Had a couple of family members complaining about how movies and videos games suck these days because "you have to get representation everywhere". Sometimes I think that these people are extremely online and don't really go about saying shit like this in public, but then I realize just how many people in around me say shit like this all the time and it fucking sucksdoomer

It's pretty fun and occasionally productive to needle them about why they feel that way. Pretend to be neutrally curious.

the socratic method is honestly more effective than lecturing if youre on at least decent terms with the other person

It’s people’s capacity for the repetitive that gets me. They want the same characters, that always look the same as each other, that always do the same thing everytime . Sci-fi has to be the same 1940s serial done all over. Again and again but photorealistic.
