I find what you say both fascinating and true. Even the last paragraph. It's kind of like when I hear people criticizing sexism go "We're not saying we want this censored, but we're saying it's stupid."
Also, yeah on the "something that affects our future" being upset. Well, kind of. I do think art/entertainment is important in its way, but to be honest I'll probably be voting for someone whose views conflict with this in the next election. This is part of my frustration.
That being said, I do think this was poor reporting on Fox News' part. They could have attacked dating sims or The Witcher if they really wanted a "see women as objects" criticism. It's all really dumb.
