"Woke" Franchises

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power adds non-binary character

It's vital to have non-binary representation in animated shows amid today's culture, said Tobia, who earlier this year, released their memoir Sissy: A Coming-of-Gender Story.

I am in awe that the people behind this show had the audacity to pull something like this. They even outright admit that this is part of an attempt to indoctrinate kids to their way of thinking; that this sort of behavior is not only okay, but something to aspire to. They want your kids to grow up to look like this... "person":

Spoiler

I don't want to say that you can't do a character like that at all (Kamen Rider Gaim's Oren Pierre Alfonzo, aka Kamen Rider Bravo, being just one example of how to do it right); but they are not painting themselves in the best light with how they're marketing this new addition to the cast.

Unless there exist people who were born with both male and female genitals or neither, I wouldn’t take anybody using the term nonbinary seriously to begin with

Y'all do realize She-Ra has had implicitly queer undertones since season 1 and explicitly in season 2 right?

It's pretty gay already, adding Enbies isn't going to make it "more woke" than it already was.

Also She-Ra's horse named itself Swift Wind for "The Swift Winds of Revolution" and his three favorite things are "Apples, Hay, and tearing down unjust hierarchies."

TheQuartering was right, it's CuLtUrAl MaRxIsT pRoPaGaNdA and I love that it makes y'all so mad. Here's wishing for the destruction of "traditional family values".

Like, She-ra is explicitly a woke show. There is no point in complaining about it. Just don't watch it and don't show it to your kids.

While I'm sure you are just mocking and all. I still thank you for admitting that the bold is your goal.

As I’ve said in other threads before

There’s a HUGE backload of stuff they can watch from the past

HUGE backload of comics, manga and books they can read too

I’d suggest having your kids read HP Lovecraft instead of Harry Potter as children

I'm not mocking, I have no need to mock. "Traditional Family Values" are a fabrication of the modernity you all so hate.

Again, thank you for admitting it.

I mean, I can understand Old Shera fans exist and hate this or at least those I have seen claim they are fans. They have a right to hate this and bitch but just like with Star Wars. All we can do is ignore all this new shit and keep to the old.

If people are gonna do LGB shipping, it may as well be on the couples that work or look good together

Like Joseph and Caesar.....I meant SHIZA!!!

The ones done by the West don’t work

Except when they’re unintentional like Harry Dresden X John Marcone, I’m a guy and even I see that as looking good together

ALSO actually LOOK both nice, FUCK the CalArts style....just go with anime art

All we can do is ignore all this new shit and keep to the old.

How will we move forward if we just keep looking to past works for our entertainment though? Once that backlog is finished(takes a long while but it will)

New seasons or new series or new episodes are stuff that help keep a mind entertained?

Though from what I know, new Powerpuff Girls TV Show was crap, watch the old one

Genndy Tartavotsky did Samurai Jack’s final season with great respect and love and knew what kept us entertained

 

[CarlManvers2019]

Is this WOKE? Tell me(God I wish Date A Live was a Magcial Girl Warrior-Yuri series instead of harem without enough action to satisfy me)

 

[Comrade Sophia]

You're doing wokeness wrong.

Thats why we try and keep what stuff that has not been invaded from being invaded.

 

[CarlManvers2019]

Nah, too pretty and good at looking like a girl

And hell, is it wrong if I think that Conservative Writers end up writing “minority characters” as actually people? Much better

Read Travis J Corcoran’s Aristillus, the titular moon city is actually made up of internationals and they work just fine with people of other races and nationalities.....mostly helps that they share a collective trauma to do with earth governments “helping” them

 

[LifeisTiresome]

Ha.

Masculinity is bourgeois.

See. What did I tell you @CarlManvers2019

You remember my posts about Sweden?

Sending you a pm.

Actually I did; and I have no problem with those queer undertones. You're talking to a guy who's favorite anime franchise is Nanoha; who's two main female characters eventually sleep in the same bed, and adopt a child together. What I have a problem with is the idea that gender is "diverse" and exists on a "spectrum"; which is blatantly not true. There are two biological genders, male and female; everything else is nothing more than buying into gendered stereotypes, i.e. that certain things are owned by certain genders, and cannot be touched by the other.

Wearing a dress and putting on lipstick neither makes you more a woman, nor less of a man; and I hate that this "diversity of genders" bullhonkey is ruining all the work that was done to let people be people, instead of being defined by their gender. For a while there, we were making real progress in letting boys play with dolls without being called girls, but now all of that is gone; thanks to identitarians, who think what you are matters far more than who you are.

How about you repost said Sweden pics

Those dudes can’t even dress as girls right or shave

I mean you're welcome to your totally uneducated opinion but the actual scientific consensus is that gender is a social construct and we all exist somewhere on a bimodal spectrum independent of chromosomal (there's actually seven of these per the WHO) and gonadal sex.

Prove it. Because right now, you're just unthinkingly parroting ideological talking points.

Sure, define female.

 

[Terthna]

Sure, define female.

Let's just go with the most relevant dictionary definition:

1 a (1) : of, relating to, or being the sex that typically has the capacity to bear young or produce eggs
In a field of milkweed, I watched a female monarch butterfly deposit a single egg on the underside of a leaf.— Tom Tyning
