Netflix has become a preachy, hypocritical, and politically toxic mess. It runs headliner projects attacking Hollywood’s self-policing Hayes Code and past discrimination against disfavored groups and ideas. Yet it actively supports new McCarthyite blacklists and subject-matter prohibitions that target whites, men, conservatives, centrists, and everyone else who the far left has canceled. It actively pushes the country to the far left under the direction of board members from left-wing administrations.
But now Netflix has really descended to new depths. It has featured a French movie – Cuties – that glories in the sexualization of young girls. And when called out, Netflix – the company that thought viewers needed to be schooled by the Black Lives Matter organization before streaming Gone With the Wind – replied “just watch the movie.”
This is absurd – and grotesque.
