I know that you logged on onto the comments section of a pop culture site to make a very stupid and wrong insinuation that the “outrage machine” is racist.

“calling out liberal racism means absolving conservatives”

Ah yes, the stupid right-wing slippery slope nonsense of “liberals are the real racists” in order to excuse their own racism.

13. Remember or care about that Shang-Chi fellow? Yeah? No? Us too.

The first Bad Boys is one of Michael Bay’s best films.

That doesn’t change his/the point that Fox and the media as a whole doesn’t have to be this way. And it didn’t until the Reagan Admin revoked the Fairness Doctrine in the 80s that paved the way for Fox News madness.

Or like I said up thread, Avatar/Captain Planet/Wall-E, etc, as far as corporations being eco-villians which is the most realistic and safest depiction of real evil by a real life corporation. You’re right that they sure ain’t going to depict themselves doing the everyday messed up things they do like screw over their…

The only thing you’ve been telling me in two days of these constant replies is that you’re really out of touch with American middle class society and how it works. Especially if you think that they’ll pay money to watch your kind of radical anti-establishment politics and social views.

It’s so cute how ya’ll think Fallout is that and so “anti-corporate” enough to contain a message about Amazon.

The “middle/upper-class pap” are the ones shelling out the big bucks to watch the $20 a ticket Pixar Star Wars movies and fly out to Disneyland/World for their family vacations, buying the souvenirs, and etc.

You continue to miss the point that Disney is absolutely not ever going to make the radical, anti-establishment movies you want. Pro and very soft “save the environment/natives/planet” message like in Avatar or Wall-E, sure, but that’s the most it’ll ever get.

That’s not the anti-corporate criticisms he wants and is talking about.

Judging from your comments on this article alone, you’re just more mad in the most passive aggressive way at “AVClub wish/rinse/repeat cycle” towards Seinfeld’s personal and political views more than anything. And in that sense, who is forcing you to click on and read this and the AVClub as a whole if it bothers you…

Do all movies for adults have to be anti-corporate criticisms? Or just the ones you want to watch?

Yeah dude, you are not going to get Disney, which is the quintessential American oligarchy, to make content essentially criticizing itself and its fellow corporations.

If he doesn’t care, then why did he answer and comment?

If he doesn’t care, then why’s he still talking about and complaining about it?

Except that no money argument is accurate. Especially if you live in the big expensive cities/metro areas. https://fortune.com/2024/01/29/now-gen-z-is-taking-on-the-cost-of-living-crisis-by-loud-budgeting/

I think the real reason and problem is that their takeover of Jezebel and Splinter and especially moving their commenting system to their own and a pay per post was a disaster. Go there now and you see tumbleweeds. Nobody seems to read those two anymore, so Paste is hanging on to Kinja and the old format for now while…

It’s good to see you again and have you back Jesse! Miss your writing and commentary.
