Hopper ended up being a perfect example of Machiavelli's warning towards tyrants: make your subjects fear you, but don't make them HATE you or they WILL defy you out of desperation.

Jeff Bezos in the billionaire's club talking about unions:

It's kind of funny because in almost every circumstance... Groups don't come together at all. It doesn't seem to matter how many times you show them something like this.

Hopper is great, but his plan would have made more sense if he wasn't just bullying ants. He should have positioned himself as the barrier between them and a greater threat. So that there was a real belief that in overthrowing or not feeding Hopper and his gang, the ants would be wiped out by something else, something Hopper could pretend grasshoppers are uniquely suited to fighting.

This is how villains gain so many henchmen.
People with "The Villain is right" mindset.

A Bugs Life is practically that one in the back of the classroom that no one really took seriously even though he knew things.

[DonVigaDeFierro]

Nowadays ants would side with the grasshoppers and claim that Flick is a crazy conspiracy theorist.

Klaus Schwab at the World Economic Forum:

I love when children's movies have somewhat hidden social critiques, you realise what they really meant with time

[Despotic_Waffle]

A lot of kids cartoons, movies and shows used to (and some still do) have deep morals and messages about society

[NastyArchive-qkwr]

Comments be like

"erm, this is so applicable to our modern political climate 🤓"

Its displaying human social conflict since the dawn of time. Not a specific time frame. Of course it could be applied to the current year, because human nature is unchanging.

If the grasshoppers were smart, they'd set up a dummy government and invent social issues along with back-to-back crises to distract the ants and redirect their frustration.
