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.
Now throw away your TV and mission complete.
exactly! we cancelled cable over 5 years ago,no regrets.
This! We cut the cord on the cable crap 7 years ago and went to an antenna. That cut our time in front of the tube in half. Especially in the evenings. Since about late 2019 we literally quit watching all TV. We cannot even turn it on anymore. It's all complete propaganda and consumerism B.S. For a while, every couple weeks we were turning it on to just check out the local news spin on what is going on. It's hard to watch. Now we barely even turn it on once a month! If we do, we tune in to a local news channel for a few minutes to see what kind of B.S. they are spinning now. It's almost comical! BUT, it makes me so angry now, I cannot leave the damn thing on for more than a couple minutes. I find myself screaming and yelling at the TV shouting obscenities until the wife says I need to turn it off because it's driving me crazy. Don't even get me started on the damn commercials. I could go on about the B.S. they are shoving in our face in the commercials! They can fuck right the hell off! Essentially all we use the thing for now is watching/viewing pictures off our phones or watching an old movie on what few remaining DVD's I have left. Anyway... Yea. Agreed. Ditch the damn thing!
Yep. No idea how people on here still are watching the idiot box and paying money to cable, oops I meant paying money to the CABAL.
