sounds like a subject for the poli board.
Nope. You’re in favor of silencing criticism and discussion because you don’t like to be exposed. It’s easier for you to label and ostracize differing opinions.
Poliboard people are nutjobs whose opinions are invalid, we aren’t really injecting politics into every production. Even when we tell you we’re doing it—don’t believe your eyes. We “above the fray” movie board posters are poor victims.

who do you think on this board is producing movies/tv shows?
noone that does is even reading this board.
If the neighbors dog shits in your yard do you start yelling at your dog?
I'm just trying to watch a fricking tv show, I don't wanna have the tv show/movie push it's politics on me, and I certainly don't wanna hear some random idiot on the internets politics when I'm trying to discuss the show.

I’m shocked there are 14 pages of a thread where Chicken simply said keep politics off the M/TV board…
And it’s the resident poli board and poliretards complaining and not the people who actually want to discuss movies. Shocked, I tell you. Shocked

You already post on the PT board. Why would it be so hard to post on that board when you want to bitch about how someone associated with a production made a comment you disagrees with on some internet "news" site?
I want to talk about how Ivan Ooze is an underrated villain with the Power Rangers. What i don't want is the thread to go off the rails because someone post that the actor who played Ivan Ooze once said an in interview about how he feels his character was partially inspired by Ronald Regan. Because that fact has zero effect on my ability to enjoy the character or the Power Rangers movie and never even entered my 8 year old brain at the time. But now I'm having to slog through 2 pages of people going back and forth about Regan's economic policies instead of talking about Americans dubbing over an old Japanese show in bright costumes.

Yep. Proximo admitted it above without realizing it. They are desperate for our negative attention. Like children. Now they are throwing tantrums because they’re being directed to discuss politics in the proper forum that Chicken has provided them.
Reason and logic won’t sway them.

How are you censored because you need to pick and choose where discussions belong? Topics or boards? Oh noes, the oppressed PT'ers and censorship. You're the victims, little peeps. All the crybaby PT'ers truly showing why this board needed a fricking cleanup.
Politics are part of art. Art has been used for hundreds of years to express opinions and present a message. As MTV are expressions of art, we should be able to discuss the underlying messages and their merits or lack thereof as MTV fans, not as political commentators. The MTV board is the correct place to discuss this, and if it gets out of control it should be moderated instead of just banned by rule

That only applies to some of the people upset here. Some of these discussions are pretty much just politics, and those should be on PT. But when it’s directly related to the show or movie, it should be allowed

Next we’re not gonna be allowed to discuss the restaurants on the Food and drink board, only the food they make. Or LSU fans can’t go on the MSB because LSU has tRant. Or we can’t discuss stocks on the money board, only exchange of currency

Why in the world do LSU fans need to start LSU threads on MSB? I could see the SEC rant because at least that somewhat makes sense, but not the MSB.
And I hope no one goes on the Food board and starts bashing the restaurant because a waiter posted on Facebook that they voted Biden.

Ain’t no “kinda” about it. It’s completely unhinged.
Wanting politics off of M/TV is wanting to make sure it doesn’t devolve into PoliBoard 2.0. If the political discourse here was capable of remaining relevant to the subject I doubt Chicken would have bothered making this thread.

The “keep politics out of movies” crowd all of a sudden finds politics to be a core piece of art and movies that cannot be removed or ignored
Posted on 7/27/24 at 12:32 pm to skrayper
The people opposing this already post there. But they know here they have a captive audience they can spout their garbage at even if they don't want it see it.
And again, it's not like people who bring politics into it are trying to have an actual discussion. They are just posting buzzwords then acting like they just owned everyone. They don't want to talk about the actual movie or TV show, they just want everyone to hear how much they hate the people who worked on the project.

There are so many broad terms here... you know it's not that simple. Don't be obtuse.

You damn wel know Kaiju has been tempted to do just that.

PT has the exact same problem as the SECr: too many signed up just to post on those boards and only those boards. It's okay as an isolation chamber, but for long-term posters who simply want to talk about things, it's useless now.

Assuming (based on nothing but his presence on this board) he lives in the greater Baton Rouge area, I don't think there's enough area-specific restaurant content on YouTube to sustain him.
