I can't wait for The Culture War to move onto something even dumber than this
Fox News has been trying to get a war on meat thing going because of rising prices.
Meat wars are coming.
Rising meat prices because of climate change and increased demand from an increasingly wealthy Chinese population will mean that poor people won't be able to eat as much of it as they're used to. The right will use its mass media monopoly to make them blame the left for this and get people worked up over SJV blue hair vegan woke madness cancelling your hamburger.
Hiding in the closet, clutching a baseball bat in my sweaty palms, as I cower in terror. I hear heavy footsteps outside the closet door, and I hold by breath. A soft voice whispers "Jamie, bring that up."
It's too late.
I know I'm cancelled now.
The right owns talk radio, then the internet, and now they have a monopoly on podcasts too.
I'd argue they dominate TV too, just less so.
What media/entertainment forms truly belong to the left? And does the left dominate any of the above in non-English language spheres?

Kids TV... for reals though. It's the one media where you are actually taught to be a good person, to share, do good for others/your community, and deal with feelings in a healthy manner. It's also very hard for the Chuds to fight it because it means they have to admit that a lot of their beliefs are founded in hate, fear, and selfishness.
Does anime qualify for this too? Even if there are some shows geared for adults?
Naruto preaches that hard work > "talent" or "destiny". Ghibli movies are all about appreciating the mundane, especially nature. and don't even get me started on full metal alchemist.
By all means:
- The story deals with a lot of commentary on war, racism, imperialism, and even some sexism.
One of my favorite characters, Scar, is a victim of an ethnic cleansing of his people that he wants to fight against. Hell, the nation of amestris is a pretty fashy state.
Lastly, it warns against of the things that CHUDs love to do the most: play God.
That's all I can say without spoiling too much.
Oh I've seen fmab so I'd like to see a deeper analysis because I have never really seen anyone comment on the politics of it
Some yes some no, I feel most is aimed more towards teens so tends to be a bit more lib about having to compromise ideals etc.
what if we built a machine that could cancel anything
and then we built a machine that was unabled to be canceled
and then we put the uncancellable machine inside the cancel machine, what would be the result
Until someone drops a Split Second card or a card like Discontinuity that preemptively ends the turn and clears the stack.
Oh no it's some sort of culture war Reservoir Dogs standoff; "LARRY QUIT POINTING THAT FUCKING CANCEL CULTURE AT MY DAD!" :gun-shapiro: :xi-gun:
Too bad I had my trap card ready!
I play my trap card and cancel your canceling of canceling!
Honestly, I really don't realize how fox news is this fucking popular. America needs to be nuked for the good of mankind
If we replaced Fox News with huffing PVC cement the country would be a lot more intellually developed.
Too many people only believe what they want to believe.
CNN may be state propaganda, but it's not brainwashy enough for people because they'll confess to a few things normies don't want to hear. Like how genocide and lynching wrong, and being mean for no reason is wrong, and that the rainbow people aren't THAT bad. It's like McDonald's: sure, they know it's bad for them, but it tastes gud.
But wait by cancelling cancel culture he becomes part of cancel culture. So now we have to cancel the cancelling of cancel culture.... But that brings back cancel culture so it must again be cancelled!.. :ohnoes:
I don’t know what any of it means.
But it sounds Latin and important.
Note - not latinO and thus foreign and bad.
Double note - Latin quotes are for nerds who died before Star Trek was around.
God I fucking hate him so much. Why couldn't you just die from COVID you absolute piece of dog shit?
