Daily Wire

quote:

The updated Netflix Culture memo includes a new section called “Artistic Expression” that states that it will not “censor specific artists or voices” even if employees consider the content “harmful.”

“If you’d find it hard to support our content breadth, Netflix may not be the best place for you,” the memo states, later adding that employees may be required to work on projects that they “perceive to be harmful” and that if they have a hard time accepting their work assignment, they might want to consider working somewhere else.

“Entertaining the world is an amazing opportunity and also a challenge because viewers have very different tastes and points of view. So we offer a wide variety of TV shows and movies, some of which can be provocative,” the new section reads, later adding, “we support the artistic expression of the creators we choose to work with” and that “we let viewers decide what’s appropriate for them, versus having Netflix censor specific artists or voices.”

Is this because of Chappelle or is this because they want to continue to produce borderline child pornography?

This is the memo I would have written at the beginning of the Woke moment. Good news is I hope this is the beginning of the end for woke BS. I always said it would go on until it begins to hurt the bottom line. I think that is happening.

Twitter is a town square.

Netflix is supposed to be entertainment.

But I see your point.

Since we’re talking Netflix, I’m betting the latter.

Isn't this common sense to find a new job if you don't like your employer?

Oh nevermind wokeness means a lack of common sense. Sorry for the brainfart

So, you'd be perfectly fine with Musk, or whoever had or has control, canceling any and everything Donald Trump was involved with at Netflix.....just because? Speaking hypocritically, of course.

ETA: I fricked up and was going to edit to "hypothetically" like I meant, but I don't think I will.

Don't kid yourself. Their woke employees don't care about their children's programming. It's the Chapelle stuff they find "harmful" and Netflix needs that Chapelle money to keep producing the children's programming no one is paying for.

Sure. Like I said, it’s supposed to be about entertainment. Not indoctrination.

Ok, waiting for "2000 Mules" and conservative content to start airing. Woo Hoo!
