Ghostbusters were totally neoliberals. Unlicensed nuclear accelerators, high voltage laser containment system in the middle of New York City, experimenting on humans... And the EPA employee was the bad guy? Total neolib propaganda.

The movie was about ghost hunters and a bunch of it was about turning it into a business, getting business loans for work property, and trying to get around rules and regulations to continue said business. It’s neoliberal horse shit.
Even worse, it's libertarian horse shit lmao
Great movie though.
True
But they were also cops contributing to the supernatural carceral state
They were judge, jury, and executioner.
uh, duh. 
I think there's even an article older than that on Cracked.com from 15ish years ago.
they're literally the ghostapo
Incredible
literal reaganite fever dream
The one funny conservative movie
I mean, yeah? The movies are about small business owners and one of their foes is the EPA. The movies lean pretty conservative.
