Just holy shit. Holy shit. Conservative conspiracy theorists always go on and on about secret societies planting subliminal pedophilic imagery in kids’ shows and it’s ridiculous because in reality you don’t need a secret society and it barely needs to be subliminal. Just wrap your abuse up as a “joke” and get people to laugh with you. The concept of sneaking adult themes into kids’ shows has never been more insidious.
Episode 2 made so so nauseous. I’ve been seeing people come to the wrong conclusions too. Like blaming the parents or thinking it’s just Dan. The doc did a good job showing how abusers can be successful, especially in an industry with power imbalance between up and coming stars and established/profitable crews. It’s an industry wide problem and getting rid of this person or that person will not correct the industry.
Did you see Dans interview with Tebo from iCarly in response?
I haven’t seen the interview, no. Worth a watch or is it just gross?
It felt gross. Like he cared more about clearing his name than the content of the doc. If you’ve watched Bojack before it felt like the first interview with Biscuits Braxby
