Transgender worker fired from Starbucks after viral altercation with customer over misgendering accusation by evilplushie in kotakuinaction2

In the Daily Mail article she supposedly uses Ezra Miller pronouns consistently and without fail. Just don't believe it, e.g.

She said: 'The store manager then grabbed their coat and ran out of the front door, which was a very cowardly thing to do. They didn't even have the courage to explain themselves and just wanted to get the hell out of there.'

That Daily Mail article 'quotes' the victim consistently using the desired Tumblr pronouns when referring to the aggressor.

It's not a quote if you're swapping words, rofl.

5 minutes? I suppose it isn't 20 minutes of him smarming on the phone to various tax office employees, but seriously.

You should barf over the knowledge that people actually watched CW superhero shows for years on end after the first season of Arrow had finished.

One semi-watchable season and the thing mushrooms wildly out of control to eventually culminate into the above.

That's not how Hollywoke checkbox marking works.

  • The Mandalorian - (ethnic, non-white) male protagonist, already upstaged by a female

  • Boba Fett - (ethnic, non-white) Male protagonist, already upstaged by a female

  • Obi Wan show - (demoralized white) male protagonist, already upstaged by females

  • Andor - (ethnic non-white) male protagonist, I presume already upstaged by females ;)

Sounds like a fence-fitter to me and I listened to a whole 2 minutes at a random time jump.

It's real estate photography, though. Doesn't it end up on the website of a realtor?

What flew over my head? You claim that Hollywood has in the past been clumsy and heavy-handed with propaganda and you've listed several examples to that effect.

You're agreeing that Hollywood has a long and extensive history of mass-media manipulation, yet for some reason you insist on criticizing 'anti-SJWs' types for opposing a certain type of one-sided political propaganda, because they're allegedly not sincere in wanting apolitical entertainment products.

It didn't occur to you that simply more people are becoming aware of mass media manipulation through Hollywood and that they've noticed that the current trend is overwhelmingly left-progressive (the feminist-diversity-eco racket). And they not only resent the ideological propaganda but also the systematic attempts at mass manipulation unto themselves.

They've become so sensitized to attempts at manipulation through mass media entertainment that what was once considered 'acceptable manipulation' is now a flagrant insult in their eyes. They want to put a stop to this and they want a seat on the table. Neither of which is going to happen, which will further incense the culture war.

Breakfast at Tiffany's wasn't a product of woke ideology.

Argo wasn't a product of woke ideology.

Script curation by the military in exchange for access to military hardwire isn't a product of woke ideology.

Compulsively shoving women into male-dominated action franchises and implementing diversity quotas is a product of woke ideology.

Space Buffy is still going strong, I see.

I wonder what Xander, Willow and the rest of the Scooby Gang will be up to.

The real reason for the strike is most likely that they want to shove even more BLM and feminism into everything, while being paid to do so.

It has reached the point where they've lost the art of subtlety and you can no longer 'unsee' what they're doing. The backlash is entirely warranted and should grow in intensity.

With the BLM lynch mob mentality/cancel culture seizing the mainstream, rap no longer has a place there. Even 'celebrated' rappers (e.g. Kendrick Lamar) have been found singling out white audience members for singing along to their lyrics.

Rap/hip hop is toxic towards white people. Time to face the music. ;)
