Writer Who Makes Living Writing Outrage Articles Outraged At Artist Saying Outrage Has Become Commodity

If a movie incites people to violence that’s entirely society’s those peoples’ fault and not the fault of the movie.

Yeah, except... the “outrage” is fake here. I have spoken to exactly zero people who have an opinion on this issue. If the survivors of the mass shooting in Aurora have an opinion on another Joker movie in that theater, that’s completely their business. Let’s not pretend there’s a mass uproar over this, though,…

“...what’s outstanding to me in this discourse in this movie is how easily the far left can sound like the far right when it suits their agenda.”

We also have the Rambo movie with him killing Mexicans in the movies right now, but its ok since they are drug dealers.

Exactly, these people don’t bitch about torture porn movies and torture happens every day somewhere in the world.

“Phillips argued that “outrage” has become “a commodity,”

“Also, everyone should know better than to try and argue that the left and the right are both equally bad in 2019"

Yeah and he’s 110% right. This is a weird narrative that is being pushed by people like Sam Barsanti so they can pump out a few more articles with the word “incel” in the headline and wonder about how damaging this movie is going to be while pointing out how dangerous white people are.

Tiger and Bunny is a great additional recommendation. I’ll add it.
