Because it's literally their job to do so, it's how they make money.
Why does Tucker Carlson talk about things he doesn't care about? Because it's news and he's a news anchor.
You might not like their takes on things but this is a silly argument.
My question was existential. People do a lot of things to make money, but people don't always do things
because money is to be made from it.
Even Tucker realizes he's a stooge made to talk about whatever nonsense has transpired over the week so his gawkers have something ooh and ahh about before they pat themselves on the back for feeling more superior than the folks Tucker berates. Nothing, however, is achieved other than a sense of self-satisfaction. He's preaching to the choir and being parasitic off folks like CNN, MSNBC, and other Lefties his viewers are taught to hate on the day-to-day.
As for the social media anger mongers--EFAP, Drinker, etc--they are no different. They make money off repeating the same sentiments over and over again whilst throwing some shit in the background of a video on subject-matters they've never cared about until that point. As a result, you don't take away anything new or exceptional nor do you gain a better love for the product in question. All you're left with is a feeling of superiority that you're not like
those people whom your favorite YouTuber told you to hate.
Except the people who hate-watch their content usually pirate it.
We at KF Movie Night sometimes watch this crap to laugh at it as well and we never pay for it.
So, because you pirate it, everyone else who hate-watches it must also pirate it?
Sounds like you're trying to justify your own theft there.
Yes, for sure, and that's happened with almost every sequel made after 2015. But I have to wonder how large the adult demo is. Setting aside the character abuse everyone is complaining about, why did HBO think it was a good idea to greenlight a blood n sex Scooby Doo show?
Velma was just trying to capitalize on the same tonal degeneracy as a lot of what's marked the internet in the past 10-20 years. In the end, not much separates its tonal content with South Park except South Park's jokes have a history of being well-written and attacking everyone rather than focusing on one particular political group. That being said, South Park was its own show.
The formula here seems to be to take your favorite childhood cartoons, and just add sex, drugs, blood, and gore to it all and add an extra helping of wokeness. They were probably trying to copy Harley Quinn's format of being a degenerative as possible. What's funny is, amidst the gratuitous violence and death, frequent mentions of sex and sexual innuendo and pixilated genitalia, they also force themes of "female resilience" and "female empowerment." And this virtue signaling is, somehow,
not intended to be comedic but must be taken absolutely seriously.
Maybe it's too hard to get your audience to
feel anything anymore unless you take something nostalgic and turn it into Happy Tree Friends.
Isn't the Velma show set in like a high school? They're suppsoed to be 15 or smth right? Why is there sexual shit in the show?
Keep in mind, a lot of anime romcoms are also set in high school. The difference here, however, is most anime romcoms try to be wholesome in one way or another.
Of course they're going to talk about the newest woke show, they benefit monetarily from it. Velma just keeps showing up on my timeline, the show's so hated the clout is insane.
For me, it's the equivalent to George Orwell's "Two-Minutes Hate." It's all a cathartic response to our woke adversaries meanwhile you scarcely see anything actually being done to remove wokeness from society alltogether. While I understand it, I've never wanted to climb aboard because all you've really become at that point is another of a long line of sheep. So many people bandwagon for no other reason other than that it's just politically expedient to to so. They're being encouraged
not to think.
