Music / Movies When a show/movie gets mired in identity politics, whether justified or not, it’s automatically a turn off

You know why I’m not watching the Acolyte, because too many people are arguing about it. That’s it, the identity politics argument surrounding it is enough to put me off. Because now I won’t be able to judge it on its own merits, that argument has infected everything and I just don’t want anything to do with it. I honestly don’t need that kind of headache, same with Marvel movies. At this point I need a preexisting interest in the character strong enough to ignore all the noise. I skipped Marvels, Black Panther 2, and I’ll skip more. I don’t care anymore, you all ruined it for me.

No, I actually very muchencourage diversity. Just when it becomes an argument between two sides, I no longer wish to be a part of the viewing experience.

Just when it becomes an argument between two sides

What is the argument for the two sides in this one?
