Between trying to suss if Adam Baldwin is still a transphobe, and that thing on Bluesky last night that basically said the show was gutter trash from top to bottom, fifty-six-year-old me just doesn’t have the regulatory stamina. Maybe if folks merely disliked the thing. But there’s such vehemence, bordering on “if you found any value there, you’re a terrible person”, and I just don’t have the fortitude to deal.
This is one of the huge problems I have with social media. There is no reason to be making value judgements about someone’s character because of some TV show (or other entertainment media) they like. That behavior on social media is one of several reasons I think it’s toxic AF and keep leaving after multiple attempts of trying out Mastodon and Bluesky. There are people out there who would claim it’s not toxic. They are wrong. I keep hoping that I’m wrong. I am not.
