Reply to comment by Butch_Beth in At what point is a spoiler no longer required to be kept under wraps? by microwavedhottakes

It’s the extreme spoilerphobes who need moderation.

I’m very sorry, but once something becomes part of the shared pop culture it’s fair game. Nobody gets to be mad about knowing that Bruce Willis was dead at the end of Sixth Sense or that Soylent Green is people.

The kind of deference that they’re asking for is unreasonable.

I think that kinda of adversarial attitude, the one where you can say what you want and everyone else needs to shut up and take it, is toxic. It's what social media algorithms promote, argument = engagement, but it's always why people log off and don't come back.

You can be that person if you want, but at some point you're all that will be left.

I just think some folks need to calm down about spoilers, man.
