‘The system is violence’ is a common phrase when it comes to the sociological concept of structural violence. In our world, it’s most commonly used in reference to racism, classism and sexism, but also in war and policing (and many other forms of violence). Within the world of the MCU and the ‘Loki’ show… It is used to explore the morals and ethics of the TVA, He Who Remains and Sylvie & Loki. In this video, I will breakdown the politics of the ‘Loki’ show, touching on the systemic issues of the TVA, the political ideologies and a general analysis of the narrative and its characters. Please note that this is my own personal interpretation and analysis.

This is a video version of my written analysis on Tumblr, ‘The Politics of Loki: The Revolutionary vs The Reformist and the Corrupt System’.

Disclaimer: I am not a professional and do not have a politics degree, this is a character analysis and subjective.
