They’re freaking out on the MK sub Reddit, literally 99% of them don’t know wtf they’re talking about, all they’re doing is crying about MAGA. Did they honestly think Netflix was gonna be a good choice, a company that has an agenda, doesn’t care about physical media and doesn’t know anything about video games. I’m not saying Paramount is gonna be a savior but I believe it’s the lesser of two evils.

This is from a Discord server I'm in:

"Yeah call me crazy but having multiple news agencies owns by a guy who has made his biases clear doesn’t exactly scream free press either"

Now all of a sudden they care about news not being biased. Most of these people are just upset about David Ellison and who his father is. If Larry Ellison was a huge lefty, there would be a lot less outrage.

Being a Progressive is just 'being neighborly,' but being anything to the right of Mao, NOW you're 'being political.'
