im taking media away from some of u guys until you can pass a 6th grade literary analysis test
you guys think im fucking joking but im not. i cannot deal with another second of people complaining about stories “glorifying” their subject matter just because no one turned to the camera and said, “hey guys, just so you know, this thing is Bad and Not Good, and this story is about Why it is Bad and Not Good.”
i say this with love in my heart. But i genuinely do believe some of you on this horrid webbedsite are so used to only consuming media that explicitly tells you what you are supposed to take away from it (i.e. children’s media) that youve lost the ability to examine media beyond a surface level
this is not to say that children’s media is bad. or that adults can’t enjoy it. i’m an adult, i love cartoons, and i probably always will. but if all you are consuming is tv shows made to teach children about kindness, you are going to rot your brain
If ur annoying on this post you will owe me 300USD
Discussion questions:
1) When OP says “I’m taking media away from some of you guys until you can pass a 6th grade literary analysis test,” this is an example of a rhetorical device. Which rhetorical device is an example of? Is it effective? Why or why not?
2) Why might OP only mention the website he is posting on? Does this mean he thinks every other website is without these issues, or is it in order to make it relevant to the viewers?
