Anyone else feel like Leftist theory has ruined their entertainment? I can't enjoy a movie, book, or television program anymore without immediately being suspicious of the underlying ideology and usually concluding it's some status quo promoting capitalist piece of garbage.

I'm still able to enjoy choons.

I know what you're saying, I can't fap to porn anymore knowing that the actors probably haven't read Bordiga.

I can't enjoy anything and I haven't even read theory I'm just depressed

Sasha Grey has mostly certainly read Bordiga.

I tend to blame Major Depressive Disorder instead, tho I suppose it's probably correlated with Leftism.

No i still enjoy stuff, especially all marvel tv series.
Propaganda exists everywhere in tv/holywood, literally made for propaganda so you cant really escape it.

Just enjoy the story

this.

I guess I'll have to use my imagination

"Major depressive disorder" is the most spooked concept I have ever heard in my entire existence

And what about persistent depressive disorder, seasonal depression, and psychotic depression?

fuck you

All you have to do is this, comrade. Does the piece of media in question created for profit or owned by a capitalist? If yes, don't ever watch it.

I'm pretty good at just ignoring it at this point. Most of life is promoting that shit so I can usually ignore it while watching stuff providing it's not absolutely pushing that shit down your throat.

Occasionally I'll notice something and be mildly displeased but thats about it.

Suit yourself m8

On top for the thread, I've noticed a lot of it and it's made me enjoy a lot of media less, yes, but at the same time there's not a complete lack of media that has ideology I like. New Vegas has the independent ending, and this webm exists.

What about obsessive compulsive disorder, agoraphobia, social phobia, depersonalization disorder, dissociative identity disorder, the autism spectrum, panic disorders, schizophrenia, schizotypal, schizoaffective, bipolar, alzheimer's?
These are all well documented things.

...

On a related note it was the contempt the porn industry porky has for you that turned me off on it. Hedges spends a good deal of this book talking to them and with porn stars and it is very clear that they think the people who consume their products are fucking losers and scum

I think i am better off without any of that actually. With some things you can just feel the porcine decay tbh.

Yeah, but that 2D though.

leftist theory is paranoia deeper, wider and more contorted than the most paranoid aspect of anti-semitism, it is total

And the worst part is that it's true.

wheew

totalitarianism

Who said that? No one is free from ideology.

Maybe read a book at some point.

All media, at least all mainstream media, is owned by the Bourgeoisie, their small concessions towards what one may interpret as leftism displays the wiggle room of the politics of the Bourgeoisie. They play both sides.

No. I think everyone has ideology and everyone puts it into the things they make. It influences their daily lives.

I'm surprised you're this ignorant. Do you not understand how ideas work?

This though. It's like a domestic abuse case where both people believe the justifications.

Not really. I went and watched American Sniper and still managed to enjoy it – I mean, its a jingoistic piece of garbage propaganda, but that didn't stop me from laughing my ass off at all the hyper pseudo-patriotism on display by Mr. Cooper.


I get you but I always have had a deep suspicion that the people who are so publicly against porn are just trying to mask their own sexual frustration. I feel like shit for watching porn sometimes but other times I'm just way too horny and dating is way too expensive and time consuming in this 100 mph capitalist system we are stuck in. It's kind of a catch 22 for me. I want a gf but that shit is exhausting and I'm indecisive about whether or not I really want/need one. So porn has always been an easy "fix"

Go watch some Soviet films. Some of them were really good.

I always liked Ceasers ending the most he seemed like a Marxist with the whole "it's not personal vendetta but Hegelian Dialectics" quote

lmao

my hatred for blockbuster movies is actually what turned me into a socialist so I'm a bit better off. but it's true that even the small enjoyment I used to derive from watching them is gone completely. honestly i would prefer to go back to when I didn't know about these things. I want to take the glasses off

No, I ain't autistic enough to mix politics in everything.

Born is unironically terribly exploitave and has been ruined for me
