My point is that the problem with Netflix has nothing to do with content, and everything to do with mismanagement.
I'm really sorry about your whitewashing narratives (or whatever) but you're either deliberately missing my point and/or trying to hand-wave away from it. If it's the latter, I do not appreciate that.
Thanks.

- rnd0 5y agoFirst off, brownwashing isn't a thing -I dismiss people who believe in zombies too. I don't have a lot of time or sympathy for people who are upset that fictional characters are no longer portrayed as being of the dominant race. I mean, there are criticisms to be made about tampering with IP for the sake of sales (https://www.cnet.com/culture/entertainment/features/marvel-is-censoring-films-for-china-and-you-probably-didnt-even-notice/ https://www.cnet.com/culture/entertainment/features/marvel-i... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_of_LGBT_issues https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_of_LGBT_issues) but a lot of those decisions often boil down to simple economics (China is a larger audience and the studios cater to that market) but when it starts veering into "$X will not replace us" territory I can't take the complaints seriously -I'm sorry. I have a hard time believing that the people who do object to the progressive content are the reason for this. They may be a contributing factor but I'm honestly skeptical that the numbers who drop it for that specific reason are signifigant. Honestly what I have seen here and on reddit etc are more neutral complaints -about service, about series getting canceled, etc.
