The Lotus Eaters

THE LOTUS EATERS ARE A NONE TOO SUBTLE METAPHOR ON THE PERILS OF ESCAPISM

HOW DO YOU MISS THAT SO FUCKING BADLY?

[-] Abraxiel@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago

What, the peril of giving up early on a bunch of dangerous adventures fighting monsters and pissing off powerful beings to go do opiates and/or eat pussy?

I mean, if i found out I was being fucked with by a bunch of suitors while my husband was fucking around on an island getting high...

I gotta say, comparing their desire to mindlessly consume without ever having to see anything that doesn't cater to them to the situation of the lotus eaters is pretty funny. What happened to being free-thinking intellectuals who aren't afraid of hurt feelings?

I was just glancing at some anime pfp dweebs channel and was trying to figure out whether the creator or the people who watch their slop are more depressing.

Why would anyone give a shit about a FNAF movie? Like I'm faintly aware the dev is some form of christian-chud dipshit but aside from "rich chud gets richer" what am I supposed to be mad about?

The creators can at least generate profit from said slop, the audience is just wasting their time and poisoning their brains

[-] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

Yeah I get that there's financial incentive for the slop generator but I can't imagine that they aren't buying into their own rage bait.

Five Nights at Freddy's movie has woke Hollywood critics FREAKING out!

It's getting bad reviews because it's a shit video game adaptation movie?

[-] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

SHE'S WOKE AND SHE HATES YOU.

THE FNAF VIDEO LMAO

These people have deluded themselves, or simply pandering to the fans, that every dog ass video game movie is actually good now. So good that the Elders of Rotten Tomatoes are conspiring to ruin its reputation even though the website and movie are owned by the same company.

Every piece of media has characters in it. Those characters are going to have traits like race and sexuality and physical characteristics that you may or may not find attractive. The only way this could possibly be considered propaganda is if you thought there was some kind of default human and portrayals of literally anyone else was...

Oh. Nevermind. I guess I answered my own question

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago

Imagine thinking mindless media consumption is a serious hobby lmao

[-] ksynwa@lemmygrad.ml 17 points 1 year ago

I don't understand. She looks really pretty. What do these guys want exactly?

[-] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago

For every female character to be a big tiddy anime sex toy.

Escapism is dead because the commodities are providing escapism to other people. It's all supposed to be for me!
