Everyone needs a hobby. Fixing cars, poetry, gardening, buying a giant sign expressing your love for the lady what wrote some childrens' books 20 years ago, inviting random strangers to talk about your obsession with said author which somehow has nothing to do with said books under the benevolent visage of your giant sign by the side of the road, all normal things for a middle aged man to do in his spare time haha

Cuties is a French film dealing with how young girls are sexualized, but when it came to Netflix the people advertising the movie decided to market it by sexualizing the characters and it's gotten a huge amount of backlash.

It had a bad poster that 4chan trolls used to launch a hate campaign against an innocent person. Last time I checked it had a 90% critics score and a 4% audience score, about 3 of whom have actually watched it I expect.

the movie is made by a senegalese-french woman and it is about the confusion of puberty and girlhood, especially with complicating factors such as cultural mismatch, religious mismatch, and how exactly young women are supposed to express their agency without also being shamed for having bodies. also one of the themes is how adolescent sexuality meets the internet and social media, especially when kids can just take pictures of their junk and put it online because kids are dumb and everyone has an internet connected camera, and what a giant yikes this is to have to grow up with. the film is called Mignonnes in french which basically means "cute young girls" because the plot centers around a young girl and her young girl friends

trailer

so netflix totally did not handle the marketing of this film well, deciding to release it in the US as "Cuties", and way overplayed the whole "sexualizing young girls" angle and of course, with every brainless hellfucker online being a Qanon conspiracy theorist on high alert for pedophilia, the film has gotten review bombed by a million of the stupidest and most freaked out people online

Like it's basically the same problem where people decide Lolita is a book about how great it is to gently caress kids while completely missing the subtext and literal text that no, it is not, and it is very bad, but then marketers contribute to that problem by sexualizing the covers despite that being something the author explicitly did not want. I'm not saying everyone has to go read Lolita, I haven't and I don't intend to, but it fits under the same umbrella where 'I will highlight a cultural problem' becomes interpreted as 'so you enjoy the problem!'

It turns out Americans (at least) are absolutely unable to understand subtle messages, see Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle" where he wrote about how immigrants to the US are treated horribly and inhumanely, enduring squalid living and working conditions, including some working conditions that were so unsafe people occasionally fell in to meat grinders.

And the overwhelming reaction by the public was "wait, we might be eating people? That's disgusting!" And it lead directly to the creation of the FDA.

The other 99% of the book about immigrants living in houses they couldn't heat, wage theft, and having to drink cheap, formaldehyde laced milk to stay alive?

That got ignored.

I've always enjoyed Sinclair's take on it: "I aimed for America's heart and hit it in the stomache"

The Cuties bullshit has been raging in leftist and liberal circles as well, mostly among people who digest all news through headlines and never actually learn anything about the things they're mad about. I think a lot of it is seeing a chance to be mad at a corporation and running with it.

It's surprising that the most nuanced take on it I've seen from an internet 'personality' was from Ben loving Shapiro. Mostly because acknowledging what the movie is actually about gave him an excuse to poo poo on both atheists and Muslims.

To be fair to people, it does take a decent bit of digging to get past the poster and marketing on "Cuties." Like it ain't an article where you can just click through and the meat of the matter is there, you need to actually dig up who the creator is and what her statements on the movie are to see that it is not, in fact, intended as child porn.

Yeah I think it's pretty valid to be mad at Netflix over their handling of it, and I don't think it's really fair to expect people to dig into it more beyond their initial impressions (which are, again, Netflix's fault)

Oh, it's entirely fair to be mad at Netflix. They're the ones at fault. I just meant that people being angry with the director because they don't understand what the movie actually is has not been limited to conservatives, unfortunately. There are a lot of folks calling her a child pornographer.

OK kids, so where do you think the best place to get the word out about the muslamic terroristic leftist tv producers is?

Is it:

A: Your local news's website.
B: Phone into talk radio.
C: Post it on twitter.
D: The comment section of your 8 million view smash mouth all star edit reupload.

If you guessed D then you are correct!
