Understanding the meaning behind a work of media. However, nowadays it's a buzzword for insulting people for liking things. Case in point, Starship Troopers the film is supposed to be making fun of the "space nazis" and pointing out that they are the bad guys, but people started identifying with them because of poor writing and they're fun so leftists are melting down over it.

"Guy who actually lived through war and it's aftermath take umbrage with the interpretation of a warhawk who spent WW2 sitting on a beach in California."

Once media literacy used to be a skill/ talent, now it's just an insult, thanks lefties.
What is "media literacy"? Both ostensibly and really.
