MovieWeb: Petition Demands M. Night Shyamalan's Split Be Removed from Netflix.

Did they even ask the opinions of all personalities of one DID patient?

Or did they assume their positions about the movie?

Modern equivalent of book burners. And that's only because no one reads anymore..



Quote:
Colored people don’t like Little Black Sambo. Burn it. White people don’t feel good about Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Burn it. Someone’s written a book on tobacco and cancer of the lungs? The cigarette people are weeping? Burn the book.

If you don’t want a house built, hide the nails and wood. If you don’t want a man unhappy politically, don’t give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none.

So now do you see why books are hated and feared? They show the pores in the face of life. The comfortable people want only wax moon faces, poreless, hairless, expressionless.

There you have it, Montag. It didn’t come from the Government down. There was no dictum, no declaration, no censorship, to start with, no! Technology, mass exploitation, and minority pressure carried the trick, thank God. Today, thanks to them, you can stay happy all the time, you are allowed to read comics, the good old confessions, or trade journals.

Lulz, the film is widely available 2 clicks away to be acquired both legally and illegally, it's not going anywhere no matter what Netflix decides to do.

The hyperbole of "they are literally burning our films" is as bad as the hyperbole of "this film needs to be removed".


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."

Nah... I give it 3 years. Profits >>> political correctness.

Fahrenheit 451


The book reads as if it were written today, almost scary. Highly recommended.

In the Fahrenheit distopia, there are also no camera's or government control. No big brother is required, when everyone is quick to get offended by every little thing and is willing to rat out others who don't follow the 'right path'.
We're not at that point, yet, but Twitter witch huntings are coming close.


There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.
Truly gone fishing.

This is the same argument as "Move to another platform or create your own!" when someone gets deplatformed from Youtube/Reddit/Twitter/FB ... just so ignorant. And that is not a word I generally use.

Wouldn't be so sure.
Profits do matter, but a lot of cancel culture assholes can bring a network to its knees. Police to its knees. Politicians to its knees. Profit doesnt matter if theres a whiff of racism. You can lose much much more than 80 mil you spent on one show thatll fail. You gotta understand it's a vocal minority and a few months ago they didnt actually matter. Now they do. Significantly.

Trump is gonna lose the election.
If he were to win 3 year projection is accurate.
Cancel culture is going to win the election and so will Joe ByeDon. Trump wins there might be a civil war as people will not accept him winning and the country, government does not want that. Neither does trump. Hes a troll but hes not an idiot. Biden wins everyone is redeemed, progressives get what they want. Country will be in ruin. Hollywood will continue appeasing a vocal minority in fear of being cancelled. Until it gets so bad.

It takes one stick of dynamite to reshape a landscape, but it can take years to actually repair it into something sustainable.
