Watched it again recently, liked it more than before. Why didn't Nic Cage and Sean Bean just work together from the start? When a knife does more permanent damage than a lightsaber... She's supposed to be a disabled female who mentors a straight white dude, why change that? Ep 4: Turns out Kang wasn’t the true threat… How do you pronounce his first name? Whatever happened to Sarahs' summercamp friend, Aubrey? Barry technically should’ve recognized Bruce at the end, why didn’t he? "Unusual voting activity" for Little Mermaid but not this? How did a light-skinned Dom and Elsa produce a black-ish boy? View all posts >

There was nothing stopping trans people from buying beer before, and there's nothing stopping them now. They hired him because his trans, to show that it's cool to be trans when its not, it's unhealthy and self-destructive. Calling people's concerns a conspiracy theory these days is basically a confirmation. Surrogacy and in vitro fertilization still requires the fusion of a sperm and egg, which is a heterosexual process. If there's no need, then the pushback shouldn't be a problem. Mean-spirited jokes about killing someone and parading his corpse are harmful; at the very least they're disturbing and suspicious. It make sense that the person targeted, and his followers, would take them as a threat. And their fears were validated when two people tried to assassinate him. Why else would they market a trans person? And I already said it that using a schizo in the same manner would’ve been just as bad, and seen as encouraging schizophrenia. Gay people can only adopt kids, who have been made through heterosexual intercourse. There’s no need to put homosexuality in kids stuff, the fact that people (not necessarily you) get triggered by the pushback only makes supporters look more suspicious. I never said anything about any jokes being off limits, nor have I seen anyone push for such things. I’m saying that there is merit in criticizing leftist “jokes” since they border on threats. I'll say again: transgenderism should not be celebrated, it should be treated like the disease it is. Putting a trans woman on a drink says it's ok to be sick and delusional. Nobody agrees with that, and nobody wants an ugly dude in a dress and wig on their drink. If the cis man's schizophrenia was celebrated and emphasized in the marketing, it'd be equally as bad. Most people are straight, and straight people make kids. If you wanna tell kids about gay people, wait till they're older, otherwise put it in a movie or show where it won't stick out like a sore thumb. I have yet to see anyone angry that a woman is the playable character in GTA 6. If there is, they are an extreme minority even among right wingers. I've only seen people worry that GTA 6 will be woke. If you need proof, just look at the development team, and remember that it's current year, meaning every major gaming company has gone woke. When conservative comedians hold a severed Biden head, post paintings of Captain America holding Biden's head, and make mock-plays of stabbing Biden like Caesar, then you can compare the two. Otherwise, the jokes rightwingers made of Biden and his supporters aren't at all the same as what leftwingers say about Trump and his supporters. Nobody wants to see a trans person on their drink. Transexuality/transgenderism is a mental disease that shouldn't be celebrated at all, let alone used as a marketing tactic. Nobody wants to see lesbians kissing in a kids' movie. People are concerned that the woman in GTA 6 is gonna be a woke girlboss; other than that, they have no problem with a woman being playable, other GTAs have done that. I don't know enough about Lizzo playing a flute, but I do know people don't like her in general, especially after it was revealed that she hates other fat people. TDS is an actual issue, and all the "jokes" I've seen from the left are mean-spirited and not funny. None of that suggests the right are the new snowflakes. All their reactions so far have been justified and appropriate. Those "examples" are vague descriptions that don't specify or prove anything. What are they complaining about that’s ridiculous? And what valid stuff are they overreacting about? I have yet to see any examples of the right becoming the new snowflakes. Your post lacks context to say otherwise. I <i>have</i> seen the right, and the center, and the center-left, justifiably react against the slop that’s infected their spaces the last 10+ years. Except now it looks like someone even better took over, and its a woman too. Any attacks towards her could be seen as sexist and misogynistic. I'm not the one who's calling the show woke, OP is. However, he's not wrong in suspecting any current western work starring women, since Hollywood has ruined its reputation so badly with its bad faith and radical agendas. It'll be years, if not decades, for people to trust them again. <blockquote> woman in prominent roles is something that always existed. </blockquote> Never said it wasn't. But there's a difference between having women in prominent roles, and doing it while humiliating men. The latter is what's been going on since at least 2016. There is clearly an agenda for race, LGBT, and women. View all replies >
