One my cousins used to always give me the usual lines regarding the infestation of entertainment like "it's always been political/woke", "you are uncomfortable with female leads", "you are just mad because white males aren't in everything" along with all the other stuff everyone on here has heard.
The other day he called me after trying to watch the Obi Wan show on Disney plus and apologized to me because he said he couldn't unsee or unhear everything I had been saying. His preteen kids got bored with the show after one episode and he tried to keep watching but he said that it was blatantly obvious there was an agenda and that maybe I wasn't crazy when I said there was an obsession with diversity and less white representation.
I had already cancelled my disney plus when Obi Wan premiered but when someone told me that it was basically a Leia and Reva show I wasn't surprised. I remember hearing that it was originally supposed to be a show focusing on Obi Wan and Luke but the female showrunner said she wanted to include Leia (showing how clueless she was about the lore). It really made me sad to see so called star wars fans defending it by saying "well, it never said Leia had never met Obi Wan or him and Vader hadn't fought multiple times".
There is an EU book called Kenobi that is good. It is Obi Wan watching over Luke from a distance and getting reluctantly sucked into a skirmish between the Tusken Raiders and the local farmers. At least that author understood the lore he had to work with. Honestly Obi Wan could've been a massive hit.
It still boggles my mind how people can think nothing is left wing. Unless they think they are normal and those who disagree are lunatics
it's the same thing that it always is: Social Democracy is Right-wing, Democratic Socialism is Centrist, and REAL Leftism has never been tried.
This is Left & Right are non-objective, referential positions.
Years and years of brain washing can do that. Before gamergate I remember reading an article about sarkeesian being "harassed" and just didn't think much about it. Same with real politics I just ignored it all, even voted very left wing all those years ago. When you get the redpill stuff just falls into places and you can tell you lived a lie.
I actually felt sympathy when I heard about female gamers being harassed. Then I got sick of every gaming publication constantly talking about women in gaming as if they didn’t know certain games tended to appeal to men. As for the “harassment”, I’m sure most of it is just standard trash talk. By their definition the trash talk between me and my buddies when we played FIFA and Madden could be seen as “harassment”
A couple reasons I think:
That said, I still don't know how pants on the head retarded you have to be to claim colleges are right wing.
I think I made some headway just explaining my perspectives, but I still got this gem:
