Agreed. Early on that card was so powerful that people legitimately played it defending Ghostbusters 2016. "You only hate it because it stars women." When like, no, it's just a movie that sucks.

And a lot of the arguments never made sense, like "men dislike strong female characters", and like T2, Aliens are super beloved and always have been. Mad Max came out in 2015, and the same people who got called "people who hate strong female characters" from 2016-2021 loved that movie.

Some of this woke shit was honestly just brands realizing they could be lazier if they tried to turn criticisms against them into political nonsense. Sure Disney filmed near like a Chinese concentration cap for Mulan, but she's a girlboss now with no weaknesses, so if you dislike the movie you are a bigot!

It's ridiculous that it ever kind of worked. But I'm glad it's just about done.
