It’s the hypermasculine alpha male hero worship ego thing. (All of which you are not). Most of these movies these days are a good indicator of how many people are typical and think along a similar societal demographic. The military has a division that creates “echo chambers” so people are more easily segregated into labor class divisions. I made a point in my life to escape my American conditioning and now I can see it objectively. Most of these movies to me just feel like over produced propaganda keeping people believing in their lower and middle income positions so they feel valued for thinking like each other.
