I dont even like Trump, but they are so moronically trump-hating that i cannot use this website anymore. Its just redundant and SJW-liberal-y and annoying as fuck. The same applies for most media-related websites that i know of.
anyone feel the same?

How do you think Trump got elected genius?
yeah no shit, but just the fact that they keep bitching about every single thing and shitting on anyone who expresses an even remotely moderate attitude, even in the reviews and in their fucking everything, its just stale and continuously proves that all of their writers are regressively liberal dumbasses
What do you expect from college students who studied journalism?
Why would you use it to begin with? Why are people so obsessed with film school failure internet opinions?
Why are you so up in arms about the political articles on a website about media properties?
Also
>I don't even like Trump
Yeah, okay kid, go back to Sup Forums
touché, but i like these kinds of websites to get caught up on current whatevers in media and movieland and shit. avclub is just an example. the same retardation applies to pretty much all of them
>hate "leftist" SJW shit
>vote for corporate asshole who has fucked over people to make money
Totally makes sense. It can't be cause of the opposition got hacked thus revealing normal politician shit (which apparently is news to anyone under 25), Sandersfags being salty, and hicks tired of 2 terms of a democrat. Nope, must be cause of SJWs.
currently, theres like 8 articles bitching about trump on their front-page
avclub.com
thats the article that made me lose it and decide not to use the website anymore
Most of there movie reviews are kind of bad.
Lol who fucking cares? Drumpf and his retarded supporters are a bunch of losers. It's better that a website is against them then for them
Sanders fags are worse than trump and hill shills combined.
you can like & not like him, but to just continously bitchwhine and perpetually seek opportunities to shit on him and everyone who expresses an even remotely moderate opinion about him is just anti-intellectual and obnoxious
i thought at first that the reason why EVERYONE who works at websites like these hates him is because of some agenda, but im starting to think its just because theyre a bunch of naive, idealistic liberal dumbfucks
(ill clarify again: i dont like trump, but i dont see a reason to obsess over him constantly. like, who gives a shit)
>(ill clarify again: i dont like trump, but i dont see a reason to obsess over him constantly. like, who gives a shit)
They're triggered. The same way trump poster continues here.
>you don't hate Drumpf sobyou must like him
You the exact type of retard he's talking about.
so just... from now on, all media-journalists are fuckheads? from now on, only people with a certain political perspective (the, in my opinion, regressive one, but thats besides the point) can read about media-related news without feeling like it sucks? that kinda drastically perpetuates the ideological split occurring in the US.
Absolutely, now every article on Salon is about Trump, the site is unusable even for the tiny percentage of worthwhile content.
Naw. People voted out of spite because Leftists are so faggy.
>Not even a Trump supporter, but blah blah blah KEK blah blah SJW blah blah blah LIBTARD blah blah blah let's give Trump a chance
every time
Yes of course it does. The Democrats would rather America descend into ungovernable anarchy than prosper under the Republicans, because none of the bad shit that would happen, or the bad shit they themselves have caused, hurts them personally.
>strawman
Why do libtards project so much and can't make logical arguments? Is it the low test?
you can hate SJWs and regressive ideologies and ALSO hate trump. i think trump is an anti-intellectual moron who is frighteningly anti-science. but i dont need every website i visit thats about videogames or movies or whatever to constantly bitch about him & anyone he associates with in a non-constructive & whiny manner
Have you drumpf losers got nothing to do all day? Just sit around and make pointless fucking threads like this. Holy shit get a life
>he was still reading AV Club
>in 2017
How about the fact that they have interns shitting out film analyses that frequently contradict the content of the actual movies, ya faggot
In reality, Trump is the President, he isn't going to be killed, or drop dead, or step aside to let Hillary be inaugurated in a surprise twist, and he will be President for four years, and without any significant opponents save those within his own party for two of those years, because the American people voted Republican for every branch. At the moment, the left are like children saying they'll stay mad forever, never come out of their rooms again, and never let themselves calm down or get over anything. Eventually, you have to deal with the real world, which does not always give you what you want.
