Illogical Political Critiques

“Let’s start with the good — the three hosts are intelligent, have good chemistry, and are willing to go deeper than most other mainstream outlets.
The Hogwarts Legacy episode is emblematic of the political issues which often mar these conversations. Maddie in particular has the strange idea that if an artist doesn’t support the “shipping” of their characters, it’s valid to critique the work for that. She’s levied this charge against both the “Harry Potter” and “Bayonetta” franchises.
It’s bizarre to complain that if art / storytelling doesn’t match your personal head cannon, that that is a failure on the part of the artist / work.
The fact that “Harry Potter” isn’t about a trans witch using magic to alter their body … isn’t a legitimate critique. The fact that two characters you’d like to be lesbians, aren’t? Not a valid critique.
Art doesn’t owe anything to your personal agenda. It’s fine to enjoy things that you align closely with, but to find fault with expressions that don’t perfectly match your own is weird.
Artists / storytellers are perfectly within their rights to say “your theory is wrong — the characters I’ve invented aren’t who you say they are.” Art is open to interpretation, but it isn’t a “choose your own adventure”.”

“Kirk, Mandy, and Jason truly are the best. If you loved Splitscreen than you you will love this too. Great discussions, great arguments, interesting takes (hot and otherwise), and the best music you’ve never heard of unless you sent Kirk the link. Can’t wait to watch the new show grow and prosper...”Read full review »
