The fact that they seem to think Chris Pratt gets enough online abuse to speak up against and Brie Larson didn't is amazing and enraging Like fuck Where's the YouTubers who made a whole career of dissecting every one of Pratt's media appearances and attacking everything he says

probably cause she seemed abrasive in the interviews and said “i don’t like straight white men” or something along those lines, chris pratt didn’t go out and say “i don’t like {insert group}” in public.

No She never said anything of the kind That's a mangled quote based on something she said when defending A Wrinkle in Time from bad reviewshttps://www.cbr.com/captain-marvel-brie-larson-not-made-for-white-men/ …

She explicitly said in that interview "I don't hate white dudes", but that a "40-year-old white man's opinion" matters less when reviewing a *children's movie* aimed at Black adolescent girls Which you wouldn't think would be controversial if not for, you know, the Internetpic.twitter.com/U0W8l33Kpm

Does the opinion "matter less" because he's 40, white, or male? Or all of the above?

All of the above, because it's a movie starring a Black teenage girl aimed at Black teenage girls

So only Black teenage girls should watch it? Only Black teenage girls should care about it? Only Black teenage girls should even think about it? If I am Asian, the movie's not for me? If I am not a teenager, I can't watch the movie? Isn't that kind of absurd?

You can watch it and care about it if you like but paying you money for you to write a big review of it for a major publication -- a privilege less than 1% of 1% of the population ever gets -- is probably a mistake

I'm entitled to my opinion about all kinds of things that I just plain don't like as a general category but the question is if there's any value in paying me to tell people that I don't like them Come on this is basic shit

Wasn't there that whole ancient Internet meme where one of the judges for a chili cook-off is a random Midwestern guy who's never eaten spicy food before and all his reviews are just him going "IT'S TOO HOT, OH MY GOD, IT HURTS"
