Exclusionary GateKeeping With Hollywood

Late last year, I relaunched Giant Freakin Robot with a renewed determination to avoid these pitfalls by making this the most exclusionary geek site on the internet. What does that mean? It means we will not work with writers who have bad ideas or ideas that are in direct conflict with the values and interests of our readers. That doesn't serve them or us. Specifically, Giant Freakin Robot's readers are geeky men, and always have been, so that means finding commentators who have the same fundamental world view that most geeky men have. Engaging Alex Kurtzman fans to write for Giant Freakin Robot would make about as much sense as investing in Giant Freakin Robot makeup tutorials.

This will be one of the only ways to take back Hollywood and media.

Like forcing equal rights on everyone
Like forcing women's voting on everyone
Like forcing banks not to discriminate based on race
Like forcing employers to provide safe working conditions

What is this magical, undefinable "woke", exactly?
It's simple. It's not being an -------. Especially to those with less power.
