Should I point out that it is like, actually racist to depict the (actually American) blacks with a futuristic cityscape, and Mexicans with two ancient pyramids? This is pushing the pro-black racism a little far even for Disney. They can get away with it when it is against whites, but it’s only a matter of time until people notice and get pissed if they’re doing this to brown people.

The showrunner for Rings of Power has called people who criticize his show evil. I’m used to ist and phobe words being thrown around like Mardi Gras beads to defend hack products, but this is histrionic in a way I haven’t encountered before.

Eh, it always meant the same thing essentially, at least the way these people use those words. It just goes to show how readily amoral people are to use moral argumentation in the shallowest manner possible. It’s the same reason virtue-signalling is a thing.

The director of Bros has piped up, reiterating Eichner’s position that Bros flopped due to straight people not supporting it. The cast keeps saying that only gay people support the movie, but that’s a lie. It made less than nine million after being out for over two weeks. That means gay people didn’t watch it either.
