    No offense to people who don’t read, but it seems like somebody with a platform like that (300k subs) should use their voice responsibly. You can have good ideas, but if you’ve never got yourself a coherent political philosophy to work from, and you don’t read or at least skim over work from experts on the topic, you’ll end up being part of the unthinking mainstream and repeating whatever people with the deepest pockets need you to say.

    Idk what CD’s angle is but he seems to be the average of his type. I assume he has avoided the pitfalls of some of his peers who complained about She-Ra wearing shorts?

      I agree with his film criticism and opinions on modern audiences and the new strong female character trope etc. I disagree with the notion that these things are part of a greater social/political problem. It’s just Hollywood making shitty movies as it flails around dying, that’s all. No need to build a political ideology around it.

        There’s no reason why they can’t be part of one or many agenda even if he himself is mistaken. Hollywood has a history and purpose you know. Politicians have blathered their mouths often about using it as a mouthpeice against ‘official adversaries’.
