used to be people were ashamed of being illiterate. now we got some who seem to brag about it negatively affecting their media choices.

like, my man, there's plenty of shows out there for you if you can't read.

Ain't that some shit? We've come full circle where people labeled as a dipshit was a badge of shame and now, thanks to people like Drumpf and other assorted bottom feeders, loudly proclaiming you're an ignoramus gets you ahead in life.

You don't hear them squealing whenever the nerds in that viking show speak in Old Norse, Old English, or the occasional Latin during random scenes.

[–] combat_brandonism@hexbear.net 21 points 4 days ago (6 children)

Rome would've been the goated show if it was subbed classical latin

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 20 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Rome but woke.

I have no idea if that show is worth watching or it but the iPhone shovelware game ass name puts me off immediately

a completely foreign language

Settler trash accidentally admits that amerikkka invaded Hawaii and needs to gtfo

Guaranteed that there wouldn't be this level of white bastard seething if it were subbed anime

[–] gramxi@hexbear.net 38 points 4 days ago (4 children)

for actual criticism of the show, a lot of it is filmed in new zealand and has a lot of maori actors as extras/secondary characters rather than hawaiians, and the creator is Mormon

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 30 points 4 days ago (17 children)

All completely valid criticisms, especially over the creator.

They're angry because they don't know how to read.

In 2025, "Over half of the people in the United States read below the 6th-grade level, and one-fifth read below the third-grade level."

I was browsing a book store a few weeks ago, and a few college kids on vacation walked in. One of the girls asked one of the guys what the best book he's read recently was and he said "nah, I don't fuck with books."

Making them in their native language should be the norm to begin with. I am tired of chuds crying about every little thing and it never makes any sense. It is beyond pathetic and very embarrassing.

"A completely foreign language". Unlike the High Germanic language of English, which we all know is native to the Americas.

[–] jack@hexbear.net 46 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Oh hell yeah this show is in Hawaiian? Sick. I'm definitely watching.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 30 points 4 days ago

It makes me mildly want to break my fast of not watching t.v

[–] RION@hexbear.net 39 points 4 days ago

When something Mel Gibson did 20 years ago is too woke for you

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 43 points 4 days ago

Hawaii isn't american sweetie.

[–] Xiisadaddy@lemmygrad.ml 39 points 4 days ago (1 children)

People like this get to a point where theyre so used to literally everything being made FOR them that when they see something that isnt made with only them in mind it's an affront.

Glad someone brought the show up. Here's my hot take:

Apple made this show with the sole objective of showing off Jason Mamoa's ass.

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 19 points 4 days ago

Hot take?

More like hot cake

Me ordering a sandwich at a sandwich shop, turning around and slapping the sandwich out of the mouth of the person sitting closest to me because it wasn't the same kind of sandwich as my own.

“if i wanted to read,it would be a book”

press X to doubt

he doesnt even know you’re supposed to space after punctuation. he’s never even LOOKED at a book.

[–] NuraShiny@hexbear.net 23 points 4 days ago

I didn't see these complaints with Shogun, probably because they were talking Japanese in it and glorious Nippon's tongue is okay because Anime.

[–] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 29 points 4 days ago

this is some cozy grillman whining. "Subtitles suck" guy used to be more common back when movie studios made more movies

They think companies exist to lose money so they can call mayo people racists.

Wasn't there a Netflix drama that was produce mostly by an American company but 2/3 of the dialogue was Japanese? I don't recall these people complaining about that one.

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 22 points 4 days ago (7 children)

My complaint about that one is that the third of it that was in English should actually have been in Portuguese.

Wow, a boring lmayo cracker shouts angrily to the clouds because a film they will never watch was produced in a different language and they would need to use subtitles. The pride these cultureless you-are-a-serf have is astonishing. Who doesn't enjoy watching subbed video content or foreign films?

[–] RoabeArt@hexbear.net 14 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I recently watched La sociedad de la nieve (Society of the Snow) at a friends' house with his roommates and some mutual friends. Most of the group kept complaining about the subtitles (I remember one roommate saying, "I want to watch the movie, not read.") until my friend begrudgingly switched the audio to dubbed English about half hour in.

It's like casual racism and aversion to reading go hand-in-hand.

When it tanks, they'll call you racist.

Sure thing grandma, let me put you back in the home.

[–] huf@hexbear.net 16 points 4 days ago

ha! i'm already calling them racist

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 24 points 4 days ago

Wahh i don't want to read

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 12 points 4 days ago

Somehow, I doubt that this guy would read a book, or has ever read a book tbh.

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 19 points 4 days ago

Every time I see one of these posts I'm just like how are people this foolish. Incidentally they seem to often have a blue check.

Maybe I'll write a series of short stories about finding people who post garbage on the Internet and murdering them. Not like this whiner would know.
