That title got your blood pressure up didnt it!
Well im here to defend 'em!
I just posted the below on Trading Places board (in reply to "can millenilas handle this film?" , but then it occurred to me no one would ever see it so i'll put it here too:
---------------------------------------------------

at least 50% of what i read on this board is
"i hate this modern pc rubbish"
"why it gone all softly softly"
"millenials are snowflakes , "
"another reboot with women / blacks /midgets in it"
"Leftys!" (i h8 that one)

So it seems the most bitching whining and complaining is done by those that are claiming to be old school / stoic / broad minded / i can take it / Dennis Leary / George Carlin types.

I have yet to see a snowflake complaining there was too much swearing in a film , or not enough diversity.
Am i wrong?

I don't watch the majority of modern films, not because of how PC they apparently all are, but because directors aren't really coming up with any new ideas these days. I know there is more PC than there used to be, and to be fair, I'm not a fan of it either, but it is greatly exaggerated by people on here. One troll called the 2004 version of "Dawn of the Dead" politically correct without saying why. I've watched that movie and there is nothing PC about it, in fact I'd say the exact opposite in regards to that movie.

It is all fake ... this is media and social media mass manipulation.
This is how they are fighting wars now, but it has been going on for
a long time without the Internet too.

Read the book : LikeWar: The Weaponization of Social Media

It is very eye-opening. The cure for all this lying and manipulation is
that when you find out about it and learn to be suspicious it is a kind
of immunity.

It is a direct attack, and even by elements of our own country and
government too against democracy, but from Russia and China as well,
but also extreme right-wing groups like the KKk and Nazis.

Large media corporations would never conspire to set an agenda. It's the users who are doing it! Millions and millions of them all in on it together! They are upset they are losing their privilege!
