There was always fake feelgood advertising no one cared about but it feels like it's really ramped up in the last few years, which is funny since it's never been easier to call it out as the fake poo poo it is.

Why the hell do they need aprons with pockets? They're just reheating poo poo and slapping it together, not making fine cuisine.

Nick Mullen of all people wrote for that show.

Which confuses the hell out of me cuz "Cumtown" makes fun of this type of poo poo all the time, and Mullen himself has trolled people with these sort of beliefs.
1. money
2. the opportunity to connect with people and write for other shows in the future
3. apparently nick was one of the first people moshe kasher wanted to have as a writer on any show he ended up doing

the only new comedy central shows from this year that haven't followed the woke comedy trend is Detroiters (highly underrated show even though it's not as great in the second half) and Jeff and Some Aliens (pretty crappy). it's like the opposite of 2005, when all their new shows were "don't cut yourself on that edge" poo poo
i'm all for mean-spirited humor as long as it's funny, but "lol straight cis dicks" elicits nothing but an eyeroll and a yawn from me

I do not think that was a joke. I think she was genuinely afraid she would be called out by others for transphobia, and took measures to protect herself.

I'm kinda hoping Cumtown becomes an opie and anthony-like show at this point. The set up they have is too brilliant and I'm worried they'll gently caress it up if Nick Mullen ever gets his own CC show .

So far I've seen celebrities, goons, every news site, thousands of verified twitter randos, and the dictionary take turns swinging at all these frothing mad misogynist nerds angry about the female Dr. Who, but... aside from 5 or 6 twitter trolls (two of which had their tweet deleted faster than I could view the replies) and this guy, I haven't actually seen any of these frothing mad misogynist nerds angry about the female Dr. Who.

I'm starting to think that the massive horde of sexist Dr. Who fanboy geeks that all these people are swinging at isn't actually real and they're all just posturing (and, ironically, working to further enrich a company of sex criminals in the process)

The alternative is the risk that your call out goes viral and you get ostracised by your friends online or even irl, and get doxxed or threatened by psychos until you post a long groveling apology

This happens every time now.

It makes a lot of sense when you realise the whole call-out culture is basically endgame Helldump but with thousands of people and major media institutions. Or Maoist Musical Chairs.

I guess it is incorrect, technically; you have to be tried and sentenced to be a criminal, so most of them are just hosed up perverts and molesters.

It's value isn't the content, it's simply stating the name out loud in order to embarrass liberals who make a big show of pointing out that RT is state-owned.

It sure is easier to indict the BBC when you talk about it like a street gang as opposed to a public service organisation made up of like 50,000 people
