  • Idk I’d guess for a lot of people it’s just pinning their dislike which might come from anywhere to a superficialy unfamiliar part of whatever media they are watching. The other reason is like, conservative patriarchal propaganda, trolling, bait whatever and just sorta falling into the crowd on any of these.

    Also there is media written for women that likely doesn’t have this problem, or at least not as much. But then again the normative position to sell to is a male one.

    Now being male I never really see an issue with my media representation(because there is none at least from numbers), but also I generally complain about media not for it’s cast of characters. If I complain it’s usually, either because I just feel uncomfortable/bored with it for whatever reason, or because it comes of as disingenuous or lazy, both of which will get me to drop it.

    Art by committee/ marketing aim doesn’t feel right to me usually and casting female/progressive can sometimes happen for that reason. As in a part of the cast makeup is decided in order to bait a particular reaction to generate publicity, and conservatives being angry is still publicity.

    In this case then the real issue of bad art is doubly masked by one one hand people complaining about woke cast, while on the other hand people consume slop they would’ve never known if not for baited conservatives complaining. While the production behind it laughs it’s way to the bank.

    I’m just one guy tho who hasn’t really even seen all that much what do I know about art, content and the world.






  • The sad thing is that it is buyable but not in places below like 200k population. In Europe idk how far third wave type coffe got everywhere else but I’d imagine in international cities it’s largely available all over the world.

    It’s frankly insane how different a specialty coffe place is from a Caffe. And how many specialty coffe places there are in big cities/ university towns.

    The provinces seem to not be able to sustain good coffe unfortunately. Unless there is someone who doesn’t care about the balance sheet.
