Hey guys, I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this, but to give a genuine and honest critique of a piece of media, you actually have to like. Consume it. And interact with it to an extent to get a feel for the context.

I'm getting tired of seeing people say, "This movie/show/book has bad representation because good representation would include (thing that is explored in the media)."

Guys you can't look at a couple clips on Twitter and think that's all there is.

#meow.#I dare you to read huck finn i dare you.#i dare you to read it fully and give a proper analysis #i swear if that book came out today it would be bashed on twitter because #'Did they really need to say the n-word this much? 😬'#and call Mark Twain racist because 'Why is this white man so desperate to use slurs in his book 🤔'#Use your BRAAAAAIIIIIIIINS #GO ON. RUB THOSE TWO BRAINCELLS TOGETHER!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!!#Im sorry im being mean #BUT PLEAAAAAAASE #its Painful #Not everything hare-y pot-or #where you can look at the prpblematic content of the book and find those beliefs ring true for the person who made it #Thats part of analysis. being able to make that distinction #you have to look at the context both within the text and around it. like when and why it was written or by who.#You can say that you didnt like how something was portrayed. you can say things came across as distasteful #but some of yall will throw around some very serious accusations all willy nilly and i am not okay with that #Sorry i come to tumblr to rant about shit i see on twitter
