Yeah, I’m a bit on the fence about this myself. On one hand, it’s not even really funny, and is really obnoxious. On the other hand, I hate how studios have been trying to bend over backwards for China, and trying to appease the Chinese government as much as possible. I kinda wonder if this was Anderson’s way of…

They remind me of Americans on the internet circa the 00s, during the height of the “War on Terror”. Lots of people trying to find something to be offended about on behalf of their country.

Hey, Chinese government authorities deliberately censored and suppressed growing evidence of a global plague, while actively running concentration camps and engaging in ethnic/cultural cleansing, and an English-language movie featured a dumb pun. It all balances out!

I’m Chinese myself, and... yeah, it’s kind of obnoxious, but I’m also kind of numb to China pitching a bitch about everything. This seems like a really petty thing comparatively.

I must say that the “let’s go over apologies with a fine toothed comb to decide if its sincere” stage of outrage cycles is almost certainly the most annoying part of the ritual.

And it would have just been courteous to say, “Hey, I know you’re planning your next 20 movies…

Fuck the CCP

Starred for the effort. Maybe workshop it though.

Kotaku has lost a lot of the writers who would do more “real journalism.” I don’t mean that to demean blogging or the writers here now, just that Jason, Heather, Cecelia, Gita, and others would often post stories with sources that did deep dives into a topic. Journalism, not blogging.

Wait a minute?! You mean to tell me that a very attractive woman has a boyfriend and doesn’t actually care about me, some random ass hole on the internet?! The audacity. The horror. How dare she have her own life outside of my desire to have sex with her despite not really knowing her and only being in love with the…

Thank god I’m too old for this shit.
