It’s always one way. When it’s people who are predominantly left wing forcing their politics into a medium, they always laugh and make excuses and call those who disagree “right wing” even though you can be left wing and dislike hamfisted politics.

But these same people wouldn’t be making the same excuses if it was politics THEY disagree with. It’s just a shallow shield to hide behind, rather than principle, because they know they have the power to keep pushing their agenda, to create propaganda and they don’t see a problem with it so long as THEY do it.

Proof?

“The Last Night” was perceived to be a cyberpunk setting critical of social justice. The creator was hounded, attacked and, ultimately, the project was eventually put on hold.

“Kill The Moon” in Doctor Who is perceived to have a “Pro-Life” message and it was lambasted as being in bad taste, with a terrible message and hamfisted, often roundly proclaimed to be one of the worst of the 12th Doctor episodes, if not one of the entire renewed series.

Teresa Neilson, an artist, being lambasted for following conservative figures on Twitter, with a call for boycotting any and all products that feature her artwork (including Magic: The Gathering)



“Overwatch” being called out for Brigitte’s police skin, claiming it is “pro-police”.

When it isn’t something they agree with, it suddenly becomes “problematic” and should be removed, torn down or otherwise criticized for it’s political message. The only difference is instead of being honest and citing the perceived political messaging and pushing in these things, they immediately make calls of bigotry of one stripe or another.

It’s hypocrisy on an epic scale. Either their in such a bubble that they can’t see any political agenda so long as it agrees with them, or they’re so dishonest they couldn’t give a damn.
