Well we all have our hobbies. Watching you guys get all worked up over your culture war like anything you say or do is gonna make one iota of a difference is pretty amusing.

You're just yelling into the ether and It doesn't even seem like you realize that none of it matters.

Just for posterity sake given the amount of posts you have and your join date in 2022 and the amount of posts I have since mine in 2012. The comparative post per year respectively are 4172 for you and 1691 for me. But yeah you totally don’t care

Yeah i enjoy posting on here. It's pretty fun. Doesnt have anything to do with my point tho. U can turn off your TV and quit following a few people on Twitter and you would've already won your culture war.

They can't force you to watch or follow the acolyte, it's a choice you make on your own and yet the show and beliefs of the creators make you mad.

If watching football games pissed me off I would have stopped watching them a long time ago.

As I already outlined in the second massive thread this week I was OP of a few days back about Snow White now being the most downvoted movie trailer in YouTube history, not only Disney, movies, the culture war is over. We already won. Now is the time for parading your women in front of us while you wail and grind your teeth in objection which is the last death rattle of a time history will remember as people having mass psychosis. All that remains is simply the captains dividing up the loot from our many successful raids to our dutiful soldiers.

Maybe that's how things would work in a fantasy novel, but in the real world there will still be shows created that you like and those that you don't like and the world will keep spinning and you'll find something else to be angry about.

You’re clearly reinforcing my point about you being a low IQ moron. Just because we have recently definitely routed your remaining forces in the great culture war doesn’t imply things will overnight become better or more tolerable. You’re clearly not getting the whole metaphor about dividing the loot and all that so I’ll spell it out for you.

Hollywood and culture/politics/society at large turns very slowly then all at once abruptly seemingly out of no where if you aren’t paying attention. The post modern freaks who fought very hard for cultural capital and now have lost it since they were one trick ponies and the trick has lost effectiveness aren’t just going to give up. But all efforts will be in vain because it’s come to a tipping point. Far more than enough people no longer fear your labels or smears or losing their jobs and are openly and loudly speaking up and making it known what they think about it. Both in the public sector and in the economy. Private equity and venture capital has funded these money sink diversity vanity projects for a decade but when the economy sucks that money isn’t going there any longer and corpos have to return to the free market to make their money. To your point about shows we won’t see permanent change for 2-3 years since they have to shite out the last remnants that are in the can or green lit but it will come. And you’ll cry.

Are they gonna take away college football or something? What are they possibly gonna cancel that could make me care? I'm sure I'll still be able to find something to watch on Netflix when I get bored.

Ah this is the point in the cycle where you pretend you never even cared about any of it and like totally aren’t even mad the side you clearly and openly supported has lost. Progressives are so repetitive in the way they all act down to the individual your actions and beliefs can be accurately predicted with precise detail based on the current thing.

Probably right. In that case I should likely disengage. I just can’t help myself taking victory laps.

I was never under the impression that they were making any TV shows for me. You would think they would've got the hint after I avoided the past 40 seasons of American idol and America's got talent and real housewives that they could quit making them though.

I'm perfectly capable of finding shows that I enjoy, I don't need any shows catered to me and I certainly don't need every show to be.

So I do want to ask, because honestly I can't remember if it was answered in the other thread (if it was I apologize), but if the cultural war was won by the right wing than what is going to change with media?

Like I get that they won't cram their message down our throats, they won't be woke. But how is that being enforced? Kathleen Kennedy is still in charge of Star Wars. Bob Igor is still running Disney.

Hopefully we stop seeing grifters getting projects approved by promising diversity rather than actually being talented. But unless those at the top who keep getting fooled by the grifters change, I don't see some massive landscape change

As I’ve said a few times the cultural war and it’s outcomes isn’t simply going to effect entertainment it will have repercussions that ripple out though all of society.

But to answer your question as best as I am able, as again we discussed my job the other day I’m someone very much in the position to realize the shift has happened but I’m not an entertainment executive or anything. As I see it it will be at minimum a 2-3 year process that will result in entertainment reverting to a pre tumbler infiltration era. So think maybe pre 2015ish. Shows and movies will come along, some will good, hell some will maybe even be great if what I say later takes full effect, and some will be shite. But the days of openly pandering, diversity quotas, marketing based on how black or gay or whatever your show is also rage bait marketing to piss off fans will no longer happen. Shows will continue to have gay people. Black people. Brown people. And no one will care just like we didn’t care before all of this. We won’t however have any ridiculous things like a black Ann Boleyn or fantasy shows with cold clearly Northern Europe inspiration have the diversity of modern day LA.

For all of this to happen the old guard will have to be washed away, those that are the true believers at least. There are some who simply bought into to the stupid idea representing people would bring more profits. Many of these companies ESPECIALLY companies like Disney will need years to fully clean out all of the untalented activists they hired after the ascent of our great Saint Floyd to the heavens and bring back in some talented people and bring back their old pipeline of cal arts top art graduates to Disney


My two cents anyway

Its a flawed concept because we now have more content to choose from than any time in history.

You can go on tiktok and endlessly stream anti-woke content or woke content if that's what you want to do.

Watching a Kathleen Kennedy interview about her TV show and then getting upset over it is like turning on a Tupac album and being mad he is talking about different shite than Merle Haggard.

There are thousands of shows/albums to choose from and you don't have time to watch em all anyway.
