I Like Toast 01/07/21 6:59:15 PM #19:	Heavy_D_Forever posted... Every major production company today thinks woke is what will get them ratings, so yes woke = pleasing everyone. what's your upside of taking this stance? option 1.) the majority of people are okay with black empowerment and that makes you upset because you're racist option 2.) the majority of people aren't okay with black empowerment but those evil tv guys think they are and that makes you upset because you're racist bad shows existed 20 years ago, we just don't remember them because they're bad. Lovecraft county is a great show to a person with your awful taste it's "woke". The fact of the matter is the way many minorities are treated is quite poorly and a big part of that is because a lot of the country is self-segregated and just don't deal with other minorities. So portraying them positively or showcasing the struggles they face that you might not in media is one of many small ways to shift away from people with your mentality. --- If you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all https://mikelikesthis.net the blog no one asked for is back <cite>I Like Toast posted [p:949236886] in Remember w...
