I've been watching some Netflix Original movies over the Christmas break, and I see a new disturbing trend creeping into their movies.
I know it's been the mission of Netflix to break down taboos in order to make Americans feel uncomfortable, and therefore more compliant, to the Left who keep pushing more and more boorish behavior into the public square.
The latest taboo barrier to desensitize seems to be repeated use of the female "c word" in their movies. It's becoming the new "f word" to express frustration, exasperation, or just plain contempt, in their plot lines. This used to be off-limits in the movies.
Is there no societal shame anymore? Is this how we want the next generation to speak to each other? Is this the kind of self-esteem we want the next generation to feel about themselves, and therefore, about others?

Game of Thrones did that 10 years ago.
Here’s a thought.
UNSUBSCRIBE.
overuse of swears always implies laziness and lack of imagination and creativity
sparsely using them at the most appropriate moments keeps their importance/impact the most high
What’s the “c” word?
i doubt many people pay for netflix here, that company hates people like us
“ Is there no societal shame anymore?”
You really have to ask?
1) nobody is making you watch Netflix
2) you’re watching an R rated show. Duh
3) nobody is making you watch R rated shows in Netflix
“... female “c word””
Cow?
What movie?
It rhymes with Runt.
Get out much do ya ??!!
Patrick: (studies the word, then reads) “(dolphin noise)” Oh hey! I think I know what that means. That’s one of those sentence enhancers.
SpongeBob: Sentence enhancers?
Patrick: You use ‘em when you wanna talk fancy. You just sprinkle it over anything you say, and WHAM-O! You got yourself a spicy sentence sandwich.
bad bad bad. we unsubscribed over a year ago.
evil word.
Sadly that term has been normalized in Australia & New Zealand to a surprising degree. I am not surprised it is happening on Netflix too.
cantankerousness
It was used in a Police song, on the “Ghost in the Machine” album.
Good as I would like to toss it around more often as it does send a message....
Cant even begin to know where to start the list of recipients !