>muh science
Science has become the new religion for useful idiots. Prove to me scientifically (with real evidence, not opinions from "scientists") that Trump is anti-science. You can't cuck.
you really want the world to be black & white, dont you? typical christian
yeah so thanks for that
which websites about movies and tv CAN i still use then?
You could try fucking off to Breitbart
he said global warming was made up by the chinese
maybe saying hes "anti science" is an exaggeration, but anyway, thats not what this discussion is about
see, im talking about something that isnt even about politics. people dont go to websites like the avclub to read about how all the liberal morons who work there hate trump so much they sound like angry 16 year olds. they go to websites like that to read about movies n shit
Sup Forums
The websites and blogs of professional critics, and SOME academic journal sites. Everything else is 100% futile. Me, I read a handful of individual critics whose tastes are close enough to my own that I can make a fair estimate of whether a film will appeal to me or not, and ignore the rest.
>like who
Global warming was promoted FOR the Chinese, but they didn't invent it. Gore doing a sequel to An Inconvenient Truth now his party is back out of power raaaaather let the cat out of the bag. See also Greg "early 2001" Palast coming back with the same narrative with different names to deny that Republicans can legitimately win elections.
get some perspective. like most of the internet they're just a bunch of smug douches who like to smoke pot and listen to nigger music and want universal healthcare, not "sjws" or genuine progressives of any kind. any time there's a story about native americans or Asian women getting shit on it's a bunch of the same WELL ACTUALLY shit you see here. they're just more hypocritical about it.
they obsess over Trump because he's such an easy extreme to set themselves against. no need for introspection
...
>americans actually believe this
Holy shit
You have to find the critics whose tastes chime with your own.
>brainlets will defend this turbobrainlet
Just conservatives
wat
hahah
Not American.
That's nothing. Try being an aspiring filmmaker who's not a regressive leftist. It's basically like a non-Muslim trying to enter Mecca.
That's what's getting hits these days, man. It's all about the ad revenue.
examples
So just retarded then?
Look up a movie on MRQE. Note which reviews are written for newspapers or print magazines. Note who wrote them. Read those people, see which suit your taste, follow their writing.
Or maybe you're just a shit filmmaker.
>all the liberal morons who work there hate trump so much they sound like angry 16 year olds
Oh my God please fuck off. Your Trump is a moron. Get over it. The nation is about to have it's first democratically elected demagogue tomorrow and you act shocked that people are angry and care. You accuse others of "black and white thinking" but anyone who talks about Trump is an angry dumb liberal sixteen year old. Wrong! Apologize! You fucking idiot!
That's because no one wants to watch your deluded right wing drivel
Or you could just watch movies and form your own opinions.
No, just basically attentive. Global warming wasn't invented, but it was promoted, this seems obvious. Once the Chinese made it clear they wouldn't be signing any treaties about it, the issue was dropped. Obama barely mentioned it. If it's really as imminently near crisis as was made out, the diplomatic awkwardness would not have been an issue, but instead America kept cosying up to China and keeping quiet about it. Now it's Trump's mess to handle, they're back to talking about it.
>*makes smug liberal current year face*
Posting Trump's belief and thinking that's argument enough that he's wrong is exactly why people think leftist "science" is dog shit.
I can, but the person I'm replying to wants suggestions of places to read reviews other than the likes of the AV Club.
gr8 b8 m8 i r8 8/8.
Try Slant, though they are up there own asses themselves
let me just say this once more: i also think trump is a moron. i dont like him, but i dont need every media-related website constantly slandering him and anyone who DOESNT hate him. i dont go to those websites to read about "politics" (its not even politics, its like tabloid media at this point) whining
also, my criticism of the avclub applies to a lot more, like pretty much every political satirist/comedian in the US. the only one who doesnt seem to be 24-7 complete on about how much trump hurts his feelings is Bill Maher
I don't even know how to respond to this. Complete nonsense. You drumpf retards need to get an education or something. Embarrassing.
Just lie.
