The Academy Awards used to be a cultural event—now, it’s just an overlong corporate-funded celebrity meetup where the out-of-touch millionaire class gathers to celebrate itself. The general public? They checked out years ago.

✔ Nobody watches. ✔ Nobody cares. ✔ The films being honored are completely irrelevant to the average person.

The Oscars 2025 ceremony was no different—a self-congratulatory, politically charged snoozefest that proves, yet again, that this entire event is nothing but a relic of a bygone era.

📌 WHY THE OSCARS ARE OFFICIALLY DEAD

1️⃣ THE RATINGS FREEFALL: NO ONE WATCHES ANYMORE

📉 Decades ago, the Oscars pulled 40M+ viewers. Now? They barely crack 10M. 📉 Each year, fewer and fewer people bother tuning in. 📉 The majority of the audience is either journalists or industry insiders.

🔥 Why? ✔ People are tired of being lectured by out-of-touch millionaires. ✔ The movies being honored aren’t ones the public actually watches. ✔ The “Hollywood glamour” that once made the Oscars special is long gone.

2️⃣ THE OSCARS ARE COMPLETELY OUT OF TOUCH WITH REALITY

Hollywood still thinks it’s culturally relevant, but the average person doesn’t give a sh*t about what celebrities think anymore.

💀 People are struggling with inflation, real-life problems, and everyday struggles—meanwhile, Hollywood elites are patting themselves on the back in designer outfits that cost more than the average American’s annual salary. 💀 Most people who love movies don’t care about “Oscar-worthy” films—they just want entertainment. 💀 Hollywood keeps pushing activism over storytelling, and the audience is over it.

3️⃣ THE SHOW HAS BECOME A POLITICAL PLATFORM, NOT A CELEBRATION OF FILM

✔ Every acceptance speech is a predictable virtue signal. ✔ The industry treats the event like a corporate-sponsored protest rally. ✔ Actors and directors compete for “most progressive” speech instead of celebrating cinema.

🔥 2025's Oscars were no different:

Adrien Brody? Using his speech to talk about “inclusivity.”

Mikey Madison? Thanking the “sex worker community” in her acceptance speech.

Sean Baker? Lecturing the audience on the importance of theaters.

🚀 Here’s the truth: The average moviegoer just wants good films—not a TED Talk from celebrities who will fly back to their mansions in private jets after the show.

4️⃣ HOLLYWOOD'S SELECTION PROCESS IS RIGGED & EVERYONE KNOWS IT

The Oscars used to celebrate box office hits. Now? The winners are pre-selected by industry politics.

💡 Fact: The majority of Best Picture winners are films most people haven’t even seen. 💡 Fact: The Oscars refuse to honor mainstream blockbusters unless they check the right ideological boxes. 💡 Fact: The industry actively shuns popular films, treating them as “low art.”

📌 2025’s Best Picture winner? Anora—a film that 99% of the public has never heard of. 📌 The real most-watched movies of 2024? Films like Dune: Part Two, action blockbusters, and thrillers—none of which got serious recognition.

5️⃣ THE OSCARS ARE A STATUS GAME, NOT A LEGITIMATE COMPETITION

The Academy Awards aren’t about “honoring the best in cinema.”

✔ They’re about rewarding the best PR campaigns. ✔ They’re about giving trophies to the actors, directors, and studios who play the game. ✔ They’re about pushing Hollywood’s preferred narratives.

🔥 Nobody outside the industry takes these awards seriously anymore.
