Wife and I were worn out from a month of insanity, and wanted a way to wind down together. We thought "Hey, we used to LOVE the show Survivor! Let's check it out!"
So we sign up for Paramount+ to get our Survivor on!
Didn't even make it through the first episode. First off like a 3rd of the people are "Medical personnel" in some way shape or form so you know that means they are going to play up the clot shot.
Then they have multiple queer/gay characters which is not all that surprising, but this one guy has his sob story about missing his adopted daughter while his transgender pregnant husband works full-time.
Then the host asks "for 20 years, i've been saying 'come on in guys' is it time to retire that because of the word guys?" And the answer is YES!
The guy who said yes we should drop the word "guys" is like "survivor has changed so much in twenty years, now theres black and brown and LGBT people playing..." LITERALLY THE FIRST WINNER OF SURVIVOR WAS GAY!
I just...
We didn't finish the episode and cancelled paramount plus.
It is so obvious the narrative that these shows are forcing. Almost every episode this season of Survivor they bring up race. They had a black alliance that quickly fell apart, can you imagine a white aliance? There is a holiday baking show I watch every year and planned on watching until I noticed on the commercial for it that FIVE of the eight contestants were black. Geez, let's overcompensate! Every house hunting show now shows gay couples as much as straight couples and if you go on Apple TV -- it is hard to find a straight white male in any of their series, and if you do, they have a supporting role. Discrimination (reverse) Is alive and well in Hollyweird!
Yeah it's the holiday baking show -- couldn't stomach it this year.
