Probably won't watch it, but I do want to make a comment on the "both sides" trend in lefty/centrist humor.
95 percent of the time I hear that a piece or media or a comedian makes fun of both sides, its always them taking shots at the most fringe and easiest targets on the left, and then just standard right wing positions. I assume because they believe the standard left wing positions.
Watching the RLM episode on this one was kinda cathartic. Watching Jay twist himself up trying not to be mad at the woke injection was hilarious. Usually he's one of the first to declare others manbabies for complaining about the ideology ruining beloved media, and now the shoe is on the other foot when it happens to a franchise he loves.
It really feels like you are living in clownworld when money must be spent and studies conducted to answer a question that a 12 year old boy could answer in a sentence, because we all have to pretend the obvious answer isn't reality to avoid offense.
Its because effectively mocking something to the point that the initial creator feels embarrassed to use it requires a sense of humor on the mocker's part. The left can't match this because of the eternal axiom: The left can't meme.
Flat Earthers, Young Earth Creationists and, before covid, anti-vaxxers, were like the easiest punching bag for anyone to gain "intellectual" cred with normies. No one will defend them and they seldom have a platform as large as their critics to respond if they even wanted to.
Damn, Firestarter and Spitfire were half of my teenage years. Oh well, Bongs gonna bong.
