Volunteer work. It's "for the experience."

All your post does is reinforce my critique. Look, I went to film school. I understand how deconstructing media works. I also know that if you take that too far then it's no longer entertainment, but simply people carpet-bagging their way into a property to use as a political conversation piece. I understand that in a forum people who get off on that are going to congregate here, but I know the difference between noisy ideologues and fans. Since you don't seem to have any mode of engagement beyond strawmen and ad hominem, pointing this out is pissing into the wind, but I don't need your personal stamp of approval or those of the converted you preach to to know I'm right.
IOt was either a broadcast fee dispute OR a Commercial money dispute (IE Paramount wanted more money for commercials (eg. change the revenue split) because yes, new episodes of Season 7 was not aired as they 'premiered' for a time in markets - they repeated earlier season episodes in the timw slot instead.) It had nothing to to with sports pre-emptions.
That some good soup.
And in my long and storied career as a cromulentarian, I've encountered certain persons who manage to break all known physical laws by sucking all the air out of the room despite the fact they have evolved to insert their heads up their own posteriors and breathe the rare air of their own wind. Nature abhors a vacuum, but still they suck. The universe is a magical place I suppose. You just say a thing, based on your experience and leanings and it is most decidedly so.
Political conversation pieces.. that runs many ways. Politics is a complicated matter and is only binary to extremely stupid people, but setting that aside, the reactions of the youtube haters has been very reactionary. Not that is reactionary to hate discovery. Hate it all you like. Hate any show you don't like. They're shows. They have no feelings. But when its just another tool the same closet you keep your tiki torches and other alt-right paraphenalia and phrases, it paints a pretty accurate picture. I've seen it in gaming culture, I've seen it in fandom. I'm not the only one. As a film student, I'm sure you can frame that one in your mind.
I'm not going to change your mind. If you want to be polarized, you will be, and you'll eek it out like Aqua Velva in hot a car with no ac. That's how it goes. There may be some noisy ideologues in this particular forum, though the few I've encountered were decidedly not in the part of the field you seem to be implying. Frankly I don't know much about most people's political leanings here and as long as they're not extremists, I don't care and don't want to know.
I'm going to step in and challenge this assumption. Binary thinking comes as a defensive reaction to past pain, not just from stupidity. As with politics, humans are a complicated manner and black and white thinking is just one way we try to survive in this universe.
But calling people stupid doesn't really help.
Just a real world observation, it never helps, mostly because stupid people don't know they are stupid.
Fair point. Building up relationship with people is what helps.
That's throwing a lot of words around without saying anything resembling a coherent thought. There's no through-line from blathering about "deconstructing media" to it being "no longer entertainment". Non sequitur. You might want to go take a refresher course on Jacques Derrida before next prattling on about something you apparently don't actually grok.
