For a moment, it seemed like the streaming apps were the things that could save us from the hegemony of cable TV—a system where you had to pay for a ton of stuff you didn’t want to watch so you could see the handful of things you were actually interested in.

    Well yea bait and switch is literally capitalism. We have lived with this shit cunt economic model for 40+ years. Now we won’t buy their bloated garbage because let’s face it, there is literally NOTHING good to watch so they bloat their services with D movies and hide good movies or you still have to pay for them (Amazon Prime).

    Fuck Bob Iger and every Hollywood CEO. Your legacy is trash and I feel bad for the people who are elated by it.

    People will for sure look back and say wow there was some good stuff created but it was because of writers and actors not because of shit cunt CEOs and vulture capitalist bankers.

    So fuck off streaming services while the kids go pirating again.
