Remember how in American Psycho, Patrick Bateman would go on these long diatribes
I thought those were semi-famous reviews people made at the time about those albums and that was to show how empty he was, he was such an NPC he actually did get his opinions about the new genesis album from the faggiest critics at Rolling Stone or Pitchfork. It would be like a character quoting RLM's Prequel reviews, something everyone online would have understood as a reference a dozen years ago but might be lost on people now.
Orwell wrote about his disgust at the types of supporters socialism inevitably attracted,
I always thought of Orwell like a guy who literally believes "what if the child consented" and is too retarded to make the connection between everyone else that agrees with him being child rapists and how possibly the stated views are a smokescreen for more vile views
. I could see THHE being an allegory for enforcing a strict society norms.
howling mutant said it best when he said it was a generic "civilization vs savages" film, only this time it was the inbred rednecks, for the original Assault on Precinct 13 it was ghetto gangsters, for Zulu it was african tribes people, and then you have Night/Dawn of the dead which gave us the ultimate savage.....the zombie but before zombies became a genre into itself, people used all sorts of groups. on the wiki itself for the film it talks about being inspired by Hansel&Gretel and grimm's fairtales about the dangers of the woods.
It was also the first time that Freddy was openly acknowledged as a pedophile and not just a serial killer.
you mean in cinema, the reason they made that the arc of the film was because by that time in online discussion the "he's such a funny guy, he was clearly the victim" was as close to the normal opinion as "the white people (in starship troopers) are the bad guys!" or "grease was all a dream!" fortunately unlike Chucky, the franchise wasn't poisoned by millennials at that point so the boomers in charge made sure to mock that trope entirely.
Be careful Wendigoons "regular guy" persona is so strong you could mistake it for the real thing
thats pretty much what it is, breadtubers are so used to fake personas and tricking audiences and making things based on if it gets approval from friends that someone just putting up something because they want to is incomprehensible to them.
I'm surprised no one tried to go after him
he's niche? like we know about him here but he's like early e;r where he's not big enough for someone outside the sector or a leftist to really stumble upon him.
I realize I am sperging, but as someone that lives in Appalachia, these transplants to Ashville are fucking insufferable
people don't realize but 2020s NC Triangle is like 90s Brooklyn, or 2000s Portland. its the trendy place for white people to be. its both cheap and has an art scene so people fucking love it. There were more white people cheering on fucking soccer than any other sport last time i visited there. calling it hipster mecca is hilariously true.
Which is why my cheap ass trump obsessed relatives that retired to there will be getting a massive surprise when they wizen up. "Congrats on your son winning another poetry competition, he must be thinking up all those lines at the gym he's constantly at, maybe he'll use the prize money for his yearly june vacations or even to take a girl out on a date. plenty of dudes in their 30s with 7% bodyfat don't ask girls out on dates, he's a confirmed bachelor"
Like if you really want your kids to only learn about two genders, you can't pick a worse place to move to.
