I think as a culture we've gotten far too comfortable being complicit in casual corruption, rationalizing that "it's just the way things are." We should remind ourselves that it doesn't need to be this way.

I too enjoy yelling towards the wind of monopolies.

With all things social media/crowdsourced, the biggest is the most useful, and the most difficult to influence, and the most funded, by all actors.

Your right. Your pushed to read or watch the same shit because of "the algorithm" I'm resigned to the fact ninety percent of the content out there I really want probably has no reviews whatsoever and there is nothing I can do about it if I stay in a corporate ecosystem.

What do you suggest as an alternative in this scenario with Rotten Tomatoes? Nothing really rides on it. People are widely critical of it. I just don't really see a big problem here.

Truth is its own reason for being, even on something as inconsequential as movie reviews. When a society starts letting the corruption creep in, bad things usually follow.
