Effectively what happened in 2023 is bigger games journalists, ones with real pull and weight, decided they didn’t want to get involved in culture war stuff unless it was from a safe distance. But that’s not really how it works. You don’t choose when the culture war knocks on yr door, it just does

All them people are terminally online. They HAVE to know, at least, his reputation. ATP I'm convinced they have posters disease and think he can't get them or seriously have a humiliation fetish. His attention just sets off their lizard brains like Christmas lights

White people who have spent decades thinking “Born in the USA” is patriotic and “Every Breath You Take” is a great wedding song are suddenly very concerned about not being able to understand lyrics to some songs at the Super Bowl halftime show.

Best thing I'll say about One Battle After Another is
This is what niggas meant by "stay woke" before you fucks do what you do best, steal and flatten language.
