A momentary distraction until there's something else to whine about.

Like the Apple iPhone XIV!

Reminds me of the dumpster fire George Lucas sold to Disney.

See, everyone won there.

Lucas got PAID.

Disney got a printing press for cash.

Kids got new stuff to enjoy.

And old nerds got to whine about something

As an old nerd who enjoys whining on this, the only good things I got was Baby Yoda, the ability to stream all 9 in one location, and a really cool CGI of a ship jumping to hyperspace being used as a suicide bomber. Gogo SJW.

Pff, the Siege of Mandalore was awesome. Also, Rogue One was solid.

Disney makes an intentionally bad Star Wars movie (last one was literally twilight).
Hardcore fans *** explode.
Youtubers make videos about it.
Fans watch video.
Youtuber makes mad *** ad-revenue from the outrage video.
Youtuber is happy, even though they pretend otherwise.
Film goes viral cause of all the hate.
Casual film watchers consume product they didn't know much about before, cause of all the outrage.
Disney got lots of free advertising, but annoyed the minority of fans.
End result: Disney made over a billion dollars and paid very little on advertising, youtrubers bought a new car.

This is why they all keep making trash movies to annoy fans now

I think you need to combine that with your own statement about morals being individual thing.

And yes class, wealth, opportunity do play a factor. Now whether that is more or less... well that's kind of a matter of perspective and would best to say different. That said some of morality is fear of repercussions whether it be legal, financial or social and very wealth/influential people can certainly ignore those better than most
I don't believe it plays a factor at all. A rich person is just as likely to have moral tendencies than a poor person does. They also are just as likely to have immoral tendencies than a poor person.

An *** is going to be an *** regardless on how much they are worth.
Actually a scientific study made ... IDK, 8? 10? years ago said there is a positive correlation between immorality and wealth.

This is actually scarily accurate. Spite watching makes as much or more than fans watching.

Please post it.

I won't believe you unless you do. Because I can say that there's a positive correlation between *** and hippies and you would have to believe me.

Agreed, solid, if uninspiring.

Contains the single best scene from the series too.

For fun, go and check how channels like CNN covered the Ferguson riots in 2014, compared to how they cover it now. Also those riots were far worse, just looking at the videos.

To my knowledge, CNN nor Inside Edition have reported on the death of people like David Dorn. They just got a simple snippet on their websites but no sensationalized videos on youtube. Imagine that, I wonder why its such a crime to report every important occurrence. If I'm wrong I'd like to see the video to be happy theres some middle ground with this media as they love to incite violence.

Minneapolis City Council Members Want To Abolish The Police

"Several of us on the council are working on finding out, what it would take to disband the MPD," says Minneapolis City Councilmember Fletcher.

Several members of the Minneapolis City Council want to disband their city’s police force and are investigating how this goal might be realized.

“Several of us on the council are working on finding out, what it would take to disband the MPD,” says Steve Fletcher, a member of the 13-person assembly that serves as the legislative branch of Minneapolis government. The decision to abolish the police force comes after George Floyd died at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer, May 26. Floyd’s death triggered a wave of destructive riots throughout the city.

There's a fair amount of research into what a mid-sized city with a greatly reduced police force would look like. Minimal beat cops, mostly have a unit focused on investigations, etc. The tldr is that trivial offenses don't get punished and people have a higher level of overall happiness.

There's nothing even resembling what a major city with NO police force looks like, and the people trying to extrapolate that data are lunatics.

The constant talk about de-arming police is a non-starter, too, in a nation where any random citizen might have The Arsenal of Freedom™ in the back of their pickup truck.

The correct answers are to strip qualified immunity and require more training. Maybe stop giving them tanks.
