That's exactly the problem... nobody goes to jail. Start jailing board members and executives and shit will change REAL fast.

No, they really don't. The whole point is that critic reviews are if anything incredibly shallow, essentially little more than hipsterish circlejerks.
Because even the single most toxic sub on the entire website which openly tries to goad at-risk users into committing suicide, routinely engages in doxing, and considers brigading to be a core part of their sub's existence still has the favor of the admins.
SRS would brigade the shit out of the system making it useless.
Voat can barely keep up with the constantly increasing demand even without taking the constant DoS attacks into account, and they're starting to pull in outside funding.
How many times have we seen this with everything from Ant-Man to the same issue in the other direction with Far Cry 2? "Critics" hate something because it doesn't pander to their agenda while people love it, or they fall over each other fellating it because it does pander to their agenda or they got paid while actual consumers despise it because it's crap.
The solution is to simply say that you can't retroactively immunize someone for violating the constitution, it is by definition as illegal and invalid as the original act.
Wikipedia? Really man? You realise wikipedia is openly politicized to the point of utter uselessness these days right? I mean ffs the place claims Jesus wasn't Jewish but actually Palestinian.
You're conveniently ignoring that Israel completely pulled out of Gaza, leaving all infrastructure for the residents to use including greenhouses and everything, and all it got was indiscriminate rocket and mortar fire by a government whose very charter calls for total genocide.
Just like you're also ignoring that the partition of the British Mandate gave the overwhelming majority of the land to the Arabs and called it "Jordan".
And that there's no such thing as "67 borders".
You're right, they are incontrovertible. After all the Grand Mufti was very public about his political and military alliance with Hitler, even speaking highly of the "final solution" after being given a tour of Auschwitz. His nephew and successor who you'd know by the assumed name Yasser Arafat continued his goals, and his successors in Hamas have included the call for total genocide in the very founding charter of their government.
Rhetoric which the surrounding arab states have attempted to follow through on repeatedly... starting with their war of genocide in 1948, which as preceded by a public warning for all muslims to leave the region so that any remaining people could be killed indiscriminately.
The only thing ignoring reality is the claim that there exists such a thing as a "palestinian" in the first place. Even members of the PLO executive board freely and publicly admitted that "palestinians" were a made up ethnicity designed for political gain.
The region was controlled for centuries by various powers, with arab historians such as Ibn Khaldun and Muqaddasi documenting not only the lack of any notable muslim population but the existence of a substantial permanent jewish population, right up until the British Mandate ended.
And do you know what happened then? Despite the Grand Mufti's political and military alliance with the Third Reich the Arabs were still invited to help draw up the partition plan, and they were still given the overwhelming majority of the partitioned land despite refusing because the continued existence of the Jewish race was utterly intolerable to them.... something they have continuously and explicitly stated up to the modern day where the call for total genocide continues to be so important that it was included in the very government charter of Hamas.
So unless you're going to poo poo all over Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and basically every other nation in the region as well stop being a hypocrite and pretending you don't have double standards here.
I think the most telling thing of all here is how your entire argument literally is nothing more than you absolutely tantrumming over the fact not enough Israelis are dying to satisfy your hatred for Israel.
That's all it is. Nothing more. There is no substance to your argument beyond "But, but, but there's not enough of them dying! And the people whose government charter calls for total genocide are actually losing the fight! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!"
Or the entire middle east keeps giving Israel the free pass to bomb Iran's missile and nuclear programs back into the stone age, the rest of the world poo poos Israel for it while quietly making sure there's nothing left but rubble, and the status quo resumes.
The US has a long and deep history of low income workers being suckered into fighting against their own good in favor of powerful monied interests.
Star Wars is unashamedly a space opera. It doesn't have to be high culture, it just has to be grand, sweeping, and theatrical.
