Like this is the first time, the last time, or even the best time that this will happen. Because women-hating preaching androphilic testerone bashing flicks have only existed since …

… since the Iliad which has been translated 10 times again the past 20 years.
Fucking SO What ? So what there is a movie that is GO GO Team GIRL RULE BOYZ DROOL.
So ? I do still not feel oppressed by the movie.
Amen. I got sick of him back when he and I were both a lot fucking younger. Just because our politics aren’t super far apart doesn’t mean he isn’t a snide, arrogant little fuck.
Hell, the way he pushes identity politics snidely and arrogantly is part of why I can’t stand him. Like, I wouldn’t wish him harm, but I would be very glad if he retired.
His flexible quickness of wit was incredibly impressive in the ‘80s and early-‘90s.
But, he’s become brittle. You can see it in his interviews and conversations now, where he often makes interlocutors repeat something before understanding it and responding to it, even though it was said clearly.
I suspect he’s lost a few steps and is running mostly on muscle-memory these days. He has lost the flexibility of thinking to make truly insightful jokes; he relies instead of stereotypes and is irritated that those stereotypes are increasingly being rejected by the left.
