These days, there are billions of TV shows and movies, but every billion of them share a lot in common. Men are the enemy. Whites are the enemy. So combine the two worst characteristics, white and man, into one character and you have yourself a villain. Now just fill the story with diverse women and diverse people that were born withle that never can do wrong and that's everything everywhere.
But what if you don't like that sort of political agenda? What if that kinda annoys you? You might want an option to see something along the lines of your own sensibilities. To that end, here is the list:
#1) Alien. This is weird because it stars a woman, but it's great. It's the tops.
#2) Bull Durham. Also weirdly celebrated by feminists cause it had a strong woman character. Same actress actually.
#3) The Big Sleep. Starring Bogey and the best actress of all time, Lauren Bacall. Great stuff. Written by a Pulitzer Prize winner and Nobel Prize winner.
#4) To Have and Have Not. Written by that aforementioned PP and NP winner, but this one was adapted from the works of a person considered good, Ernest Hemingway.
#5) Bone Tomahawk. Kurt Russel in a western that is considered so stomach-turningly violent, most people won't even watch it.
#6) Star Trek 6, The Undiscovered Country. An example a super ultra woke film that was actually good. They didn't have diverse female characters ninja kicking white men at all.
#7) Das Boot. Best war movie ever made. It should be #1 but I'm too lazy to go back and edit. Zero women characters, so zero opportunity to have women characters jump kicking men. It worked.
#1) Atlas Shrugged, all 3 parts. Written by a woman, this is considered the most anti-woke material ever filmed. It's a breath of fresh air. [Reply]
The Rippaverse is a very interesting thing I'm just now finding out about.

Rippaverse founder Eric July and comic book artist Gabe Abdul Eltaeb joined "Fox & Friends" Thursday, offering insight into their mission and how their first issue, ISOM #1, brought in more than $2 million in presales.
"What I wanted to do was be a part of the solution instead of griping about the problem, so I had the idea, it made sense financially, and it was the perfect time to do it," July told host Brian Kilmeade.
Eltaeb, who was formerly employed by DC Comics, left because the company decided to turn Superman ‘woke’ by removing the slogan "truth, justice, and the American way," but found a new home with Rippaverse.
This article about the success of non-woke media comes only after I created this thread. I read pre-sales are now within 6k of 3 million, so that 2 million figure is already out of date.
ETA: I realize a foxnews link seems very DC esque but that was what came up when I googled. I'm listening to a livestream with Eric July right now and wanted some substantive article to be able to pull from is all. [Reply]

You don't like media? Sorry bud. We're not the target audience anymore
We're not being marginalized. Our voice isn't being suppressed. we simply aren't where the most revenue can be found. Not anymore.
The world has moved on, and if we don't stop crying like victims and asking for special treatment just because we're white dudes, it's gonna leave us behind. Because other people want different things, and there's just plain more of them. We had our day. It's over. We're not special and we're not entitled to anything. We built the world this way and it's silly to complain about it now. Don't like what's on TV or on the radio or on the internet? Turn it off. Find something else.
That's what people who aren't us have always done.

You are foolish. We are getting left behind on purpose and soon to be made second class citizens. [Reply]

LMFAO
100% in favor of leaving *you* behind and being made a second class citizen. Would do you a world of good to experience how the other half lives ala a slumlord being made to live in one of their dogshit rentals. [Reply]

Edgy.
Oh well, the prophets are always ignored until it is too late. [Reply]

Sure, Janx, you can hold her to that. There is only one person in 'human' history that got put to the fire for his beliefs and withstood it and rose from the dead a few days afterward, and that is Jesus.
Did you know that Nietzsche lost his sanity and died in the care of his sister as a mental invalid? The greatest human thinker I've ever encountered in print, tbh. His mind broke when he saw someone beating a horse, so he ran up and wrapped his arms around that horse to save it, said something like "you leave this horse alone", fell down weeping, and he never recovered mentally. That's Friedrich Nietzsche, possibly the smartest philosopher (and philologist) ever to live. He died drooling at the mouth.
They say that he died of syphilis. If you learn any Nietzsche at university, they will tell you he died of undiagnosed syphilis. They say that his last ever works, when he became a Christian, were just nonsense that his devout sister wrote under his name. That's what they say. [Reply]
