Making a movie by taking advantage of a tragedy in which thousands of people lost their homes and some even their lives is in poor taste. Many of these people are vulnerable and don't have a safety net, they won't be able to rebuild their lives after this.
Remember how The Creator got backlash for using footage of the Beirut explosion?
Art transcends boundaries.
So giving them money to use their burned-out land for like, 3 months, is bad? As has always been the case, "poor taste" is exceedingly impractical and negative for society.
Using real footage of people dying really butts up against the practicality line, but why fake an explosion if it's already recorded? Same with the train crash thing in a similar vein.
What are you talking about? That's not the subject at hand.
Youre right, lets throw away all technology and strip naked because people were abused in the making of them! What a stupid gotcha argument.
They aren't slaves they are independent contractors
Are you wearing magical guilt free clothing that’s better than ours?
Great, very cool. I hope it helped the world in its own way.
Yeah, I’m vegetarian because it helps, but nothing is 100% perfect. I live in China, so for example for me those special clothes you find would actually be more harmful to the environment having them shipped all the way over here.
Ok so why aren't you evangelizing it? I'd buy such a thing.
So you're not a fan of dark humor. That's fine. I wouldn't make assumptions about people making obvious jokes though, were I you.
Good, then stop fucking talking to me and block me. Ie get the fuck away from me.
I notice you didn't respond to my question about why you aren't evangelizing your magical ethical clothes.
As opposed to what you are doing?
