To be fair, cuties had a lot of controversy around it too. As with such matters, that's long forgotten in the world of twitter and people have moved on to the next thing.
This too will pass.
- m0zg 5y agoNo "walkouts" or resignations though. I did cancel my Netflix membership - I can't and won't support normalization of pedophilia.
- Gortal278 5y agoDid you watch the movie? Or cancel based on headline reading/twitter comments?
- stjohnswarts 5y agoexactly, I watched enough to know it wasn't my cup of tea, but I don't think there was anything in there that was going to cause a wave of pedophilia like the pearl clutchers thought.
- m0zg 5y agoI don't need to watch 11 year old girls crotches to find sexualization of prepubescent children strongly objectionable.
- dragonwriter 5y agoIf you haven't watched it, on what basis do you assert that the characterization of it as “sexualization of prepubescent children” is at all valid? I haven't watched it, and have no specific opinion, but I certainly do know that many times when I’ve seen characterization of objectionable content in media it wasn't supported by a reasonable viewing of the media.
- smegcicle 5y agoyou don't have to have watched it to see how it was marketed 'preteen sexual exploration' doesn't need to be a socially acceptable form of entertainment
- m0zg 5y agoWhat do you think of child pornography, and have you watched any of it to make sure it's objectionable for you? Or were verbal descriptions enough for you to make up your mind?
- SuoDuanDao 5y agoI kind of got the impression the 'cuties' outrage was stealth marketing. I wonder whether this is something similar. Until I saw this story I didn't know Chapelle had a new special out, maybe this is exactly what's desired.
- stjohnswarts 5y agoThat was mostly from the right though. Everyone knows they'll move on to the next thing quickly unlike slacktivists who will take on something and hold on to something until twitter stops giving them any feedback.
