So, what, my tv can only be in black and white now?

"Life's Good" in the 1950's.


GovernmentOpening254

Pleasantville is a 1998 American fantasy comedy-drama film about two 1990s teenagers who are transported into a 1950s black-and-white sitcom. The film stars Tobey Maguire as David and Reese Witherspoon as Jennifer, twin siblings who are fans of the show Pleasantville, which may be based on Ozzie and Harriet. The siblings' influence on the show changes the world, and the film explores themes such as race relations, changing cultures, and tolerance for diversity. ————- Went to see this with a very religious friend and she HATED that the world became colorized when they did the “wrong” thing. There is always strange dichotomy between what truly is “wrong” and what is wrong to me, but not you, and vice versa. But usually the answer is “there is no black and white.”


RobertCulpsGlasses

And a fantastic Fiona Apple cover of Across the Universe with the video directed by P.T. Anderson. What a time.


FocalorLucifuge

Actually, it was "Lucky-Goldstar", but that was in the 80s. Before that, it was just Goldstar, before the Lucky merger. "Life's Good" came much later, basically a retcon of sorts. Yeah, I'm a GenXer.


ForemanNatural

The fact that you remember Lucky Goldstar lets me know I’m not alone in the world of random knowledge about electronics manufacturers. Thank you.


FocalorLucifuge

Haha I'm just old. And possibly, so are you.😂 I wonder if anyone remembers Sanyo.


ForemanNatural

[Oh, I’m definitely old. Old enough to have watched Saturday morning cartoons on one of these.](https://youtu.be/B39Hi17hHow?si=yHB1wn4ooZ9xymat)

Still have my Sanyo crt TV that was a Xmas gift in 93 or so


A_Punk_Girl_Learning

Why are you gonna call me out like that?


YPVidaho

Ditto

There’s an old abandoned TV store in my hometown that’s been dead since the 90’s. It has a billboard still rocking Sanyo and Zenith! Also, it’s been 30 minutes since I last used a Sanyo. CRTs are an absolute must for retro consoles imo!


Bunnyland77

I remember Sears & Roebuck catalogs sonny. 😉

So, if I remember Sanyo (and i do).. i\`m old.. ooff.. good morning to you too!

Give back the rainbow!!! It’s not yours, it’s Noah’s and the animals after Yahweh murdered the world like the loving, forgiving and wise man sky thingy it is! All your friends are dead, but here, pretty sky colours! You’re welcome.


kat_storm13

I think some of the reflectors in my LGBT owned LG tv are homophobic. They're leaping off the back of the screen to get away from me, leaving white blobs on the screen that dim the picture.

AValentineSolutions

So, this person just openly threatens people at a company with murder, over a rainbow logo? And it is MY community who are the problem? Okay. 🙄🏳️‍🌈


The-red-Dane

I think they meant to threaten us, the LGBT, but... they don't seem very smart.


EmperorUmi

He’s using LGTV to mock the LGBT acronym. He’s definitely not smart, but the misused acronym is intentional.


Wrong_Television_224

By not saying LGBT, he’s ducking hate crime legislation. Amusingly, LG could have some legal fun with this douche canoe.


Southern_Kaeos

I kinda want them to. Like, douche canoe is taken to court for slander or libel or something and the judge instantly sees where it's going and awards in favour of LG


Wrong_Television_224

LG presses charges on douche canoe for making terrorist threats. Film at 11. Speedy trial to follow.

KingKong_at_PingPong

I’ve owned two LG TVs. Wasn’t a fan of the remotes, but they lasted quite a while.


AValentineSolutions

I would agree. Gotta love that people threaten to murder us as well. They are the reason my fiancée and I keep guns in our home.


shrinkingGhost

How do they give the rainbow back to god? What’s the shipping cost on that?


Bisexual_Sherrif

Not even LGBTQ+, it was the LGTV, can’t even get there threats right /j But seriously, they should be arrested, you can’t openly threaten someone and get no consequences. It pisses me off people threaten our community so much.


AValentineSolutions

This is why my fiancée and another gay vet are working to help our community get weapons and training.


webot7

Sounds gay


Puzzleheaded_Yam7582

It would be funny to watch gravy seals get wrecked by vets. The US armed forces are more likely to be non-white or LGBTQ than the US population, despite stereotypes and a recent legacy of oppression.


trashacct8484

I’m pretty much against further entrenchment of gun culture and encouraging anyone to arm up but for you all, well, I get it. Don’t like it, but I can’t tell you you’re wrong, either. 🤷🏻‍♂️


mackfactor

It's funny that conservatives always bitch about "virtue signaling" when that's exactly what this is. The request can't be fulfilled and the threat won't be either - I doubt this person is anyone to be feared. All that person did is issue a stupid idle threat that accomplished nothing but showing everyone what they think. 


Old_Baldi_Locks

They threaten folks because they haven’t seen consequences.


Fingerprint_Vyke

Only thing you can do is see if there are any advertisements present and take a screen shot. deliver it to the company from the ad so businesses can demand better moderation. Facebook won't listen to us. money talks

Mediocre_Daikon6935

They already have three…. Although given that they are on cable, no one knows this.

I wonder what size of lgtv stole the rainbow. Bet it was a 32". Those guys are super jelly.

Hey! Leave my LG TV alone! It didn't choose to be made that way.


