I used to think that some of the ideologues on the Left truly weren’t grasping this nuance, and in some measure of good faith actually thought the fans really WERE just a bunch of misogynist assholes and that we were all just yelling past each other.

I believe now with all my heart that they fully DO know exactly what we are saying, and they just continue to pretend that they don’t so that they have the strawman of racist, sexist assholes being to blame for all of society’s ills (the least of which, I’m sure they believe, are the dismal box office showings of their garbage propaganda).
