I proposed this as a sort of Sister Souljah moment and I think it would've helped. It would've eliminated being seen out of touch with young voters and might've pissed off the purple haired gender studies students crowd which would've resulted in them backlashing against her and thus a net benefit with everyone else. That helps over any issue that isn't Gaza pretty much.

Everybody would have been extremely confused - and many would be rightfully concerned - that she was spending any time at all speaking to such an unimportant and extremely niche conversation

Yes, and it'd distract from the important conversation about how massive Arnold Palmer's 1 Wood.

Unfortunately some on the left did decide this isn't unimportant or extremely niche and drove a bunch of young men to the Joe Rogan infosphere and radicalization as a result.

The 2 people whose votes changed would cancel each other out.

To people who say it was not an issue: Why did Landslide Lyndon keep pushing the narrative that anyone who didn't like them are right-wing incels so much here? And if you say he's just some random guy in Greece who can't even vote in US elections: Where do you think he was getting this idea from? He clearly was tuned into low quality US liberal Twitter accounts considering how often he kept posting them? The guy unironically posted Alex Cole before....regardless though he's not the issue here, but there was clearly an ecosphere of podcasts and the dumbest center-left people on Twitter who were pushing this as a thing.

And with this post, we have officially reached peak overanalyzation of what is fundamentally a very simple election.

Kind of a standard #Resistance grifter type except he manages to be really dumb so often. Like this:

Many inaccuracies in such a short post, I'm surprised there's no Community Notes...but also raises the question even if it was accurate what's the point? It's like someone saying the 9/11 hijackers were 100% Arab Muslims...OK, and?

A very simple election that you got completely and utterly wrong, after spending months daily ridiculing everybody who disagreed with your hilariously wrong takes.

Leaving aside the fact that normal people would find it extremely weird and offputting if Harris tried to make "I think [insert Hollywood blockbusters] were terrible" a big thing, the people who hated the Disney Star Wars movies as much as a lot of atlas peeps do were a vocal minority(Even the third one, which has writing that is bad by fanfic standards, is not something most people care about enough to bring up in a campaign). Overwhelmingly male nerd spaces are not representative of the population as a whole(neither are twitter microcelebrities for that matter.)

Honestly, I think Trump's advantage is that he's willing to show everybody exactly who he is. There is no filter, for good and bad.

Democrats need to run somebody who is willing to take a position and be themselves. If Harris actually hates Disney Star Wars, sure she should have talked about it. Be bombastic and less guarded.

Didn't you spend spend years mocking the idea that right-wing 'media analysis' on youtube was pushing young men to the right?

It would have done wonders because it would have been the most human opinion she expressed the entire campaign. And for that very reason it would have gone viral everywhere. Of course all the good would have been undone when her snowflake staffers saw the worst youtubers embracing her and they would bully senior staff into denouncing GamerGate 2 and praising the new Dragon Age.

Seriously though it would have been big because she never did anything like it

People would wonder why she's talking about what movies she does/doesn't like and not her policies.

If there was something to BRTD's theory, why didn't Trump ever talk about The Apprentice in his campaigns?

Because The Apprentice wasn't during its run polarized into a culture war issue like some idiots on the left did with Disney Star Wars and post-Endgame MCU.