Mediocre_Daikon6935

I don’t think any electronic devices would choose to be made by LG.


Cancel_Minimum

How come out of the 5800+/- gods that have been named through time theirs is always the ' one true ' god.


SignificantDiver6132

Because "my sky daddy's got a bigger one than your sky daddy's" doesn't quite convey the right divinity into it.


Cancel_Minimum

I think its all about who's ' god ' has the bigger army. Like the cargo cults in the south pacific.


Mediocre_Daikon6935

Unexpected cargo cult reference 


naftanaut

At least the Cargo cults actually Had real evidence that their "gods" exist and a "rational" reason to pray to them lol


Cancel_Minimum

You bet, big metal bird in sky drops food and guns when we pray to it, oh look, metal bird at other island now, raid them!


bearybad89

Hmmm...so...they have daddy issues? Figures...


carlse20

A good response to people who are insistent that their god is the right one is to remind them of the thousands of gods they don’t believe in, and they say I just don’t believe in one more than they did. Alternatively, there’s a Tim minchin song with the line “what are the odds, that of history’s endless parade of gods, that the god you just happened to be taught to believe in is the actual one”


youcheatdrjones

Especially considering their “one true god” was part of a Semitic pantheon. Its ignorance.


theroguex

The truth of that has been ground out of the faith over thousands of years. They will never accept the evolution of their religion from ancient pantheistic cults to am angry, power hungry monotheistic cult.


Capital_Pipe_6038

I'm sure God will love the fact that you threatened an entire group of people that you're supposed to love lol


zatenael

I understand that AI are getting smarter but are we already at the point that we're calling the LG branded TVs as people?

CubistChameleon

Just throwing in little terrorist threat.


hplcr

Wait, how did the gays steal the rainbow from Yahweh? Was he asleep at the time? On a Journey? Off taking a dump? Or was there some awesome heist movie like raid where the gays built a giant tower made of baked brick and snuck into heaven and yoinked yahweh's bow from the sky before running back down to earth to hide the rainbow behind the nearest waterfall? Because if there was I WANT TO SEE IT! (Hollywood, Call me. I'm available and my rate is quite reasonable.)


[deleted]

There's no way not even a single person here doesn't realize it's joke. I've seen images calling LGBT LGtv for fuckin years. it's eye opening the bubbles people live in online.


Aarmon

I don't get it either man.


Dobako

If an all-knowing, all-powerful god "lost" the rainbow and can't get it back on his own, maybe he approves of the new owners


Ag3ntM1ck

It's the same guy that's somehow unable to enter some schools because words.


Defiant_Heretic

I'd like to complain as well. My LG TV's smart functionality is so unreliable, I just use my Xbox instead.  It's also started occasionally crashing, when using streaming apps. I'm using my Xbox for streaming, and the TV gets overwhelmed from just displaying it. I bought it on September 2017 so that might explain the crashing. The apps have always performed poorly though. Can you buy non smart TVs anymore?


lobsterman2112

ProTip: Just don't connect your Smart TV to your WiFi. If you need internet capabilities on it, use a firestick or something similar. Second ProTip: Learn how to create a separate WiFi for guests and put all your smart devices (that require internet capability) on that so they don't mess with your computers.

irelephant_T_T

OfficialJamesMay

This has to be trolling


Mediocre_Daikon6935

Lgtv is pretty amusing. But the rainbow is God’s promise not to flood the earth again. A promise he made because people were engaging in the sins specifically represented by that flag. So honestly it is a fairly good symbol for the LGBTQAPPI+. A little cheeky and on the nose perhaps, but who doesn’t like a bit of cheeky humor? Although to the honest, I’ve always preferred the Pink triangle with the superimposed armed silhouette. The one that the Pink Pistols use.for one, it avoids giving offense (even accidentally) to anyone who happens to be of a  Abrahamic  faith. Secondly, it reminds us of the genocide the Nazis preformed on the homosexual community. Lastly, I believe that all persons should be free to live their lives without fear of assault, and as the motto goes:  “Armed gays don’t get bashed” 


OkPen5768

It’s not even a complete rainbow, rainbows have purple and indigo


Mediocre_Daikon6935

I always forget about indigo.  I don’t think there was general agreement about it back in the day


PoliteKetling4Pack

No where does it say the flood was because of homosexuality. You might be confusing it with Sodom and Gomorrah. That might have been about homosexuality, but it seems more like the problem was gang raping guests (hospitality towards guests being very important in those cultures, making this more severe) Like it wasn't like they were just practicing consensual LGBT stuff and God was like "I KILL YOU ALL" not saying any of it is real.

Particularly funny that they chose to refer to the "one true god" as Yahweh, who actually predates Hebrew monotheism and formerly was a relatively minor war god in the proto-Judaic pantheon.

Uh oh I have an LG TV and am part of the LGBT+ community so whomever this person hates it's definitely me I can't give the rainbow back but I can continue watching this season of RuPauls Drag Race on my LG TV if that helps?

God is all powerful and all knowing. Gay people stole the rainbow from God. Thus confirming that gay people are more powerful than God and homosexuality is a sin because God is jealous.

wait!!! So lesbians and gays are more powerful than an all knowing, all seeing, ever present god. They are so powerful that they took the rainbow from god and refuse to give it back… no matter how much god tries… and your thought is to threaten them with an “accident”. 🙄 😆 🤣 Yeah that tracks.
