I'm black and I'm am sick of over representation/diversity for the sake of it. When I first started hearing this push for diversity, I thought they meant hiring the best person available, but it is clear that it means less or no white people. I live in a majority white country, so there is no reason to whine if I see white people in entertainment. That should be pretty clear cut.
Also, another problem is that it has reached a point where I am hesitant to watch anything with a female, black, or hispanic cast made in the last few years because most likely it will be yet another feminist lecture, lecture about race, or an immigration lecture where there is only one point of view.
Add in the fact that they constantly push these movies or tv shows and we are supposed to love every lazy reboot.
One of the reasons I pretty much don't watch or read anything past 2014.
Honestly I think a female or minority author/director who cared about writing good stories would have a very hard time in Hollywood if they didn't push the usual left wing talking points.
Look how Jordan Peele, Ava Duvernay, etc. are treated as if they are Hitchcock on steroids.
A part of it is self-fulfilling prophecy. Not how it started, but eventually they added so much social justice worrier crap that they lost normal people, so now most of the people on netflix and that watch sitcoms are SJWs so if they don't make it over the top they'll lose their remaining audience.
Nobody that canceled Netflix because of "Cuties" or whatever else is coming back ever. Basically real-life bridge burning.
Cuties was the last straw for me with Netflix. When I cancelled I mentioned how they couldn’t shut up about race narratives.
What makes no sense is that as someone who go grew up in 80s/90s I remember shows like Cosby Show, Family Matters, and Fresh Prince that everyone enjoyed. Just like you said now a show with a largely black cast will be sjw nonsense.
You know, I never drew a hard line over any of the streaming platforms -- but I did naturally drift away from Netflix probably over the past 2 years. Yes, their politics suck. But so does their entire platform lmao their content has become garbage and the actual app itself blows. Who was the fucking brainiac that decided "let's make every title auto play a preview that you can't turn off without visiting the website" and also made it so that it's pretty much impossible to only view selections that are in your spoken language.
But God there sure is a lot of the trash you're mentioning also. It doesn't even offend me though honestly- it's so transparent that I can't help but laugh at this point.

Must be the same blue-hair who made YouTube's app.
