The amount of people who are suddenly feeling betrayed by media because it “turned woke” makes me concerned for their overall intelligence.

I knew media literacy was at an all time low, but COME ON. The media was always “woke” you just didn’t want to see it. You saw a show and thought haha funny and never considered that it had any meaning.

Have you ever heard of nuance? Of underlying themes? Do you understand satire?

The characters you glorified were literally making fun of you.

It happened with South Park, it happened with Joker, it happened with American Psycho, and it happened with Fight Club.

Maybe work on your pattern recognition.

Getting confronted with media you hyper-fixated on 3+ years after it was relevant should be considered nuclear warfare

Is it part of the trans experience to low-key hope that you get cancer or am I just fucked up?

I'm starting to realize that i inhabit very academic spaces, and surround myself with people who are literature oriented, so now whenever i meet someone who doesn't provide a sonnet worth of descriptors i just stare at them like.. oh. That's it. Ok.

LIke if you can't describe a color with more than one word, you lost me.

Sometimes I smoke just enough that I have to pause and go “wait… is this how normal people feel?”

And suddenly everything makes sense

I am actually extremely funny at all times, you just need to have had the exact same life experiences and be at the exact same level of chronically online to get it.
