I was just trying to explain the situation to Nanis. Don't know if you have him ignored or whatever. Believe me, when those Nike ads and aftershave ads started leaning more progressive, that's always a good sign. It shows that market research indicates that more and more people support the message those ads are going for. It's not the marketing itself, but what the target audience is. --- Touch fuzzy.

| Inviso 07/23/21 12:19:19 PM #95 | LGBTQ rights are supported by the majority of our population. Corporations, seeing this as a chance to appeal to that majority as potential consumers, go all-out during pride month with flashy displays of support (rainbow flags on social media and whatnot) to let consumers know that they're the "good guys". I don't know exactly how effective it is, but Americans are pretty fucking gullible and naive with regards to marketing. But that's how you can have a dissonance between a corporation supporting LGBTQ rights while simultaneously being extreme assholes on multiple other levels. --- Touch fuzzy. Get fuzzier. Inviso |

| Topic | Have the past six years changed your enjoyment/perception of media? |
| Inviso 07/20/21 9:09:18 AM #65 | I definitely think more critically about copaganda in media nowadays. Like how CBS' (the highest rated of the big three networks) upcoming fall line-up contains twelve different cop or cop-adjacent, hour-long shows, compared to 6 half-hour comedies, two hour-long reality shows, and one courtroom drama (which might be cop-adjacent as well). It also made me think back on media I used to watch. I used to watch CSI for its entire run, and I remembered a storyline in season 7 where a gang of miscreants is going around and beating up tourists (or people they think are tourists) for fun. And one of the characters, Greg (who is, I believe the only character to make it through the series' entire run, since George Eads left before the series finale), comes across one of these gang attacks in-progress. From the audience's perspective, we see Greg witnessing an attack, and if he does not intervene, the victim will likely be murdered. So Greg scares off the gang and is forced to run one member down when that gang member tries to attack him by flinging a rock. And as he's shocked by what he did, the rest of the gang returns, drags him from the car, and beats him within an inch of his life. The gang is eventually caught, but the storyline doesn't end there. A few episodes later, Greg is brought to an inquest for the killing of Demetrius James during the above incident. Throughout the episode, one of the jurors regularly harangues Greg over various aspects of the killing, Greg is accused of having been drunk at the time of the incident...basically, Greg is put through the wringer, only to ultimately have his actions deemed "excusable". We, the audience, see this whole story play out from Greg's perspective. We have perfect hindsight on the incident and know Greg is innocent of any accusations leveled against him. As such, the jury who wants to ensure proper police oversight? The bad guy. The family of the victim? In denial about how evil their son was, and therefore also the bad guy. That whole plot takes an officer-involved-killing and paints it as completely unreasonable to expect oversight, and that anyone who doesn't immediately accept Greg's version of events is just some asshole, trying to make a political statement. At the time it aired, I never thought about any of the implications of that storyline. I just thought that, yes, Greg was right and the "villains" were bad people for trying to smear his good name. I can't think back to that episode now without picturing all the recent events that had negatively-tinged the police across the country. --- Touch fuzzy. Get fuzzier. Inviso |

| Inviso 07/09/21 8:30:45 AM #90 | Let's give some massive props to Vivi for fourth place. He's not FFVII (extremely popular as one of the first big PS1 JRPGs) or FFX (extremely popular despite being garbage as one of the first big PS2 JRPGs). Only top ten character to achieve success because of who he is, rather than the popularity of his game. --- Touch fuzzy. Get fuzzier. Inviso |
