They literally lost the plot while making the movie. The director himself said the plot was the weakest part that he wished he had redone. He liked how everything else ended up.

I have a sneaking suspicion it's yet another allegory for social unrest in South Africa.

It's never even slightly implied, for all we know it's ultra capitalism that ruined the world (which is the tone of the movie anyway)

Poor people are poor because the rich exploit them. You missed the point of the entire movie.

Since the whites were too scared to wipe out the brown hordes they should have just gave the brown hordes some of their space magic technology to keep them on earth instead of letting them continously try to invade the space station

Elysium is actually the best and only the ending ruins it. They wanted to make a statement about healthcare but it's too simplistic.

In the movie the medbeds are easily available, require no maintenance, resources or knowledge to setup and operate. Millions of them are already loaded into a delivery system that would distribute them all over the world and all it takes is one person pushing the button that launches them. They are a literal free cure for every affliction a person can have and the only reason they are not available to the masses is because the ruling class doesn't want them to. It makes them cartoonishly evil.

But healthcare is different. The US doesn't have universal healthcare because it would have to completely restructure the budget and several industries and the laws that regulate those industries. The analogy simply doesn't work. It's so bad that it betrays the movies message.

literally this. their entire win condition was just a few of those med bays

Yes Ivan we know you're raiding. No Ivan this doesn't make me want fascism either. No Ivan it's not brown people bad, it's literally about the upper class taking advantage of people to create 3rd worlders.

Sleep Dealer is another movie with great view of the possible future of the border of the USA and Mexico. It’s a bit amateurish but it’s worth watching it for the story and ideas alone. Could be something worth considering remaking.

Then they would have had to face the inevitable fact that brown warlords will confiscate and control all the white man's tech and dole out favors to those who serve them best.
I can hardly believe, even now, that there are so many people that actually think that the poor, stupid masses are so perfectly communal and altruistic to share miracle tech on their own volition.

There should be a sequel where we see the results of allowing those on Earth onto Elysium where they just ruin everything and all the technological marvels get destroyed and then they blame the whites

I mean it is fiction.
But I did always find it humorous that it's just "we don't want them to be healthy."
The problem is that there are people today who genuinely look at it like this, they think that healthcare is something that is easy and you just "take some pills" or some shit and don't realize not only the amoun of money and time time that goes into training people and not to mention that they're still people and make mistakes or are susceptible to greed and the such, a lot of people go to hospitals for one reason and die due to a mix up of medication or catch a disease due to negligence or basically sign up to be a test rat for medication by unscrupulous means.
>We have a new drug that is showing promising results, it's my professional opinion that you opt into this
Is basically saying you're a gullible lab rat.

Anyways, yes it's an extremely childish view but a lot of people are either midwits or just fucking retards who actually thinkk it is in fact that easy and that the only reason everyone's problems aren't solved is cause the ruling white people are just meanies :(
Also realistically, even if those beds that cure everything were sent to Earth, within a week the fucking cartels would hijack them and you'd literally have the EXACT SAME problem except now the criminals would be able to heal any wound or problem and would be the ones extorting the common people.
Not to mention they already have fee shit in 3rd world countries gifted to them by the first world and they still fuck that shit up.
It's a hilariously bad movie.
