Soap Box! OK. Put aside the misogynistic, anti-semitic trolling of #TheLastofUsPartII, because, while watching self-hatred surface and play out loud is amusing, it's not constructive. (Although the art is having its intended impact on them, whether they know it or not.) Thread. Human stories are meant to disturb the fuck out of you. Myths weren't written to comfort. Art should be uncomfortable, because it is revealing you to you. If it can entertain at the same time, that's swell, but that's not the purpose of it. Thread.
