    Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

gen z being pragmatic

There it is again. People acting like genZ are the first to say no and protest to things…. This simply isn’t true.

Genz didn’t invent this idea of protesting it . Women against pornography was formed in the 60s. So we know people have been bothered by it for more than one generation and people have tried to act against it.

I don’t think this should be a generation topic. Film makers are by far and large trying to get people to watch their shit using gags and named actors. they use sex and violence in film like capitalists use sugar and salt in food to get people to consume it. It’s a crutch.

They're not against it it's just so cliche as to be cringe. Genz is not prude...hahaha wow

And you thought that is a new thought that you yourself invented? Maybe you should Crawl out of your own ass.
