Big Bang Theory is a terrible show.

It’s not because of “nerd blackface.” Fuck you :reddit-logo: for making that the presumed reason for anyone to dislike that show.

It’s a misogynistic, cryptoracist, ignorantly ableist (setting back public understanding of autism by years) and lowkey homophobic unfunny mess that is written like the script was printed on plastic sheets made from melted down Funko Pops. Also, the :my-hero: worship is insufferable.

    The tough part I guess is convincing them that Republicans including Trump are complicit in those same evil deeds.

    The real problem with this kind of person is that they refuse to accept that this is just what America always was. The freedoms that it was ostensibly founded on were only ever actually supposed to be for it’s most wealthy & established participants.

      Yep. I agree 100%. Chuds have a deep emotional attachment to a fantasy of America that has only ever existed in their heads. Breaking this fantasy, which is such a key part of their identity and how they see the world, would be very difficult.
