Watched a little bit of this show for this first time in like 20 years. Crazy that I used to love this show - but at least I have an excuse, I was like 14 at the time.
It's tough to even finish one episode, it's just so, so bad. Painfully unfunny. Of course there's just a ton of underlying sexism and focus on gender roles. But it's really just death by a thousand unfunny cuts.
And this was one of the most popular shows in the 90s, and arguably THE most popular among what are now boomers (I'd say Seinfeld, Friends, and ER were mostly watched by Gen-Xers)! But I think I'm starting to understand the brain rot of boomers a little better. Of course Tim Allen turned out to be a massive chud. Boomers think this is the way the world should be. Men should be "men" i.e. an insane stereotype of masculinity not as lived by real people, but as portrayed by actors for entertainment. And the boomers don't get why we don't want to go along with it and anything they don't understand that makes them angry leads to tantrums.
Seriously, maybe I'll make Chapo Chat challenge coins for anyone who can sit through like 3 episodes in a row...
I remember when this show ended, they had this big tv event blowout with all these heartfelt stories from the actors about how much the show meant to them and how sad they were it was over, and I remember.... like, crying with my family because of it.... Of course I was like a small kid so I didn't really know what was going on? But I have though back on this moment several times as evidence (as you have pointed out) about how America absolutely must be destroyed.
Also worth pointing out that in addition to the Grandma's Boy failson guy, Tim Allen was recently talking about marxism on Twitter lmao: https://twitter.com/ofctimallen/status/1327362470868971520?s=20
Wait, tf is going on there?
Just to let you know Comrade. Don't feel bad at all for crying during times like that. That shows you have developed empathy. It means you can look at the suffering of others and actually understand it as similar to suffering that you have gone through and you feel that same pain.
IMO its one of the key differences between us and the chuds
