One early harbinger of things to come was in 1978 (or somewhere around there) was the only time I walked out of a movie, and it was at the base theater. The movie was "Pink Flamingoes." I couldn't believe that the United States Air Force would allow such garbage in their base theater.
Now I suppose they'd play that movie during the monthly Commander's Call which was also held at the base theater.
Egad. I know. I had Netflix for many years, but in the last ten years, it seemed to go overboard with filth to the point I simply couldn’t stomach giving them money.
I think what did it for me was realizing they had a whole section devoted to LGBTQXYZ crap.
I can’t stand it. My wife got a movie from the Library and wanted me to watch it with her, and I almost always agree to that request because I am always looking for something in common we can relax and do together, so I did, but with trepidation. I heard bad things about it. But I watched.
Boy, I wasn’t far off the mark. It was completely and totally woke, with multiple references to lesbian mothers, strong women who can do anything, and men who are stupid and bound up in their toxic masculinity.
I pulled out my laptop less that a quarter of the way in and kept my mouth shut to keep the peace.
I can’t imagine what they would show on bases these days.
