Let me in!

A lot of it is either power scaling or gooning for stories. For tech it's a lot of gatekeeping and trolls. Not worth it most of the time.
The Last of Us 2. There were some obviously heavy parts but I thought it was still good. Then I found the subreddit of people losing their shit over it and quickly left 😅

I watched Dropout and it was kinda interesting.
Then I joined the fandom, asked a question, and my god, what toxic motherfuckers.
F1 fanbase is so terribly polarized these days. Especially on reddit. Apparently you can only like one driver and hate the rest but one the most - looking at you George. I think a lot of this comes from the new 'fans' who only watch DTS and have no real clue or care about the history and development of the sport. Now I must say as a follower for one 20 years, I don't like the new autodrive cars, I do hate MBS, and the direction the liberty media is going.
Edit: the thing I hate the most is that the removed the 3 decimal places on the timing sheets, but only for the main race. For P1, P2, P3 and qualifying it is still OK. That is the dumbest dumb down ever in the sport.
Yep definitely as an old fan of F1 there is definitely a line between new and old fans.
I'm sure there a plenty of people who enjoy Harry Potter, who've never heard of the controversy.
And, I hope they never do. Let people enjoy things.
Go ahead and downvote me now.
