I just think it's a slightly different scenario when it's performance and narratives on the line instead of athletics. Outrage is always going to be dumb (sportsball isn't serious enough to ever get genuinely outraged over), but in the case of sportsball, there are objective-ish claims about fairness and whatnot that can be empirically dismantled. For a performance, it's just a matter of "this isn't the show I want to see," which is a lot harder to change people's minds on because it's completely subjective and unfalsifiable. --- This is my signature.
