Anecdote; I’ve had family and friends cancel Netflix when their old favorites got pulled.
People that are center of the road politically, and very nostalgia/tradition driven. It seems reasonable to me that type of person makes up a pretty large portion of the population (I grew up in the Midwest and feel that basically describes the region pretty well, accepting it’s just my gut sense.)
Our brains like routine. That routine can be chasing novel experience or sitting still clinging to nostalgia. Seems pretty clear from the news the majority fall into the latter group.
- b_tterc_p 7y agoForgetting any particular political whatever, it seems odd to define someone who favors tradition / nostalgia as anything but conservative. Although perhaps current conservatives have kind of co-opted the term to mean something very different. The idea of preferring shows you have already seen is unthinkable to me.
