You’re welcome to dislike something, but that doesn’t mean you need to discourage someone else from liking that thing. You can share an opinion without making it sound like it’s a sin against nature to disagree with that opinion.
Then how else am I supposed to feel superior compared to everyone else if I don’t impose my standards on them? I’m just trying to help them. It’s like you want to live in a world where people don’t know they’re loosers. That’s dumb, you’re dumb. /s
Nor did I elect you king of what I’m allowed to enjoy. Go ahead and police people’s thoughts if you insist, but don’t expect to be included by people you willfully offend.
Criticizing things is fine but there is in fact a line where you become the asshole for doing it too hard or in a bad faith way. Or targeting individual people (particularly minors). The PSL thing is a good example because while we can criticize the comedication of it, some of the discourse around it is really misogynistic.
I wasn’t accusing you of it. We aren’t in DMs right now. It was a general statement about something I think is true, that people can use "criticizing things’ as a guise for assholishness and even bigotry. Not saying you’re doing that.
These people want a perfect protected treat echo chamber where they can consoom disney shit endlessly without anyone troubling them with “critiques” or “disagreement”
Eh that depends. The reactionary ragebait Youtubers who do this should all be thrown into a pit together and I’m suspicious of anyone echoing certain talking points about certain media because of them.
I think there’s a difference between “Disney is releasing shit” and "THE WOKE MIND VIRUSSSSS "
But you’re right, Disney today doesn’t feel any different to Disney of 25 years ago. Their new movies are pretty much the same as their old ones. So it really does deserve deeper investigation to check the reasoning.
PSLs are gross, overly sugarladen drinks and emblematic of both crass consumerism and America’s obsession with unhealthy food. Halloween decorations are gaudy and an eyesore and also emblematic of crass consumerism, while also representing a non-trivial amount of non-biodegradable plastic waste that just winds up buried in landfills every year.
Let people not like things.

That’s quite literally sounds like a close family member.
I can discourage or encourage whatever I want. I didn’t elect you king of the discourse or agree to your rules

“Discourage” and “disallow” are two different things.
I will, and you can’t exclude me lmao. Deal with it, you have to deal with critiques and disagreements, how terrible for you
Lmao anyone offended because someone criticised their latest marvel slop or videogame deserves to be their head shoved in a toilet.

I literally don’t care about being an asshole, that’s fine. I can criticize whatever I want
You should probably care about things like misogyny and harassing minors lol. Which is what my post was about.
Making up something I’m not doing to get mad about

If intolerant bigots could read that they’d be very upset
Edit: and here they come to out themselves
bigotry and intolerance are when you criticize my treats
These people want a perfect protected treat echo chamber where they can consoom disney shit endlessly without anyone troubling them with “critiques” or “disagreement”
Jokes on you. I think Disney is releasing shit after shit release
And you should be able to say that as loudly and as often as you like!
Eh that depends. The reactionary ragebait Youtubers who do this should all be thrown into a pit together and I’m suspicious of anyone echoing certain talking points about certain media because of them.

Wow why you yukking Disney’s yum?
Sorry but I like [thing] and therefore [thing] must be held inviolate from even the mildest criticism.
What criticism even is there against PSLs and Halloween decorations??
PSLs are gross, overly sugarladen drinks and emblematic of both crass consumerism and America’s obsession with unhealthy food. Halloween decorations are gaudy and an eyesore and also emblematic of crass consumerism, while also representing a non-trivial amount of non-biodegradable plastic waste that just winds up buried in landfills every year.
Ahh yes, the classic emblem of America’s crass consumerism checks notes flavored coffee.
PSLs and Halloween decorations are bourgeois decadance, clearly.
lattes are french and therefore bourgeois, real proles drink black coffee or take trucker pills.
