As opposed to the good ol’ days when conservatives never, ever accused Hollywood of producing left wing propaganda.
Really is entertaining to watch them crown themselves as revolutionary individualists as they do all the exact same things we were taught is what the dumbest portion of the country has been doing non stop since 1930.
The new hip trend of accusing Hollywood of being filled with communists. If they could read just a little bit of history, my brain would stop summoning blood clots.
“They should call it Wokewood”
“How about HollyWOKE”
“Ooh, yeah, that’s even better”
These are the dullest people on the planet.
I was going to say that if these were my reply guys I kinda get why Elon thinks he’s a genius.
new version of American History X but reverse the races
Wouldn’t chuds moan like crazy if you had a movie where a black guy or something crush a white guy’s skull on the curb?
This is indistinguishable from us doing bits trying to sound like chuds. They actually talk like that
No wonder why the lemmy libs get so confused. We’re the sarcastic Australians of the left when it comes to this shit it seems
Where any of the Noms really that “woke” even by neurotic Chud standards? Unless we’ve gotten to the point that they’re doing BLATANT Holocaust apologia.
One of my de-
-ing moments was when I realized how many white supremacists like American History X. Before Facebook really locked down privacy to everyone but themselves, you could view lists of people who Liked things, and the venn diagram of folks who Liked American History X and the literal Stormfront website was damn near a circle. Really forced me to rethink satire and The Daily Show and shit that gave platforms to the ideas of the right.Wouldn’t be the first time that only the fascists seem capable of articulating an economic message that resonates with the vox populi.
The Daily Show and shit that gave platforms to the ideas of the right.
There’s a certain value in a show that actually lets you know these people exist, and that its not just the NicePoliteRepublican crowd in the empty suits issuing the “Why can’t you just be reasonable? Socialism doesn’t work!” coin-operated responses. I don’t really object to Stewart playing pool with Lindsey Graham or platforming Perez Musharraf, because these are people you ultimately need to know fucking exist, even if it takes some D-list comedy dork to introduce them.
Stewart gets slack because he was the last man on television who was allowed to talk about a national anti-war movement, even as folks like Donahue and the Dixie Chicks were getting axed left and right. He was a squishy liberal with a South Park-esque juvenile homophobia, but he managed to be the most left-leaning voice in a media awash in reactionary psychosis.
But once you started to get a more active leftist media in the post-Occupy Wall Street era, what were you supposed to do with Stewart? He rapidly became a relic of his own era. Dude should have retired back in 2012, rather than getting resurrected in 2023.
Quisling, famously woke historical figure.
American history X, a movie about Neo nazi gangs, a thing that really exists and the racial terror the commit. A real thing that happens. Reverse the races and it’s just weird wish fulfillment for mayos who are horny in the worst ways.
