Meme about gatekeeping causes some , and Media literacy at an all-time high!

That is not a coherent statement. Stories are stories, r-slur.

I figured it was about chivalry tbh. I mean they're called fricking Jedi Knights and they use magic light swords and have some "code" about upholding honor or whatever. (Yes yes I know IRL knights weren't necessarily super noble but I'm talking about the abstract concept of chivalry.)

The power of MANY!

It's clearly about freedom-loving ancaps defeating space communism

There's nothing politically deep to explore

And yet they managed to frick up doing a fairy tale in space. I don't expect my Star Wars to have any profound insights, I expect it to be fun. Hollywood won't even let us have that anymore.

A ripoff of King Arthur in Space and Dune

They love to spout off about what Gene Roddenberry believed in but there's a lot of things about him they forget. Like that he was a bomber pilot in WW2. So no, he was not woke. He did not ask the tail gunner which pronouns he's using on each mission or let the navigator go have a cry over how stressful his job is. He did not put up for a vote which target they were going to attack. Every guy was expected to do his job to the utmost until that plane landed.

Also btw Gene Roddenberry was horribly misogynist even by the standards of his time. These tards just go by what he said at conventions, not what he said behind closed doors and not how he treated women.

The primary problem with Nu-Trek is that NONE of the writers ever served in the military so they have ZERO idea how Navy Officers behave or act.

Soft, weak women would get boxed out waaaaay before they get control of a ship.

Yeah, when I complain about something being "woke" I'm not complaining that there's like, a black or female actor in it. I'm complaining that it's written super poorly as a way to do insincere political pandering. If you write a good story and just let the character be a good character without being fricking weird about it there's not a problem. The only exception to that is s, probably, because I am legitimately bigoted as frick against s and I never want to see one on my screen in any context.

The worst is that Current Year media is so obsessed with their overly smug circlejerk that I almost have to deliberately avoid anything prominently featuring minority characters to get a good story. Bitches can't just write a character anymore.

Foid fatigue is real

NuTrek bad.

did foids really save star trek when roddenberry was misogynistic as frick and it did just fine in the 60s to 80s without that woman's touch?

The Dance of the Dragons is a cautionary tale on the dangers of foidery. Rhaenyra Targaryen made sense as heir while Viserys I had no sons, Aegon II claim was always stronger than hers but the girlboss decided to risk a civil war that would kill hundreds of thousands and almost destroy her House while being manipulated by murderous sigma psychopath Daemon (only based black) because she can't resist Big Valyrian Peepee.

!bookworms

!humans humanmisia

>normalcy cultists

!grillers ummm, is this directed at us????

Yeah i prefer the term "non-defective people" over "normal people"

>why can't you be normal just please stop sucking peepee all the time

>No

Shut up cissy

!humans thoughts?

No it isn't.

!bookworms whatever you may think of GRRM he said Daemon Targaryen was his favorite Fire and Blood character. Meanwhile some fans are like:

>NOO YOU CAN'T ROOT FOR DAEMON! HE KILLED HIS WIFE AND CHOKED GIRLBOSS RHAENYRA

Though most of ASOIAF villains are fairly despicable or just grotesque and hard to root for (Cersei, Walder Frey, Roose Bolton, Ramsay Snow, Craster). He wants us to dislike Tywin Lannister and Randyll Tarly too though they're cooler.

No it's about knowing that cool movies are satire and you're not supposed to cheer for the protagonist.

Wrong. Rowling's description of bankers is more akin to "Mein Kampf"

@Sylveon the frick is that?
