Out of sheer morbid curiosity, as an autist and a writer, things like this fascinate me. I like to know what not to do and how to avoid it where possible. That doesn't mean it's never happened to me, though, there's been a few times.
Now, I'm not talking about like gay characters in a show and you're not into that thing. I'm mean the media equivalent of receiving a great blowjob and then suddenly you get a finger in your ass that wasn't part of the original offer.
Mine is the show, The Magicians. I knew it would be lefty-leaning because that's just how the books were and the cast was diverse in hollywood's favorite way. That said, I was in for some trash and the fastforward button was for the parts I didn't like. 3 seasons in, I like the dumb plots and the sudden twists, then, the show decided to pull some stupid fucking meta and lecture the audience: Rasheed starts to lecture us that you're a racist, sexist, bigot if you don't watch/read something because the main character isn't white and male. After that, I completely skip a couple episodes, because fuck that bullshit. I calmed down and the first episode I watch, they killed the main fucking character, a white male. Series goes on, I do not. The whole fucking scene was the producers trying to guilt the audience into not rage-quitting the show by calling us bigots. After that, I decided I was never watching another syfyllis network show again, or one with a racially diverse cast, especially no Rasheeds.
I don't do well with specifics but I'm kind of torn on this issue. It seems now EVERYTHING I watch has some little current year thing in it. Even if the overall presentation is good (Take Puss in Boots 2 for example), there will be one or two little things that make me roll my eyes because it is pandering (it seems).
But then looking at it in a meta sort of way, wasn't that the problem with SJWs back in the day? Now everything is pozzed, everything is globohomo and you have to point it all out? That doesn't seem to me to be the way I want to live my life.
I have, for the large part, withdrawn from current day productions.
It's not that we have to point it all out, it's looking for something that isn't pozzed to hell and back. We aren't looking for things that aren't there and making mountains out of antbite boobies. The culture shift was very real, and was very clearly delineated to exclude us.
