The Monetization of Geek Hate
Note: This Editorial is just Brian’s opinion. Not those of B42 at large (though they can speak up for themselves).
So, this showed up in r/StarTrek (and was yanked by the mods). The “news” site Giant Freaking Robot is hiring a staff writer where hating Starfleet Academy is a requirement. Look, I get it if you don’t like “NuTrek”. There are legit concerns about the writing, but this feels like we’re actively trying to destroy the stuff that brings us joy. It’s already well-established that social media is built around promoting hate. Getting people angry makes them comment and click.
Better, smarter people than I can probably comment on it. Heck, I should see if my buddy with a PhD in Sociology wants to dive into this.
This feels beyond “criticism” and moves into “angry manipulation”.
