Isn’t the OP one of the guys that entertain the “Orcs are black” shit? 

I think is way worse when someone with actual media literacy disingenuously throw it under the bus just to fit in a group.

I think the real reason they hate capitalism so much is that it's self-correcting and eventually reveals that the average person won't put up with their shit forever

eventually Disney will have to stop throwing money into a pit and make some movies that are actually appealing and don't pander to specific loud activist groups

that's why communism can't come soon enough, so that they would be permitted to make ideologically pure content forever without fear of losing funding

Debating whether or not to fact check. Once upon a time in a Hollywood boardroom some time ago, George Lucas praised the Soviet film industry for producing works that aren’t beholden to the hellish restraints of capitalism. Then at some point he decided he likes living in luxury and made characters to sell toys. Later on he sold it to Disney, who he described as white slavers, and who rapidly devalued the brand in a few short years.

I don’t what the point or lesson here is. Sell out while you can?

Self fact check: he said that in the same interview as the white slavers comment. Not that long ago, but it was 2015 and both comments received backlash. You can date it as he’s interviewed by Charlie Rose before his like 35+ sexual harassment allegations during that metoo era. Didn’t know he was putting up those numbers. This’ll make rewatching Batman v Superman Dawn of Justice Ultimate Edition slightly awkward.

And yet, I bet you that a communist driven film industry will still have way less and diverse films than with capitalism. And even if the government institution that gives grants is actually running well and competent without nepotism, they would probably have an excellent filmography but not the type of films that Era actually loves.

In any case, I doubt ERA has given any thought of why they hate capitalism outside twitter and YouTuber influencers. Is just the “cool and subversive” thing to do, like when people printed Che Guevara t shirts.

I am not one to normally call out people in this manner but I see this rather habitually(and was on the receiving end of pile ons when the site was much more Musk-Stan favorable) and think this sort of obviously flawed red herring, with this background context, borders on bad faith engagement.

Mengy wrote:I am not a Musk stan, I am a supporter of Tesla. There is a difference. I've spoken out against Musk on Era many, MANY times, so anyone stating I am a "Musk stan" is spreading their own warped opinions about me. Please don't do that.

Just a glance at the previous page and I see some attempting to reason with Punk stans. Don't bother. It's the same thing as Trumpers. They know who Punk is. They know what he's done wrong. They know his firing was totally justified and you need to be an extreme POS to have that happen in the wrassling business. Heck, he's shown his ass on camera multiple times. They simply don't care and will go through any mental gymnastics necessary to convince themselves that they're right and Punk's persecution complex is justified — and just like Trumpers they'll revel in your "tears."

Speaking of which, I hope Punk has fun wearing his pro-choice shirts in Texas or supporting trans rights in Saudi now that he went crawling back to the company that funds conservative election campaigns. I was warned that he was a fake ally back when I was giving him props. I was wrong and they were right. He's an ally until his self interests get in the way.

I mean, a lot of this culture wars BS is the result of Atheism+ collapsing. Including the trans humanist spin.

I remember the rise of the new atheist stuff, felt like it was led by Dawkins or Dawkins worship, which seems to have a mirror in Jordan Peterson, though the death of the hero worship happens much faster these days

why did it collapse? feels like there wasn't any particular incident or infighting or anything, was it literally just that it was cringe?

was it that it was devoted to "facts and logic" which became "facts don't care about your feelings" and debatebros and all that is inherently oppositional to trans, so it died out due to the rise of that culture?

Hamas attacking and then predictably inviting Gaza to be pulverized is a good thing in Nepenthe's book because she suffers none of the consequences and gets to reap all of the rewards of "I told you so's" and feeling the euphoria of progressive haughtiness.  It would take an act of god for Nepenthe to abandon her cum fanfics and go volunteer at Oxfam.

I think over time people earned sufficient enough pushback from groups that have a distaste for pseudo-intellectual redditors that preach about religion and epistemology.  You can kind of see it on social media, whenever someone says something about praying or whatever, and an atheist responds with something along the lines of "lol magic sky man" everyone just calls them a neckbeard faggot.  Kind of refreshing after all these years.  You also see the same kind of pushback with the hedonistic elements of the internet, pejoratives that describe "coomers" and "consoomers", etc.  There seems to be a blasé attitude that has set in after years of constant high speed information and stimulation with the internet, people not necessarily finding meaning, but longer finding it necessary to deride other peoples' search for it? (see: resurgence of strong tradition and religiosity in zoomers who adopt far-right politics)  Don't know.

  Islam has always been in the progressive stack, but now more than ever.  The religion is bold-facedly ridiculous and violent, it's all there in the texts -- and yet you can't even criticize quoted lines from the Hadith without being called fake government words like "Islamophobic", whatever the fuck that means.  The sad shit is, if people knew anything about history, they'd see that this sort of brutality is not an indictment on certain races or ethnicities - this brutality is universal.  They'd have no problem criticizing Islam because they'd know "white" brutality from Christians in Europe hanging people upside down for adultery, or the ancient Greeks before that with their brazen bulls.  It's an absurd tacit way to say, "I don't want to learn from history".  And it's easy to say that because the consequences of a shitty religion like Islam only affects the people who are subject to it, not these progressive retards like Nepenthe.
