Imagine actively making your product worse just so you can virtue signal afterwards...

She does not see it as worse. Feminist writers see it as improving the material, they see the original material as bad so she wants to fix it.

The problem is that the fans of the games and of the books do not want it "fix". Feminist idea of fixing is to put their own fan-fic in to the material, the truth is they are not writers, they have little in term of skill and do not understand that what they want to "fix" is not broken, they simply can not understand that. They can't understand that is fine to have a male lead that is courageous and stoic and fans expect and want that. Their view is way to clouded by hatred to see things proper.

Feminists also believe themselves smarter and more virtuous then everyone so what ever they "fix" is good by definition, kind of like a religion.

I honestly think they want it to be a great success. This way they get validated for their opinions. They want to hurt men but only men that are not feminists, they like the soy drinking simps.

hahah no they do not. they see them as less than trash: a failed man.

feminists want men to suffer and be enslaved. they are fine hurting even other women as long as men are punished as well. it's all resentment. they hate what you enjoy. they want to destroy it and watch you suffer.

Feminists are primarily fueled by envy, wrath, and pride, in that order. They want to seize what they perceive men have for themselves, and they do so by destroying the source with resentful spite so it can lay sole claim. They'll never admit to their ruinous desire, nor will they accept any blame for ruining that which they covet. Instead they rationalize based on what their echo chambers deem acceptable. They're gluttons for attention and fawning, but nothing satiates them as everything about them is either fake and/or toxic.

Oh, feminists absolutely scorn simps, as they should. When someone puts you on a pedestal, you can't help but look down on them. Simps are pathetic failures at being men, and thus are undesirable. Simps, however oleaginously degenerate, are a smidgen more worthy of respect than male feminists. A male feminist is somebody who listens to a vain cunt shrieking that all men are rapists, while never once objecting.

When you make something you typically don’t take blame for it if it’s good. You take credit. Blame is for disasters.

I mean the writing staff was a pile of shit from day 1. Even had a writer who claimed lack of diversity in Black Panther was a good thing while saying that forced diversity The Witcher “wasn’t comparable”. He was of course black.

Eh, the second season was weak (as was the start of the first, for that matter) but it wasn't even bad enough to go looking around for someone to blame.

The rule of the 3 red flags that i follow to know if something is going to be woke trash.

Company; Netflix [first red flag]

Casting; Any race/gender swap from original source (second red flag)

Director and Writers; personal social media is woke af (third red flag)

Never fails.

Lol, I remember when taking credit for this sort of thing came from a poorly recorded video someone shot in a cave.

And the Quartering is having ALOT of fun with it, he made a video about going on a date with her after she stayed in his comment section too long.

Is the second season bad? I was planning to rewatch season 1 first, but got too fatigued from the first episode. I forgot how much fucking plot they forced in one episode. How a normie with no prior knowledge of the Witcher lore is expected to follow along is beyond me.

Is the second season bad?

The first episode is considered good because it's telling one of the actual short stories from the books.

Everything else is shitty Twitter/Tumblr tier fanfic from the showrunners who have since flat out admitted they made the show for zero attention span, tik-tok obsessed watchers who need action every episode. So CW style drama was injected into every episode so that it was "exciting" seeing as how the second book is primarily how early GoT would have been regarding character developments.

Instead they completely fucked over several of the main characters by giving them story arcs from others, mostly all of them going to Yen because Hissenrich is using Yen as a self insert and when actually looking at the books Yen doesn't actually show up that much, so other characters suffer from a lack of doing anything while Yen ends up with multiple, conflicting arcs going on that either make no fucking sense from the book lore or just fly in the face of how the character is meant to behave in regards to BOTH the book lore and previous season settings.

I actually enjoyed the second season, but can agree the SJWness is weird. Why are random cultures there for no apparent reason? This character is black? Why?

This character is Asian?

Why on earth is this character Caribbean?! I swear some of it falls into magical black character.

However, someone must have tamed the SJW because Ciri has to earn anything, and even then she's nothing compared to others around her. She has power, but no control of it. The women are important, but not everything. Vesmir had the most emotion and character throughout.

TheGamer Lead Features Editor Cian Maher, who stated that her “dunking on the quartering is honestly the best gift 2022 could have possibly given us,”

she sexually assaulted him after a night of two zinfandels and a coors light. Jeremy has never recovered from this.

I hate that they feel they need to take an established franchise and then put their own woke spin on it.

Why do they not make their own, or get one of the recent awarded books and do those.

I have no problem in them taking those SJW infested works and make a series. Is this constant assault on men-oriented franchises that bothers me to no end.

Why do they not make their own

They can't, everything they make fails miserably. They can only subvert and destroy. Which is their goal anyway, creation would just take energy away from subversion and probably wouldn't work anyway.

Why do they not make their own

Because they want an existing audience.

Either it does well and they continue to get praise because they expect things to be that way because "attractive woman" [until the wall hits] or they fail and then play the victim card that anyone who disliked it was a white male - because nobody else is allowed to dislike it and if such voices arise they get called various equivalents of "Uncle Toms".

They're not interested in creating art, they want to erase blasphemy and punish heresy and rewrite history.

What's the point in adopting something that's not problematic? That's already fixed. Once it's fixed it's not interesting anymore.

Fixing the old fills them with self-righteous energy, it fuels their hatred knowing that they're destroying something precious, as true sadists that's a source of pleasure.

They get a sense of justice as they're reclaiming a source of envy.

They get to bask in their achievment among peer and recieve adolation to scratch their narcissistic urges.

They get a short reprieve from their intense and costant self-pity which casts them into a spiral of manic euphoria.

When you don't engage with art to learn or grow, you only engage with it to validate your ideology - remember they are already perfect queens and their every life choice, vice, and personality flaw is validated by the ideology and beautiful.

It's perfect.

And it's all they've got. They are otherwise unable to feel joy, wonder, a sense of adventure, they have no immagination, no wanderlust, it's been years since they laughed. Art is useless to them.

Except as fuel for their wrath. They're wretched.

The only happiness for them is when an enemy meets misfortune, then they cheer hysterically like hyenas and for a moment feel releief.

It's not a way to live. They're deeply unhappy. It's why they spend all their time either on twitter/reddit or IRL enraged and wallowing in hatered.
