    Almost anything mainstream and popular lol.

    "The contrarian leftist who hates fun and only likes obscure arthouse shit no one cares about" is a stereotype with some truth to it imo.

      The one true leftist is not so selfish as to experience the sensation called "pleasure" by the bourgeois.

        to feel pleasure is akin to feeling satisfaction, and to be satisfied is, without any doubt, to identify with the ruling class and the greater status quo

        LOL the Spider-Man shit was hilarious because that movie did a lot to address the “complaints” many people on here had about cape movies, only they then got mad that it fixed it TOO MUCH. It was the seed bell scene from Simpsons performed by a bunch of jaded leftists.

      I often wonder if I don't like a lot of the mainstream movies subconsciously just to be contrarian. I don't believe I do but I feel like something is wrong with me when everybody around loves something that I think is complete garbage.
