From this video by right-populist and noted loser Dimmy Jore
They don’t have a theory of mind. We aren’t part of the audience, we’re more like wildlife or scenery. NPCs, y’know?
It’s quite telling how popular “simulation theory” and especially “dae everyone I don’t like NPCs” beliefs are among billionaires.
I mean tbh having worked in food service for years I have to believe that at least half the people I see are actual NPCs
I met a guy practicing to be an NPC on Friday. Straight up lead with “I’ve been practicing my animatronic wave!” .>
Talking down to an audience they hate
I love when CHUDs see shit like the She-Hulk scene mocking sexist fans and go “waaaaaah they hate their audience”
My Brother in Christ if you feel seen by scenes like that that is 100% on you. The rest of us do not feel alienated by TV shows calling out sexists.
The entitled manchildren are here to explain why not pandering to a hateful minority is alienating their audience
As far as he’s fallen these days, MovieBob once pointing out in a very old video, from when he still worked for the Escapist, that white male nerds are getting angry that they aren’t the only target audience for nerd media anymore was a formative moment for me. Probably helped stop me from going down the wrong path.
Like thats what a LOT of this rage is about. White male nerds are no longer the most special wonderful target audience and are no longer being exclusively catered too and that makes them fucking FURIOUS. And they are reacting like the spoiled brats they are.

Remember when MAGA chuds told on themselves by seeing the Galactic Empire being negatively portrayed in Rogue One and calling it anti-Trump propaganda?
I missed that one but thats hilarious. I do remember that reaction to other things though like Wolfeinstein and Farcry uh… 6? The one with the southern cult leader.
Far Cry 5 is like the most cowardly game ever made. Ubisoft could have easily made the cult into overt white supremacists, which is how they’re coded, and yet they aren’t. They even don’t identify as Christians. (There’s a scene where a cultist slaps a Bible out of a preacher’s hands and replaces it with their cult book)
And the good guys are all cops, small business owners, and little militia groups in the mountains that also wave American flags. Game is pretty fun though and has some cool moments.
Nah you thinking of far cry 5. 6 is where you’re a guerrilla revolutionary working with farmers, workers, anarchists and old communists to overthrow a Dictator who overthrew a communist government (a shit one since the libs can’t make a good game)
talking down to audience they hate
Shoehorning their politics into their crappy writing
I can sympathize. I too am tired of those shitty pro-pentagon movies. Especially pro-pentagon movies about evil Russians, shown in Russia
talking down to audience they hate Shoehorning their politics into their crappy writing
I’m sick and tired of Zack Snyder shit, too!
CHUDs think they represent the “silent majority.” That everyone agrees with their hateful nonsense, but is too scared of the wokes/sjws/commies etc to admit it.
It’s hilarious but true - they think they represent some huge number of americans who are out there, disregarded by enormous media and portions of tech. In fact, they represent less than a third of Americans who are stuck fighting a losing race war that they’re convinced is going to turn on them and eliminate their control (it will) then eliminate them - and they jump to these sick conclusions because of their rampant projection, it’s exactly what they would do if they had control so of course they fear it.
Well they feel alienated since right-wingers can still count on the state and capital to follow along with their ideology, but culturally they feel confused since movies, shows, advertising, etc is captured by ideological liberals. Right wingers have basically everything they want in terms of political victories at the moment.
By that I mean they’re winning when it comes to actual enforcement of racism and transphobia. Structural bigotry is still rampant and is getting worse. And this is at odds with American popular culture, which is will often vaguely gesture in the direction of progressive values. There will be gay characters, or trans characters, like little progressive snacks for suburban liberal types.
Are chuds aware they’re not the only ones who watch movies
What do they care? They want total hegemony of content that caters to and enforces their hostile, exclusive world view.
