GustoferI didn't realize how bad the wokeness had gotten
I rarely watch network television these days, but had my DirecTV box set to DVR the shows LaBrea and Quantum Leap. I kind of dig time travel shows/movies and when these first started, they were just OK, so I had them programmed to record.
The other night, I was looking for something to watch and the rest of the menu came up devoid of anything worthwhile, so I looked to the DVR. Wow...
One of the lead characters on LaBrea, a teenaged girl, is apparently now a lesbian. Who knew?
And the Quantum Leap episode, involving three sisters searching for lost treasure? Well, one of the sisters just had to come out as "non-binary".
Jesus H. Christ on a bicycle! Can this shit end already?

What will it take to get our country and our culture back?

mark123Yeah, the wife and I liked the first version of Quantum Leap but the new version is trash. We tried it though. Transgender this and homosexual that. If it weren't EVERY episode, we may have stuck past episode 3. It's just garbage. If you have to forcibly normalize something then it ain't normal.

PASigEven the new Star Trek series Discovery has one of these confused non-binary types.
It’s all just so trendy, that’s all it is. Someday this trend will be over and it won’t be cool to be this anymore and it will go away.
A couple months ago the wife and I went to go see My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 and of course they have to be shoving this non-binary shit down our throats there as well.

The first Big Fat Greek Wedding did exceptionally well at the box office and was actually a good movie, the second one was OK but this third one was a steaming pile of poo and I heard it completely bombed and I’m glad.

It's on almost EVERY show now.
Sometimes it's just the bi-racial couple or a character mentioning (for no apparent reason) something about their homo-partner.
Very tiresome and just makes it more abnormal, IMO.

I assume this is spearheaded by BlackRock and their woke-scoreboard.

This is EXACTLY how the Left "normalizes" this deviant, amoral behavior.

henryaz I see more and more inquiring about one's preferred pronoun. "None" is a pronoun, so that is what I put down if asked. Sometimes I wonder if the left ever gets any sleep.

dgshooterI started watching Alexander on Netflix. After about 10 minutes he started making out with his "best friend". Turned the channel.

And let’s not forget about commercials too.

Yup, definitely Blackrock. They just threaten every company they have money into and tell them it’s this or we pull out. Just like the got damn mafia. Do what we say or else.
At least Netflix said fuck that. They realized all this shit was costing them too much money so they changed lanes. Others are hell bent on failure and alienating customers.

Who wants to tell him?

pedropcolaDoesn’t matter. It still isn’t necessary to be explicit about it. His sexual inclinations aren’t the story most people come to watch.
I enjoyed Season 1 of Resident Alien. Season 2 is nearly unwatchable due to this. They are very nearly just running down a list of social issues that they think are important and shoe horning them into the plot. Does it make sense, does it improve the story? Nope and nope. Made it basically impossible to enjoy. Horrendous screen writing. The gay Indian character was the final straw for me. Why?

0-0My memory was kind enough to erase most traces of it but i remember trying to watch a recent film or series where the British Royal family was composed of members of different races and colors.
Didn’t make any sense and my intelligence couldn’t make heads or tails of it. Not only confusing but also exasperating.
Woke politics are not a concern this far south but are being swiftly spoon fed to us without most being aware of it.
