This. It seems like a more reasonable approach would be to remove the word blind from your vocab as a pejorative. Like when someone cuts you off in traffic and you shout “are you blind”, that sort of thing. I’m fully on board for being more considerate. But policing the dozen other definitions of the word that are not…

Am I missing something with that guys explanation?

So should we rename window blinds? How about hunting blinds? How about blind corners on roads? Et cetera.

Hell, this isn’t even in a negative one. A blind playthrough is a good thing! This kind of faux-supportive bullshit just…

These things are not mutually exclusive

I think movie theaters need to adapt and change. Stagnation leads to death. How exactly should they change? Fuck if I know. They don’t pay me to fix their shit so I’m not gonna waste time contemplating it.

Little of column A, little of column B.
