Who cares about that? Nobody thought of him before the movie. His popular image was as some tragic man who was sad about what he had made.
I haven't seen the movie yet, but I have seen a short documentary about him because of it, and I've seen him clearly say that Hiroshima/Nagasaki was more force than he would have chosen, although he does not regret making the bomb since it was necessary to beat the other powers to it.
Oppenheimer's a communist jew. What a coincidence that communists keep trying to make him look like a good guy or a tragic guy. Also werent you the same guy who kept trying to insist that it was fine for Matt Walsh to mislead people in to thinking Magnus Hirschfeld the guy who opened one of the first transgender clinics was a German when he was actually jewish?
Don't know what you're talking about, although one can be both German and Jewish.
My point is that nobody hated Oppenheimer prior to this movie, he was already thought of as a tragic guy, so it makes no sense that the film's purpose was to rehabilitate his image. His popular image didn't need rehabilitation.
My guess is that Nolan wanted to make a biopic with a known name of whom not much is known, and fell in love with the idea of filming a practical effect that looked like a nuclear explosion.
Im talking about the time Matt Walsh misled people in to thinking that Magnus was German (when he was actually jewish) and you defended Matt Walsh. . But its clear where you stand on this issue .
And no. You cant be German and jewish. You can only be German. If you need to add anything else to that, then you arent German.

I'm both Peruvian and Catholic. It is possible, I swear it.
OK, thanks Uncle Adolph!
Blut und Boden, eh?
My father fought you fuckers in 1943-44. When will you learn to stay dead?
Aka the Narrative
I guess they felt he needed a boost for one reason or another. If you haven't noticed, anything but total celebration of them isn't good enough.
