Jay is fully signed up to the new improved morality which says actors shouldn't act outside their own idpol category. Couple of times I've tried to watch Half in the Bag recently and his first point of comparison for movies these days seems to be to the Bristol Stool Chart. Any western actor trying to play a character from a latitude south of their hometown basically gets labelled as blackface now. This is the kind of shite that a normie might pick up from his woke girlfriend and regurgitate to mockery from his mates, which shows that there's no sanity in their studio. Zero percent redpill index, agreed.
They've said a lot of shit in the past that "should" get them cancelled, but the fact that it doesn't happen at all is proof enough of their politics. Plus, you know if it happened (ie: Rich's joke in uh... Hands of Steel? About the 'Tranny Tracker 5000') they'd weep and cry and apologize and probably have a bunch of tranny guest regulars on the show after that.
The focus on "technical quality" over meaningful and genuine stories is probably where I break away from their mentality too. I'm fine with something being crude if it still has some heart to it. This is probably one reason they enjoy "so bad it's good" movies, they still have that desire to do good.
I believe they said something to the extent that a movie can't be "so bad it's good" if it's clear the creators weren't trying. Even if the badness is batshit insane there has to be a certain sincerity to it, otherwise it's unwatchable crap.
