When a frustrated loner gains popularity as an Alt-Right vlogger, the online echo chamber turns his fears into a deadly rage.
An isolated and unstable man becomes increasingly unhinged as he explores the hateful rhetoric of an online alt-right community.
"When the fire comes, you're gunna burn." Gravitas has debuted an official trailer for an indie film titled Cuck, an intriguing take on an issue in American society today. When a frustrated loner gains popularity as an Alt-Right vlogger, the online echo chamber he finds solace in turns his insecurities into a deadly rage.
The term "cuck" (while also a sexual kink term) in this case means a man who is desperate for acceptance, approval, and affection from women.
Zachary Ray Sherman stars, with a cast including Sally Kirkland, Timothy V. Murphy, Monique Parent, and David Diaan. It's obvious that this is trying to comment on this online echo chamber / self-righteous rage culture, but seems to be trying a bit too hard to make a point.
They seem to be talking about US.

Gritty, sad, honkyHostile

It’s gonna bomb terribly. It just looks awful.
Oh, how original and daring ... NOT!
Won’t be surprised when a major studio releases an ANTIFA movie made in the image of Gangs of New York.
Sally Kirkland? Seriously?
Another smear on another shallow, two-dimensional stereotype of what Liberals say being conservative means.
Any host on Main stream media such as CNN could write this script and tell pretty much the same presumptive story.
Don’t expect many surprises.
***Before I even figured out the definition, I never did like that new word ‘Cuck’, and I have never used it. That adjective always sounded derisive, a little slanderous.
Now I know why.
Derivative of “cuckold.”
They are talking about US. I wont be viewing it, even though I can download it the day of release (dang near free).
Good find as in something to avoid.
Robert Lambert, filmmaker.
Yeah, Cuck
You know youre making progress when they have to make propaganda to frame the narrative.
WHAT AN ABSURD LIE! the author knows full well that a "cuck" is a man who revels in beings cheated on.
As a desperate Cruz supporter/never Trumper, I was accosted by a few on FR for being a "cuck": the suggestion of which was that I would get off orgasmically when Cruz violated the basis of my political fidelity by not keeping his promises to build a wall, end Obamacare, defund Planned Parenthood, protect the 2nd Amenfment, remove us from futile wars, restrain the Judicial Branch etc...
Even though it didn't matter, I still feel a little "cuckish" for voting for McCain, but it was because I was desperate for Sarah Palin's approval /sarc.
Whether any of us are "cucks" or alt. right cuck accosters, it's blatently evident the Druidic Democrats want ti blend us all into the same Soylent Green New Deal.
Sounds like a vanity project that will disappear without a trace. Zombieland’s star Jesse Eisenberg was in The Art of Self-Defense, which went after martial arts practitioners. That managed a box office take of $2.4m.

Geeze, talk about projection. Flip a few words, and the plot summary sounds just like Antifa.
It cost peanuts to make and will go straight to a streaming service.
The loony Left is behind many shootings but the media just chalks it up to “personal problems” and “rambling manifestos”.

Soon to be trending now on Netflix.
There are various definitions. The one which seems most prevalent:
A "cuck" is a man with so little self respect that he tolerates being treated with contempt by those around him. It comes from the word "cuckold", a man who's woman feels safe in openly cheating on him, and who's woman's lovers feel safe in him knowing about them. Someone who would never think of taking action against those to treat him with contempt. A man not worthy of being considered a man in the traditional sense.
