Due to North Carolina's wholly rational and scientific law stipulating that men and women can only use restrooms corresponding to their biological sex, the streaming platform Netflix has opted to boycott the state.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the streaming platform's upcoming coming-of-age drama "OBX" will now be filmed in South Carolina instead of North Carolina (where the story is set) because of House Bill 2, which required transgenders to use bathrooms according to their sex assigned at birth. Hollywood celebrities have been wailing and gnashing their teeth at the law since it passed in 2016. Some studios have already pulled projects out of the state.


Interesting to see their stocks play in a sticky subject.

If they really wanted to make a difference they would stop streaming to all subscribers in NC.

They don't wanna lose money though, just falsely proclaim some morals.

And nothing says moral like supporting men who say they’re women being allowed to share bathrooms with girls.

Is NC the only state that does this why are they specifically singling them out?

Ridiculous. Good on North Carolina for staying strong on this.

Time to put our $$$ in the right place! Send Netflix an email stating that you won't subscribe to their service until they get out of politics!

ETA: I'll make it easy for you. Call 1-866-579-7172

This. As I’m reading the post I’m thinking, no way they are this brazen and stupid to tank their stock like this. Then read this...

And realize this is just another spineless attack on half the country. South Carolina should introduce the same law.

Netflix is a joke anyways.

Much ado about nothing.

If they did a good job being a trans, no one will know that they went to the wrong bathroom.

Trans people, step up your game.

Netflix should take a stand and build transgendered bathrooms on every set and in all of their corporate offices. There is t any financial cost with doing that is there? LOL

We don’t allow trannies here already. We just quietly whoop their asses and put them on buses to Chapel Hill and Asheville without making a big deal out of it.

FWIW ... this is a big deal in NC because of the large trannie and bone smoker communities in Asheville and the RTP that have migrated there from the left coast over the past three decades. North Carolina is fast becoming very much like California and NYC in that regard and eventually we, in SC, will probably be forced to have a major clash with them given so many true North Carolinians are moving down here to get away from the bullshite up there and, at the same time, while they are living down here in exile they are raging about what is happening in their home state.

They’re moving here and they’re also escaping to East Tennessee. Johnson City is about to explode since I-26 finally connected them.

Remember this also. UNC is the largest employer in NC and UNC is one of the most farleftwingnutjob liberal progressive socialist communist universities in the country. But the state is purple and what’s left of the old southern Conservative folk there are trying to fight back.

My point being, you can bet the Asheville crowd and UNC are behind this. They’ve lobbied Netflix to do this.

North Carolina also did away with their film industry welfare.

South Carolina still has the film welfare program

LINK

Netflix is full of s***

Note they did not refuse to sell their services to people in North Carolina.

This transgender shite can't really be about transgenders. It's all about the left using them as a wedge.

The real goal is to attack the reality that there are biological differences between men and women.
