What I’ve noticed about these alt Twitters is the worse elements rush to join, but don’t leave Twitter. They’re just adding another platform to be boring on. Somehow even Trump has more self control to stay on his own platform.

The reason for that is that once a show does well, it's no longer woke and it's "doing it right"

Look at how Mario was "woke" but now it's an "Apolitical masterpiece"

TLM's racist narrative took root in Asia and not even the good results in the US, Europe and Latam helped it bounce back.

For The Marvels it's all hands on deck to push the narrative, and no matter how well it does it will be called a failure just like the first was. Time will tell if they manage to get it to work again. Hopefully not.

Holy shit this is great stuff.

Why does he care that a film is called a failure if he is pretty confident that it is not?

You've made the mistake of thinking he cares about the film.

I think Secret Invasion is currently the least watched MCU show.

This is false.

It had 1M viewers on Smart TVs that have the SambaTV app enabled while other shows like Wandavision and Mandalorian averaged 1.5 M.

The metric ignores watchers in any other devices.

And even then, the lowest under that metric is Ms. Marvel at 775k, with the detail of it also being the most popular Marvel show with younger gens and minorities.

I Am A Bird

I'm too fucking poor to go to the movies damnit!

[benji]

And fucking centrists and moderates like Joe Biden won't even provide anti-fascist subsidies so the marginalized can contribute to the MCU's achievements, I'm so fucking tired.

I'm so tired.

i can assure you that people don't become transphobes because trans communists are mean to them online. that's not a thing in any way that matters.

Isn't that such a nice and comfortable thought? You can be as much of a piece of shit as you want to be and carry absolutely zero responsibility. Mind you, I've never seen them quote a study or anything like that, just their strong believe that when they push people away those people always were bad.

i will treat people how they deserve to be treated, and i don't think people who believe i'm a pedophile or that my healthcare is mutilation deserve to be treated well. sorry not sorry.

Like, Ana Kasparin has never said anything like that, so why are you being a totally unreasonable piece of shit about it? In her eyes that must look pretty mental, like this movement is some sort of cult that doesn't allow the most minor of deviations from the message

Its funny that that thread is literally full of replies going "Why is THIS the issue where lots of left leaning people suddenly turn into alt-right fash ???" posts when if you make a - to most people - reasonable question of ideology like "Shouldn't this be left to medical professionals not twitch streaming twitter trolls selling 'don't tell your parents!' DIY hormone bundles of random over the counter medications for profit over the internet?" to get hit with a brigaded sub-retweeted collection of "FUCKING KILL YOURSELF YOU TOTAL PIECE OF SHIT" responses

"Being an asshole doesn't drive people away, but also I will act like an asshole as it has no repercussions"
Nice logic

[Eric Cartman]

Reminds me of the anti-Xbone days where it requiring some Internet connection was a cardinal sin, because some remote areas and (checks notes) deployed military couldn't use it, despite literally all of them being constantly online.

The internet isn't a pipe direct to MS HQ, and even if it was that still fucking goes down occasionally.

A piece of expensive hardware you literally cannot use for its intended purpose if it cant connect to its auth servers is fucking shit.
If it was such a great fucking idea someone else would have fulfilled its promise by now.
They haven't, because because it was a big win for MS and a big L for anyone who would have bought into it, and if MS really wanted an always online data harvesting ad streaming platform, they should have drastically subsidised it for all the money they'd be making off you on the back end.

I think it's funny how they don't think it's weird they apparently don't disagree on more issues.

Article sleeping on The Marvels. Captain Marvel grossed over a billion. If The Marvel's review well it'll probably do very good.

There's a very very clear attitude from the internet towards this film, like it's failure is all but guaranteed. But I just can't imagine why that is...

 

This is of course 100% unlike how on era Joker was going to create an incelmageddon of spree shootings

Well, hold on, these aren't my rules but maybe we shouldn't reject Corinne's reasoning out of hand...

The right of voting on the state's government and legislation is to be enjoyed by the citizen of the state alone. We demand therefore that all official appointments, of whatever kind, shall be granted to citizens of the state alone. We oppose the corrupting custom of parliament of filling posts merely with a view to party considerations, and without reference to character or capability.
We demand that the state be charged first with providing the opportunity for a livelihood and way of life for the citizens.
...
The activity of individual may not clash with the interests of the whole, but must proceed within the framework of the whole for the benefit for the general good. We demand therefore:
Abolition of unearned (work and labour) incomes. Breaking of debt (interest)-slavery.
In consideration of the monstrous sacrifice of life and property that each war demands of the people, personal enrichment due to a war must be regarded as a crime against the nation. Therefore, we demand ruthless confiscation of all war profits.
We demand nationalization of all businesses which have been up to the present formed into companies (trusts).
We demand that the profits from wholesale trade shall be shared out.
We demand an expansion on a large scale of old age welfare.
We demand the creation of a healthy middle class and its conservation, immediate communalization of the great warehouses and their being leased at low cost to small firms, the utmost consideration of all small firms in contracts with the State, county or municipality.
We demand a land reform suitable to our needs, provision of a law for the free expropriation of land for the purposes of public utility, abolition of taxes on land and prevention of all speculation in land.
We demand struggle without consideration against those whose activity is injurious to the general interest. Common national criminals, usurers, profiteers and so forth are to be punished with death, without consideration of confession or race.
...
The state is to be responsible for a fundamental reconstruction of our whole national education program, to enable every capable and industrious German to obtain higher education and subsequently introduction into leading positions. The plans of instruction of all educational institutions are to conform with the experiences of practical life. The comprehension of the concept of the state must be striven for by the school [Staatsbürgerkunde] as early as the beginning of understanding. We demand the education at the expense of the state of outstanding intellectually gifted children of poor parents without consideration of position or profession.
The state is to care for the elevating national health by protecting the mother and child, by outlawing child-labor, by the encouragement of physical fitness, by means of the legal establishment of a gymnastic and sport obligation, by the utmost support of all organizations concerned with the physical instruction of the young.
...
We demand legal opposition to known lies and their promulgation through the press.
...
Publications which are counter to the general good are to be forbidden. We demand legal prosecution of artistic and literary forms which exert a destructive influence on our national life and the closure of organizations opposing the above made demands.

Someone calls ree out on their performative bullshit -

It's fairly clear that people en mass don't really care, or don't care enough to change their habits. I guess in a couple of months when it becomes evident that the Threads team can't deal with the fascism/racism/sexism/transphobia/etc, folks will be on the lookout for justifications as to why they were a part of this massive sign up event to shift any blame, as if the direction these things take isn't fairly clear cut already.

Kyuuji gets all pissy about it -

What's there just justify lol?

Like seriously. If it goes to shit it goes to shit and we dip. I'm not sure why anyone needs to justify checking it out to anyone, off the back of what twitter's become and how valuable social media can be to certain communities. It's not on me that we can only choose between a handful of dickheads and I certainly don't have said communities on a leash so as to direct them wholesale to whichever platform is deemed acceptable by you or anyone else.

are you aware of just how many forums still exist out there? it barely takes any searching to turn up dozens, and many of them aren't even small and irrelevant

if you want to talk about shit with randos you have thousands of options, and think about why you write off those other options

I do but only because I live near a park and mostly in spring and summer. I live in a big city, so it’s nice to have some cues of nature.

It’s such a relaxing sound.
