@georgetakei I think he is confused about who the culprits are for things getting more boring and vanilla. It isn't "the extreme left", which has no power. It is a smaller and smaller group of corporate execs who are unwilling to take risks. But what the execs are worried about isn't "someone might be offended" as much as "this is different from what we have done before, we are afraid it won't work". So they keep doing the same thing over and over.
