For reference, what this guy means is a contingent of people sticking their fingers in their ears and shouting any time someone brought up how much of a sexist weirdo sorkin was, or how disingenuous the entire concept of the show was

This show is loving dogshit. The feel is right and the actors are right but the writing is absolutely awful.
Every episode has the exact same shtick to the T. The smart people act dumb sometimes oh isn't that cute. The dumb people surprise you with trivia oh wow. The funny people act dry, the dry people shock you with a great joke. The mean people shock you by being thoughtful and the nice people shock you with flashes of meanness. Whenever sorkin wants to show something of great importance he starts off with like 10 people in a room, then someone asks 6 people to leave, so there's 4, then someone asks for the room, so then there's 2, and you KNOW its serious now. Bunch of people yelling over each other whoever stops and doesnt yell the longest loses the argument. Also in times of "comedy" people are always taking a pause then inhaling sharply and saying something. Every character has every stupid little sorkin mannerism so every character is the same which is a shame since the actors seem like they're really trying to do a good job with what they've got. And again everyone is super brilliant, cutely dumb, funny, ultra integrity etc
Also the FBI stops raiding a newsroom with a warrant because Olivia Munn is on TV or something what the gently caress
basically its super pretentious and in the west wing you had martin sheen to alleviate some of that but now it's smart people jerking off onto each other in every scene.
stop watching it, oh it's the third season and you're still bitching
oh my

Jesus. Now Don is literally the worst.
What kind of misogynistic crap did I just watch? It felt like Aaron Sorkin was telling the audience "social media and the internet ALSO sucks because rape victims are talking about their experiences when the law has failed them and omg privileged rich guys may not get into law school waaaaahhh."
What the gently caress.
gently caress YOU Aaron Sorkin.
you're really dumb

I don't get this mentality. It was a character saying that, not Aaron Sorkin. And on top of that, when Will says it, we're all supposed to understand that he's wrong and appreciate how far he's come since Mac and Neal and the rest showed him the light.
