I guess the Deprogram guys are the Three Stooges now? But the joke doesn’t really work
why is that uncle authority guy so mad about what’s a pretty innocuous post, he’s made like 20 subposts about it
terminally online malding
Hakim’s take is a little cringe but getting this worked up about it is orders of magnitude worse.
In retrospect, it reads like bait. Reminds me of the time during the Bush / Gore debate when Bush said Jesus was his favorite historical figure and Gore rolled his eyes, then spent the rest of the election apologizing for it.
He does this whenever he thinks hes got a hit tweet.
He once posted all day for like a full week about how he epic owned the nordics about food cause he posted “rotten reindeer cock” over and over, it used to be his bio like “destroyer of subhuman nordic cuisine” or something like that.
i love the guys that are like, tryin to theorize the best, most marxist, politics while also vividly hallucinating that the year is 1921 and they have been asked to give a speech on how best to collectivize the Russian economy.
He is like 75% correct posting with the confidence of someone who is 105% correct.
Roderick being terminally online is normal for him, like that time he wanted a teacher sitcom to have a school shooting episode and triple down
It would have been right in line with 90s TV. You’d just replace the gun with a toy knife and run a Much Ado About Nothing plotline where everyone accuses each other of owning it in a silly mix up with a serious message.
Assuming you’re talking about Fresh Prince, that was Will. Carlton then gets a gun in a promise of revenge.
His ultimate point was also not really about it being good or bad in quality, he just has the position that artists have a social responsibility and got mad that the show decided against portraying a reality(school shootings in the USA) because it would be discomforting, as a basic summary. He doesnt like slop.
If he wants to make a point about artists having a social responsibility to accurately portray reality, he should’ve just said sitcoms are a reactionary genre and artists with a desire to produce revolutionary work ought to not be involved in the production of sitcoms. Because sitcoms make most of their money through syndication, reaired episodes aren’t shown in order. This means sitcom episode always reset to a status quo, which means you’ll never be able to portray the effects of lasting change. From this, a school shooter episode wouldn’t work because the following episodes would all have to pretend a school shooting never happened, and while that could be used as a commentary on school administration, even the characters would have to pretend the school shooting never happened.
This is what I meant earlier about him being a pseud. I don’t know if he’s genuinely this pig-headed or if he’s just purposefully being edgy, but the effect is still the same.
Why are people latching on to this one tweet by Hakim lol
Says something non Marxist that is tailist about an idealist ideology while ignoring Marxist analysis tends to not be popular
:sadness: I hate it when my dads fight
Ok, Wodewick
