#CJs2Cents: There is only ONE instance I feel the argument, "if you don't like it, then don't watch/read it", can be applied intelligently. That situation would be if the individual being told this doesn't like the content they're given and aren't invested in said content either.
In the other cases when people say, "don't like, don't watch/read", they're simply looking at things from the perspective of subjective enjoyment & not overall investment, leading to them coming off as someone who only consumes entertainment they completely enjoy. Very limiting.
However, with the exception I'm using, you're looking at both their subjective enjoyment and overall investment. We consume entertainment because we either enjoy the product or we are mentally/emotionally connected to it. But if neither exists with a product, it's just a waste.
