Generation Tech was pretty fucking disappointing when he started in with the Chinese-American gusano talking points. EckhartsLadder is lucky that he's too busy doing clickbait slop to stray into anything problematic, kind of like how Star Wars Analyst is more of a lightsaber merch peddler whose ads are interspersed with brief blurbs of Star War slop.

Fuck, I'm caught in a YouTube algorithm bubble, aren't I?

Its funny because the overlap of people who are in to Star Wars and Evangelical Christianity really took me by surprise. How are those two things so closely aligned? And let's face it, remove the people who fundamentally believe it is their obligation to proscribe how and what people think and you get a whole bunch of people who realise that peoples gender identity is none of their damned business.

It's the prequels turning Anakin into a Christ-like figure. Meanwhile, the OT had a conception of the Force based on vaguely Eastern/Orientalist spirituality. Just compare Yoda's monologue about luminous beings are we vs Anakin not being conceived by his parents like the virgin birth of Jesus.

You know I never considered that, I guess I just saw the Asian influences and never considered the parallels to Christian allegory. Makes sense.
