Thankfully, there are still people who don't shove diversity nonsense down your throat.

What, black, Hispanic, and Asian people can't be portrayed just as sappily happy about Christmas as white people? That really wouldn't be "diversity nonsense"; it would, to the extent that Hallmark is the teensiest bit realistic, be at least reflective of the real world. Ironically, the Hallmark channel's Christmas programming can best be described by the word "schmaltz."

The article was critical of this exchange from one of their movies...

Daughter: “You said you wanted [my sister and I] to spend more time together.”

Father: “I thought you’d go shopping or get your nails done.”

The patriarchy never rests!!!!

Private network. Don’t like it, change the channel. Perhaps they’d enjoy BET or Telemundo for example.

I don’t know about all that. The link makes it sound more corny than anything else.

All I know is that it’s waaaaaay to schmalzty of a channel for me to watch. I didn’t even know that men watched the Hallmark Channel.
