I enjoyed it as well, but i also like the horror genre for all its flaws, it had some, but overall it was entertaining and ive honestly enjoyed every single 28 installment so far. I also love every friday the 13th, nightmare on elmstreet, childs play/chucky installment, etc etc. Because even when they are bad, the bad is still entertaining.
Jumping on the hate bandwagon for every single movie or game that comes out, just makes you enjoy life a little less in my opinion. And its only a matter of time when people look back on these movies and realize they were just being harsh because everyone else was.
Same thing with virtually every single franchise saga or trilogy ever made. People shit on them, then years later they get memed, and then they give them a chance and more often than not, enjoy them, without the noise and social pressure to appear like some "superior critic" when they are just somebody who spends all their time scrolling reels for dopamine rather than mining it themselves through the creative process that is creating art itself, and claiming that reward the honourable old fashioned way. Through hard work and dedication to a task or craft.
I work in film, so maybe its the struggle i know that happens behind the scenes that makes me empathize and enjoy the technical aspects others may not understand or know about. But its a good watch, most people only care about the alphas massive fake penis, but it gets the people talking, and it for sure brought people to the seats. Love it or hate it, some makeup SFX artist lovingly sculpted, casted, molded, painted, and mounted that dick onto the actor for weeks or months, and it became the immortal centerpiece of what is already a fantastic example of modern practical art. They filmed it with cellphones for petes sake.
It was well made, haters can suck a big alpha dick for all i care. Kudos to the cast and crew. Maximum profit doesnt equal artistic success. That is solely a personal achievement between the artists, and the artists themselves.
I think thats more likely. Like an influencer saying 67. Didnt invent it so much as just said shit he picked up by hanging out with the local drama kids and their friends. He was just trying to fit in and stay hip for the sake of his art and influence.
I specifically use this platform to fly under the radar, if anyone remembers me. I apologize. Im usually on the toilet waxing bullshit till my leg goes numb.
Nope. You just didn't comprehend what i wrote because your ego and confirmation bias got in the way of your logic. And so, you went hostile and started straw manning.
But i forgive you, reddit coded behaviour takes a while to shake off on lemmy. I wish you the best :)
Can we agree that cigarettes cause cancer, or is that lazy and reductive as well?
Other things cause cancer, sure, but we are talking about cigarettes right now. Because there is a cigarette right in front of us, causing cancer.
Analogies aside. I am talking (again) specifically about what made this article, who perpetuated it, spread it around, and for what reason? The same reason that imperialist fascism, the final evolution of capitalism before it implodes under the illusion of its own "infinite growth and adaptability", did the exact same thing to trans people and neurodivergent people under the nazi regime in the 30's and 40's. Which, if you havent heard about, is back in style in the USA, concentration camps, and all.
This is a snapshot of propaganda with literal context in the photo that dictates exactly what im talking about. And you are out here ignoring analysis that you claim to want, and calling me lazy for pointing it out, giving further breakdown of my analogies, and giving my anecdotal experience of being neurodivergent under the capitalistic system we live in?¿
Pointing this out is not ignoring the history of human cruelty, it gives context as to how human cruelty can create a system that perpetuates it. and what that looks like. And more importantly, if we cant address the flaws of the system we currently live under, then we are doomed to repeat its agonies again, and again, until it consumes us all.
To simplify my statement, while including yours, so we can both go back to our families.
Humans can be big meanie weenies, capitalism rewards meanie weenie behaviour.
My point was that we live under capitalism, therefore this is one way capitalism handles neuro divergence. We can go day and night about what we think or know about other times and systems and how they treated "others" but i was merely pointing out the propaganda that is marketing under capitalism, and how they use it to make us self regulate ourselves out of commonality and acceptance, to save money on the next quarter, at the cost of human life.
Is it just capitalism that alienates and destroys the lives of people who are different? No, absolutely not. However, this specific article is a prime example of how capitalism (today) handles neurodivergence by gaslighting us against our own existence via marketing and propaganda. Corporations hate paying for accomodations, it effects their bottom line. And thats the point i was making. This is how capitalism views us, this is how it handles us, this is how they weaponise our existence, for power and profit.
I understand your point and mostly agree. However i just dont have anecdotal experience living as a herbalist in the darkages, lol. And i dont believe whataboutism addresses the issues we face specifically from the system we live under right now in the present.
I get what they were trying to do with this, but after playing around in the editor for a bit. Its a janky, slow, pos. Just learn a free open source engine.
Autism (neuro divergence in general really) under capitalism, is the engineering equivilent to being a sacrificial gear in a gear box. You have your purpose, you do it well when placed in the proper gear set. But you wear out faster than all the other gears, not because you are a bad gear, but because the system itself was designed to crush you rather than crush the bigger more expensive gears. It was built for their longevity and success, not yours. This is them giving the squeeky wheel or "gear" "the grease" in a fucked up way.
They are trying to gaslight different groups into thinking they are just a regular normal gear, and they need to just work harder, even if it means the gear breaks quicker as a result. We are cheaper to replace than we are to repair, and that is the logic that makes capitalism unworthy of human participation, it is inherently anti human in all spectrums.
