Three points (and a bonus one):
P.S. I was wrong about this being totally worthless and without merit. At some point in time, @Lord Agragax of Lunaxoatl will come by and state something along the lines of "I leave you guys alone for a couple of days and look what happens!"
As long as he doesn't remind me that I could have spent this time on my Lore of Metal Deep Dive (and he wouldn't be wrong)
a bit woke a lot funny.
the thing is it's not making fun of them, this is a legitimate DC comic page. batcow is a real character who lives in a barn out back of Wayne manor and Damián actually became (and still is) a vegetarian.
As the OP and creator of this thread, I'm the only one that can sidestep guesswork and speak to actual intent of its design. @Scalenex is correct in his assessment. This thread was created to serve as a collection of material, updates and discussion AGAINST woke bull*#$% in Hollywood. There are already a large number of debate-orientated threads available, or a new one can be fashioned (I fail to believe that I'm the only one who can create a thread with any sort of traction).
. It would be glorious in its aggression and debauchery! But since I know that is never going to be put on the table, can't we just have thread free of pseudo-fights?
man Hollywood really hates gingers for some reason

Thread title: "The never-ending battle against woke Hollywood and SJW infused entertainment media [trigger warning]". In orders words, thread versus woke. That was the original intended design of the thread, and this is evidenced by the first half of the thread before all this fiasco was initiated. The thread was not crafted with the intent to debate the merits of woke inclusion or exclusion in Hollywood media or anything of the like.
That said, sometimes threads do deviate from their original indented purpose (i.e. the Star Wars vs. Star Trek thread). However, changing this thread to a never-ending battle between the opposing sides of Hollywood wokeness (a.k.a. normal people versus woke SJWs) does change its complexion to one with a far darker potential. Such a change takes us from forumites battling woke Hollywood to forumites battling forumites. And the purpose of battle is to slay, break or utterly destroy your opponent (in this case verbally). In such a contest, at least historically, forum etiquette universally fails (we've already seen that once in this very thread). Now if we're talking a no-holds barred contest, where forum rules are suspended... I'm game
An interesting take and a surprising one. You feel like you can precisely define what a thread is or isn't...
...but the creator of the thread can't? Nobody "owns" a thread, but forum practice has historically revolved around staying somewhat true to the original intent/design of the thread, especially at the request of the person who set up the thread. In this case, I was only doing it to try to keep the peace. That said, I like Chaos!
Call this a social experiment. My original hypothesis was true.
Funny... this is playing out in real-time in a completely unrelated thread...
Different initial underlying cause, in that we fully agree, but just as vulnerable to the proposed precedent that threads can be hijacked at will.That is a very different issue and you know it.