>I would love it if the Dems and GOP managed to get together and work to find smart ways to grow the country together. Unfortunately, the GOP wants to kill the Democrats and the Democrats haven't fully figured that out just yet.
Man, the site used to be chill with a cool userbase... what happened? Still, at least it's fun seeing (((liberals))) lose their shit after posting moderate comments that can't get you banned
>global warming/climate change was dropped
Where have you been and what is the rent there? It's been a fucking headline for nearly 20 years.
I wish I could tell every liberal celebrity to throw themselves off a tall building.
>leftist "science"
I think I may have already spoken with you on Sup Forums
>rigging your own primary is just "normal politician shit"
I genuinely fear for your country's future, I'm so glad the republicans won simply because democrats have absolutely no spine and never stand up to their own politicians, ever. The democrats can literally rig their own primary to fuck over their own base and they'll fucking defend it, they're that pathetic.
>I dont even like Trump, but
No, you fuck, that's exactly the opposite of what I've been telling him, which is that online outlets are universally shit-tier and not worth looking at. Newspapers, print journals, academic journals - that's IT for film criticism, and even then, only a small fraction will be useful to any one reader.
What? People shat all over Obama when he was elected the first time, and somewhat over the second time. Granted it was contrarian to be left-leaning during the Bush II years on Sup Forums, but the hate irl was still there. It took literal years for people to get over accusing him of being a muslim and showing his birth certificate. Don't expect anti-Trump hate to get over so soon. This makes Obama's hate seem like nothing, cause it also has that Florida votes during the 2000 election vibe, and from what Trump is doing filling his administration, it'll get worse.
About the only good things in the coming 4 years is music not being shit (angst brings about good music, see early 2000s and the 80s, early 90s) and Sup Forums turning leftist again. Man I miss 2008 Sup Forums. Who would have thought a site full of weaboos, animefags, nerds, geeks, and general school losers would back right-wing shit? I know I couldn't have guessed it.
You should stop reading the AV Club because the writers constantly misinterpret whatever theyre reviewing
I wish every drumpf retard like you would kill themselves. We might be able to progress as a country again like under Obama
>it was contrarian to be left-leaning during the Bush II years on Sup Forums
wut
>I'm so glad the republicans won simply because democrats have absolutely no spine and never stand up to their own politicians, ever.
See, that's where you're wrong. The Dems cater to the far left, pushing center and center-left elsewhere. It's the Dem. Party that needs to stand up to the vocal SJW crowd and tell them to calm down.
We can only hope some SJWs try to kill the faggot like that guy tried to do to Reagan. Godspeed, you martyr bastard. The sooner the better.
It's not been a top headline since China no-sold it. You've been alive during this period, you surely noticed that it was massively important stuff, then much less important.
>this image
Aren't they right though? They called you a bunch of libtards for years on end and then they won control of every branch of government at the federal level as well as the majority of state legislatures. They won cuck
Has he denied global warming since 2014? I think he just doesn't want to focus on it and has more pressing concerns.
If electing a fucking imbecile as president counts as 'winning' then yeh
Haha yea you don't know. So you resort to insult and ridicule. How typical.
>can't come up with their own memes so they just copy their opponents
Sad.
History said it was statistically likely to turn red. Look at the presidents elected over time for like the last 90 years. Red and then blue, and vice versa, every 8-12 years. I personally didn't expect the corporate loudmouth to win though, I blame Sandersfags.
Yeah. it's not like there are G-summits every year and whole news cycles dedicated to wasted .gov dollars on solar windmills.
You are full of shit. It took a backseat to terrorism, but it was still certainly making headlines with every mild winter and hot summer.
>People shat all over Obama when he was elected the first time
What like when he was given the nobel peace prize? When the media endlessly fawned over him rather then calling him a neo-nazi child rapist russian agent? What in the fuck are you talking about, was 2008 really that long ago?
I legitimately cannot comprehend people unironically liking Trump. I don't go to A.V. but I don't see how anyone could legitimately be not overtly Trump hating if they are remotely political.
