  • The muppets don't sell to children anymore. That's why. There is also no longer a lot of money in properties that are multi-layered in their entertainment approach. It's much easier to produced lots of specialized content. Muppets are essentially a period piece of the 70s/80s and even in the last movie it was more of a nostalgia for adults than anything else.

    Kids today grow up today entirely on CGI movies/tv shows. I have four newphews who mostly live on youtube. They like Star wars and Marvel. That's about it. They have never little interest in anything else. I showed them one or two muppets movie and they thought it was 'stupid and boring'.

  • Gun industry heavily relies on mentally ill people and their paranoid delusions to fuel their profits. They are the people who are buying dozens and dozens of guns.

    "for example, a report published in 2017 by researchers at Harvard and Northeastern universities. The authors estimate that of the 265 million privately owned firearms in the US, about half are owned by 3% of the US adult population. And while about half of gun owners own one or two guns, 8% of gun owners own 10 or more – a figure that amounts to about 40% of the total US gun stock, according to the report."

    Normal mentally well gun owners own own like 1-3 weapons, because why would any sane person need more than that? They aren't making money off your average joe who buys a handgun/shotgun. They are making it off the nutbags who own 20 different combat rifles and all the tacticool accessories so they can cosplay on the weekends as soldiers and 'train' who sit around on the internet bragging about how 'prepared' they are for some doomsday scenario.

  • My dad used to talk about how democrats were evil and should be put in camps to be exterminated. And the worst thing the country ever did was allow women to vote.

    I used to think he was an insane person. Now I realize he simply was a republican ahead of his time. He died in 2012.
