Yeah. It was pretty great for a long time. I notice now that Youtube is becoming very obnoxious with so many professional vloggers and the algorithms that feed them to you.

I binge-watched Star Trek: Strange New Worlds on YouTube yesterday, all ten episodes of the first season. Not bad! 🖖

Yeah, like a prequel, with Captain Pike in command. Kirk did show up in one of the episodes, though. I'm looking forward to season 2. 🖖

What the fuck is wokeism? Are you talking about faux-woke people who pay lip service to the talking points to get clicks, and then move on to the next piece of clickbait? Or perhaps you're one of those people who thinks being asked not to be a racist or transphobic fuckhead is lItErAlLy NiNtEeN-eIgHtY-fOuR.

I mean more the case of being so self aware that watching Seinfeld is offensive, since socialists have this gift that they suck the fun out of things, while Conservatives are the turds. The ones that are pro hate groups obviously

But this is why Joseph McCarthy is a hero in my view. Imagine dozens of movies like "Salt of the earth 1954" movies, all about their miseries on screen. GOOD GOD that would be so boring. So i am glad USA got 60 years of socialist free entertainment, before now i guess it would be a lil bit authoritarian to do so i guess

Or its just more random crap. Some people need to be reassured they're actually alive.

Yeah, other people's problems and social injustice and inequality are pretty boring. Why can't they just eat cake?
