RE: Why the hate for television is misplaced

in #anonymous7 years ago

hey, found you through our feminist Facebook group. so glad to see another anarchist who enjoys fiction entertainment. I tend to feel like a bad anarchist when I watch a dang sitcom or binge netflix! I too apply a discerning eye and prefer books, but the stereotypical, "the only tv show I watch is Mr. Robot." as a qualifier for being an anarchist has got to go. if not my eyes will roll straight out of my head!

Hey! sorry it took so long to get back to you, haven't been on. I so know what you mean. I tried Mr. Robot out but it came off very anti-capitalist (moreso than anti-government) and trying-too-hard for my liking. Not a bad show but, I can find anarchist undertones in lots of things I watch, as well as ethics and just generally interesting ideas. Bring on the sitcoms!