What's there to argue against? Nonsense and propaganda? Yeh no thanks. I know you're a fucking retard no need for you to prove it even more
Sanders is literally the Trump of the left.
The 'Florida votes during the 2000 election vibe' is what makes it so impotent and futile. That lie was dropped after Kerry lost in 2004, remember? All the Democrats are achieving by this is guaranteeing that they have nothing to say to normal people during the first term of Trump.
Your simplistic understanding of politics is more 2000 than even 2008, and you're mistaken - conservative and libertarian views are likely among individualists aware of their status as members of cultural/intellectual minorities.
>implying winning an election is the same thing as being correct
You're completely wrong, the democrats are a complete sell out party that uses idiots like the sjws as a fig leaf to convince people that they're still left wing as opposed to money wing. The sjws are the useful idiots, not the leadership, just look at the actual policies the democrats try to put in place: corporatist healthcare, no civil rights and bombing every brown person they can find. Does that really sound like sjws to you?
1. I don't hope for that kind of anarchy, no, and nor would you if you really thought about it.
2. Why are you referring to SJWs as if you weren't one?
>does winning an election count as winning
Yes, yes it does.
Sup Forums was literally never left-wing, and I doubt this will change in the coming decade or two.
Also all the explicit anti-trump music is just fucking shit. It already feels stale even though he isn't president yet. The problem with political stuff (specially now with the internet being so huge) is that for every point a songwriter is trying to make you can already think of a dozen counter-arguments to it, or realise what the lyrics are ignoring to bring the point across. Not many people who craft good music have time to autistically read dozens of articles every week and form an informed opinion. So instead of good political insight we get idiots peddling teenager-tier talking points about unity and stopping hate, which is such superficial shit that I feel dumber just from listening to it.
It took a backseat to everything, it's over. Of course politicians pay themselves to attend meetings about it, but the wasted money is the only specific story you can remember recently for a reason.
How is it rigging to back someone you think will win, against one you think won't? Do you even understand US politics a tiny bit? Sandersfags were predominately under 25, which is the least likely age group that will show up to the voting booths. Sanders ran on a straight-up socialist platform, and everyone knows Obama didn't do shit, it didn't take a nerd to see Sanders would be ineffectual. So as the DNC, would you back the woman who would get women votes automatically and would also bring latinos, AND has experience and the know-how to bavigate politics, or would you back the guy who promises change (like the last ineffectual guy) and whom kids like? Also note that the people backing them are from the old days and believe in party loyalty, and to whom socialist things still sound like USSR drivel. There's no question to be had.
All we're talking about here is winning elections. What's correct is unknowable.
This is it. Hillary was the one who had probability against her, because after 8 years, usually, America votes for the other side.
But isn't global warming meant to be a more serious issue then terrorism? I want to believe this global warming stuff but it really seems like the people pushing it don't really believe it. Why isn't there more talk about the emmissions in china when that's where most goods are produced now, why this fixation on solely domestic emissions? Why does nobody ever bring up nuclear power and just fixate on solar, isn't reducing carbon emissions a more pressing concern then getting off non-renewable energy sources? Why are those two issues always treated as the same thing? It's maddening how fucking stupid the modern environmentalist movement is, I don't blame people for just not believing them most of what they say is bullshit.
Indeed. We're now at the point where young people are too sophisticated for the protest song as a medium.
I'm just saying that winning an election is the same as winning election, regardless of what your opposition things of the candidate you ran. You're literally making things up at this point, are you really this butthurt over losing the election still? This is pathetic, you lost, get over it.
In the case of science, correctness (truth) is discovered through experimentation and evidence. Tell me what party has been consistently anti-science?
They would be more likely to turn up if actual change was on the table, which it was with Sanders.
You really think anyone cares about bombing brown folks?
And yes, corporate healthcare and no civil rights are exactly what SJWs want. As long as it's out of their hands, it's fine.
SJWs are not in the mid-tier income level or above that are hurt by Obamacare, so they don't care. They're the group covered by Medicare expansion.
Civil rights? You mean the group that advocates chucking due process in rape cases and wants speech suppressed?
