Gotta love people losing their minds and acting like NETFLIX is making changes to Roald Dahl's books because of "wokeness" or something, rather than as a way to squeeze a few extra dollars out of an old IP.
Gigantic companies don't do things because they're "woke." They do things because they think it will help them increase their profits. That's it. No one was running around demanding they change Roald Dahl's books. It was Netflix (which owns the Roald Dahl Story Company) trying to figure out how to boost profits.
@parkermolloy the irony is that conservatives are constantly trying to change and censor fictional stories based on their alleged offensiveness. And unlike the left, who is merely pointing out problematic themes and urging people to consider new angles, the right is using actual government power to stifle shit they don't like.
@unabogie@parkermolloy hell, conservatives are constantly trying to change non-fictional stories because of their alleged offensiveness (makes white people uncomfortable)
