minus-squarewhiskeytango@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-210 小时前No one is saying don’t make thrilling drama. But there’s a wildly successful British baking show that proves wholesome works too. Instead of defaulting to cynicism and worshipping money/power, let’s make some thrilling drama that don’t involve shitty rich people. I bet you watching rich fuckers eat shit would sell very well given the current climate of neo-feudalism
