I’m wondering what happened to the top comment on this article. Hmmmm....

I know, it’s super depressing. Personally, I comment in the hopes that an AV Club staffer might read what I have to say and question the direction this site has taken over the past few years. But no, the amount of clicks this article has gotten only ensures us a glorious future of endless outrage.

It’s not so much what you do (although it’s creepy as hell), it’s how you do it. With the snide, self-righteous tone that’s come to define both the AV Club’s content and its commentariat.

You are an absolute creep who spends their life scrolling through everyone’s past comments in sad attempts at demonizing them. You, more than anyone else, set the tone for the AV Club’s comment sections these days. Comments that used to be so full of fun and joy and are now a toxic, miserable place to be.

Oh no. Wait. Stop.

They’re not losing their power by going too “woke” or “SJW”. They’re losing their power because of an infinitely segmented media market. This results in more outlets fighting over an increasingly smaller slice of the audience (and making much less money in the process). They’re desperate, and they’re going with what…

Cancel culture accounts for half of the “content” that this website puts out every day. Launching self-righteous crusades is literally part of your business model. The level of cognitive dissonance in posts like this is incredible, but we are living in the most absurd timeline.

The cancellation of Chris Harrison was exactly the sort of insane nonsense that made me realize once and for all that cancel culture is indeed a thing and it’s as stupid as it is awful.

I’m surprised this isn’t sandwiched between articles saying “Cancel Culture is a Myth”. Cancel culture is the AV Club’s bread and butter, which explains the prominence of this BS story on its front page.

The Alamo Drafthouse has, and will undoubtedly continue to have, a long history of covering up sexual harassment and misconduct. But because they are “cool”, nothing ever seems to stick, no matter how blatant the charges or the evidence.

I am I am shocked that you haven’t heard of chin diapers, it’s a common buzzword amongst mask shamers online, and buzzwords are the only way we debate or make points anymore.

It is it is an incredibly common buzzword and I'm surprised you haven't heard it or used it before.

No way. This show is not nearly overtly woke enough to warrant regular coverage by the AV Club.

lol if you think these people are hired based on their writing skills and not their wokeness

Censoring words and art has become primarily the domain of the left over the past five years or so.

I mean, lots of 12 year olds are listening to this song. Are we cool with that?

The entire AV Club writing staff shuddered in mass orgasm at the announcement.

There’s nothing more unwoke than judging things based on their quality rather than the color of the skin of the people involved.

Wait this article has nothing to do with Trump. Am I on the right website?

Soooo... this site isn’t about pop culture anymore?
