like a new level of cruelty. Additionally, they have gone from a Cold War style verbal War on Christmas to more of a hot war by their actions. Food and toys have become more expensive or even unavailable due to the myopic actions of the demonic group running our government. Hopefully in our real world, an empathetic group like KPop Demon Hunters will eventually prevail.
