He keeps sending me Facebook memes like the ones about Netflix putting in an LGBT character in the story, or posting vids from asmongold or whatever. Then goes on to rant about "blackwashing" and shit. I really don't care to argue with him about this so I just post gifs back. But it makes me wonder why people go out of their way to purposely get pissed off about the media they consume? Just....

Whenever I have any friends who try to talk about woke so much I just mock them about how smart they are. I always talk about how they know everything, so ahead of the curve, how much of a lion they are around a bunch of sheeps. People sometimes tend to understand how cringe or how awful they come off when you show them how much of a try hard they are. --- Don't like it? Don't watch it.

The entire country is gonna be like this, Republicans aren't gonna stop until every single piece of media is completely devoid of anybody not white, or white looking, straight, (they seem to have no problem with bi sexual girls as long as they're pretty and have a man between for some reason) and if there are minority characters in the story they are bit characters that get little to no attention or are antagonists. These racist fuckers won't stop even when they have that, they need that enemy, they need someone to hate because if they aren't in a state of rage and hatred they'll have to look around at their life and come to the realization that it's fucked up and bad because things that have nothing to do with sexuality, race or gender. Shitbags like the rat king will gleefully encourage this behavior because once he started doing it more he got more subscribers, thus more attention, thus more money, hatred sells and unfortunately there are many people buying. --- A worthless existence ...

Often times with these sorts of people you don't even need to actively push back but instead show complete indifference. Dude is complaining about a charactet being black? Just reply "So what?" or "and...?" or "who cares?". This either causes them to stop talking to you about it because you won't feed their outrage, try to explain why it's a problem but can't because they don't actually know and are just outrage-pilled, or give you the most racists/sexists/homophobic rant you've ever heard. The first two might actually cause them to self-reflect. The latter at least shatters the illusion that they are actually a good dude and let's you cut them off easier. Oh and if they are posting Facebook slop, just make fun of them for using Facebook at all. Call them a boomer or a grandpa or some shit. --- 1 line break(s), 160 characters allowed ...
