Lloyd Marcus - Young Adults Fed Up With SJW And LGBTQ Tyranny
2019-11-05
[News with Views] The new Batwoman TV series featuring an openly lesbian Batwoman is failing big-time. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that young adults are turned off by the show’s extreme woke and SJW (social justice warrior) politically correct messaging. "Woke" means you are aware of social and racial injustice. "Woke" also means straight white men are the source of all evil and must be punished. Women and minorities are perfect in every way. Woke culture says anyone who dares criticize a woman or a minority hates women and minorities.

Batman fans are outraged over the new Batwoman TV series trashing Batman and its in-your-face trashing of men. If there were such a thing as a woke-a-meter with a range of 1-10, the new Batwoman TV series would receive an 11.

It was a pleasure to learn that young adults are fed-up with SJW Hollywood writers and producers destroying their favorite movie franchises. The 2016 Ghostbusters movie bombed, losing $70 million, infected with woke. SJW has infected Star Wars and various superhero movies. Angry fans say, "Get woke, go broke!" Hollywood has declared that SJW, diversity and gender-swapping in movies is more important than entertaining stories.

Critics rave about movies that check all the right SJW boxes; must praise homosexuality, women and minorities while trashing straight white men. Meanwhile, fans avoid such movies in droves.

It blows my mind that despite losing mega-millions Hollywood is undeterred, hellbent on cramming SJW political messaging down our throats. As a Christian, I believe a spirit of anti-Christ is driving Hollywood’s financially illogical behavior. Hollywood producers love to poke fun of and demonize Christians. They freely use Jesus’ name in vain. And yet, they would never dare to use Muhammad’s name in vain.

In response to the failure of the 2016 Ghostbusters movie, the filmmakers attacked the fans, calling them woman-hating trolls. The star of the Batwoman TV series, Ruby Rose, attacked viewers for the show’s plummeting ratings. Rose said the show is not for old white men.

Clearly, Hollywood’s SJW writers and producers have disdain for average Americans. Loyal fans of various movie franchises say they feel crapped upon. Ignoring fan’s rejection, Hollywood pushes full-speed ahead on creating a new America in which wholesome traditions, biblical principles and values are burned on the alter in worship to their god of debauchery.

#9  So full of advice was Ms. Rose,
Confused to the tips of her toes,
But sure of her station:
A model creation
Fixated above her own nose.

#8  Augh ! They shot the terminator to shit. Shit !

The SKYNET of the first two Terminator films was a projection of the cold war angst, and a depiction of the harsh, almost hydraulically actuated bureaucracies growing too powerful under rampant systematization.

If you notice, the increased malleability and polymorphous ductility of the current fictive robot is a projection of hollywood angst about changing sexual roles and gender associations. The concept of SKYNET as a viable enemy is rendered quite useless as the AI revolution never delivered anything beyond toy dogs and roomba®.

The real enemy shown in the film are now ICE agents and the stupidity of law enforcement and governments when the 'survival of the human race may depend any day now on an illegal immigrant !'

#7  Was there really a large fan base for Batwoman or did they hope Batman fans would tune in?

Perhaps among old geezers and aging l3sb1ans that still remember Julie Newmar.

#6  ^ that's easy to verify. Someone should compare their domestic and international revenues before and after Kaepernick ads to see if there's any merit to that argument. Perhaps you're right but I doubt it.

#3  Hmmm ... dangerous to hold up the many-headed Consumer beast as some kind of jury or other democratic verdict on Wokeness. Lots of evidence to be had that there is indeed a large market for virtue-signaling garbage. Look at Nike's stock post-Kaepernick ads and other weaselly stunts.

Woke does sell. Decades of indoctrination by schools and the media have conditioned most Americans to believe their country is a sinkhole of racism, bigotry and oppression have achieved their intended goal.

#1  IMO, it's not the message - ti's the fact that there's nothing but the message.
