Do we live in the same reality? Did you not watch the 2016 Republican National Convention and see Newt Gingrich say that the facts may show that crime is on the decrease, but the fact that things feel less safe is what matters? Did you not see Michael Gove say that the problem with modern liberal politics is that βpeople have frankly had enough of expertsβ? The people that hold these political opinions are exactly the mouth breathing man-children that watch this stuff literally, believe in Pizzagate await the next Q-anon update. That is their entire media diet; not a rare treat, not something to be counterbalanced with The New York Times. It is all they consume and the impact of that is echoing in the post-truth political landscape.
^ a weird perspective where superhero movies are seen exclusively by republicans
theres a lot of people who agree with these takes and then you check their history and theyre wokeshitters angry superhero movies dont talk about trump all day. it's a strange beast

I like super heroes but itβs because Iβm an emotionally stunted man child. People just need to admit the same. No superhero media is intended for intelligent adults lmfao

Who imagines the elderly watch anything laudable, tho. I think this is where the brainrot sets in. "Police Gazette" was the bestselling publication in the 1800s (it was just True Crime accounts of murders, so like old people watching CSI.)

to me enjoying fiction is like enjoying food. you need to have a healthy diet of shows out of your comfort zone and classics you haven't seen, with stuff like superheroes, sci-fi and horror schlock reserved as treats. so you can read your monthly spider-man or batman but pls intersperse it with something middlebrow like breaking bad or the sopranos then even try watching a david lynch movie. don't just consume snacks all day
