The consumption is the point. They just want candy not a meal. They want fucking marvelslop not Cinema.
Inb4 let people enjoy things, the mindset on display is a perfect member of capitalist society. A mindless consumption machine.

Please be fucking normalllll and yes let people enjoy things
Don’t hate on fans and Marvel’s popularity because the movies lack cinematic sophistry or is artistically stagnant
Hate because it’s propaganda and infests people with
Art consumption is a form of literacy and the vast majority of people are functionally illiterate. This makes capitalist propaganda easy and communist propaganda harder.
Edit: I still don’t blame people for consuming their slop, though. The anti-capeshit vs let-people-enjoy-things discourse is just the most inflammatory version of much more interesting conversation.
I hear what you’re saying but like Garfield > art by any of the ninja turtles; there’s a lot of it and the characters talk too so you know what the cat is trying to say, just saying.
The curtains are blue and the cat likes lasagna
EXACTLY and it’s like who doesn’t?! It’s just so relatable!
No it sucks because it’s artistically stagnant dogshit
Okay yea it sucks so much. I should’ve said don’t hate on fans for that though
I’ll hate on whoever I want. You will never get me to believe it’s ok that society’s culture revolves around marvelbrained baby slop. It’s a sign of deep, deep problems with that society
I highly respect that as a hater in recovery myself
Your hate was never pure enough if you have allowed yourself to regress back into accepting this dreck
It’s like Rumspringa
You’re a Thanos to our Avengers; HEXBEARS ASSEMBLE!

Nope. Nobody has any power over what conditions they arise in, doesn’t change the end results of what they are. I wouldn’t spare a nazi the wall because of the conditions of 20th century Germany molded them, and I would condemn a zionist even if they were born in Israel and brainwashed into it. You can critique individual symptoms and representations of the odious whole. Obviously those are much more serious crimes, but the same logic applies.
Yeah they are, sure. Why are you so defensive about this and not the other 1000 things we mock and hate people for on hexbear dot net?

turning all of the art of film into artless fascist dreck is not harmless, and it’s turned a generation of adults into blithering children. It’s as contemptible as adults who still frame their worldview in harry potter. It’s childish and obscene and reflective of deep problems in society, as I said.
I said the severity of the crimes is not the same.

Think think blaming this exclusively on Marvel movies seems more than a bit reductive.
Dorks can have exactly one (1) artistically bankrupt mega franchise that they enjoy, mostly because it made an impression on them as a child.
I’m stuck with Star Wars, and I’ll have to live with hoping something like Andor season 1 to happen again for the rest of my life.

“Be normal” as a motto in such a diseased society is, uh, not good leftism whatever your podcast papa tells you

Media choices aren’t harmless and if insulting media insults your identity that’s a you problem
i reserve the right to also be a hater in matters of taste.
but ultimately i do not begrudge garbage fans their garbage.
Criticism is like a prison
