But just in case: you made a prejudiced assumption and then boldly claimed you didn't. And you didn't state an opinion, you presented it as (probable) fact. You can couch it with all the adverbs you want, your own snobby disdain shines right through.
Of course, it isn’t a universal rule, see Dolph Lundgren, etc etc.

Y’all seem to have a hard time accepting that some people might not like propaganda, even if it is propaganda for things you support.
It's not the opposition to propaganda folks bristle with, it's the self-important passive aggressive elitism.
I not only said it, I repeated it, and then re-confirmed that I meant what I originally said.
What's worse, you claimed you didn't make any assumptions, which you very clearly did -- that the writers and performers were uneducated, when in fact they are.
Then when presented with evidence, you doubled down and even still continue to gaslight, hence: disengenous.
Uneducated folks can still make correct assertions, and that's the entire point of science. The idea and supporting observations are meant to drive the conversation, not one's laughably judgemental opinion of the person presenting them.
That's a concept with which you, being so educated, are undoubtedly familiar.
