is my mind broken? this literally caused me to laugh out loud.
like it has nothing to do with velma, it is "celebrating" a choice that only specific people would care about, made by a massive corporate entity for the purpose of drumming up controversy. it is celebrating an attribute that changed in a fictional character.
its basically saying "AND THAT'S A GOOD THING" but unironically. idk I am just trying to figure out why I find this so funny lol
And it's not like even all iterations of Velma have been made lesbian. Each series is pretty much its own universe. Mystery inc. Velma was explicitly hetero, dating Shaggy.
I remember watching this back in 2015. Velma never got together with her. Hot Dog Water was into her tho. Honestly ppl apparently used to joke that Velma might be a lesbian because she looked dainty (ppl would probably do that now for any tattoo covered alt chick). But it is a retcon since she's always had hetro interests. Canon-wise she is dating Johnny Bravo on Cartoon Network.
I'll always stan Johnny Bravo as being misunderstood - his attempts to woo women are chauvinistic but that's because he's incredibly young and inexperienced - he thinks being muscley and acting like some 70s greaser is "cool" and just never learned that it wasn't
all the instances where we see Johnny ACTUALLY with a woman he treats her incredibly well - that female deer he went on a blind date with, he went to extreme lengths to make her happy despite obviously not being into her, and that one secret agent lady that actually had feelings for him, he treated her like more than just a s*x object and they were a pretty mutually-respectful couple.
point is, anyone who thinks Johnny Bravo is sexist is incapable of intelligent thought (or just never watched the show) and will catch these hands

People only said Velma was lezzo because she fit certain lesbian stereotypes. We used to try to say that anyone can be who they want regardless, but now the snake has eaten itself so what stereotypes you fit are the most important things to find out about a person. βSocietyβ decides cartoons like Velma are lesbians in the same way my 6th grade class decided I was gay because I liked to draw. Itβs fricking funny because itβs the same thing that le victims of oppression have to suffer under malicious rightoid regimes

Yes and? The βLBGTQ and/or POC affirmingβ people who perpetrating these stereotypes in fiction are the same people railed against character stereotypes in the first place.
Itβs the type of shit you would see on some cringy teenβs blogpost on /r/TumblrinAction back in 2012 but instead itβs 2022 and Google has bolded the words β**VELMA IS OFFICIALLY A LESBIAN IN NEW CORPORATE NOSTALGIA CASHGRAB SCOOBY DOO FILMβ and given you epilepsy by making your screen rain with ludicrous LGBTQN13BER+ flags.
In 2025, your webcamera will send back your facial expressions to Google to make sure you clapped your hands and said Trans Lives Matter.
they want some controversy? how about they confirm what everybody already knows and make shaggy a canon stoner show saggy doing a fat bong rip in the mystery mobile.
