    There’s a whole fake British accent invented by Hollywood because they thought it sounded sophisticated. Nobody talked like that in real life, nobody outside that group asked for or wanted it. The fact it exists and is in TV and movies doesn’t mean they’re “trying to capture and audience in relevancy” because there isn’t one.

    The people who decided what was ok on TV and movies were assholes. That trend continued for a very long time (Weinstein ring a bell? How about what happened to Cory Haim?) and it’s only recently that it’s getting effectively called out and removed. Well past when it should have, that we can agree on.
