“yeah we can always tell when someone is ‘a trans’. they’re not fooling anyone”

literally says SHE looks like an elf, implying she’d make a great zelda

hours later learns she’s trans

“actually thats a man”

She should play a gender swapped link (link was meant to be gender swappable anyways) and zelda should also be played by a trans woman. Then every gamer in the world should be strapped to a chair and forced to watch it angel-biblical

yes yes yes yes sicko-yes

Lmao, I read it that way like 4 times before I noticed and was like "what's wrong with this?"

Who decided to put runes in the herbs anyway? Plants were never meant to read!

We need a special Great Purge that mostly targets star wars youtube channels

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?

[–] Outdoor_Catgirl@hexbear.net 35 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Eckhartsladder posted something about how Israel is committing genocide a while ago and calling it that, so he's at least better than average politically. Also shout-out to A More Civilized Age podcast, they're actually good politically enough to stop doing the disney shows and start covering KotOR RPG because disney plus is on BDS list.

I watch What the Force for star wars although they can veer into lib territory, I like the more feminine & feminist take on star wars media.

[–] Outdoor_Catgirl@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Daughters of Ferrix podcast is something you might enjoy, their recent episode "trans clones" was quite good.

[–] Sinisterium@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago

Oh yes I watch them too!

[–] shads@lemy.lol 23 points 1 month ago (2 children)

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.

[–] AssortedBiscuits@hexbear.net 23 points 1 month ago (2 children)

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.

Evangelical Christianity is popular in America, Star Wars is popular in America, there is bound to be overlap. It's like all that weird Christian Sonic fan art

The American Monomyth is essential to both evangelicalism in america (apparently the resurrection isnt a big thing) and in star wars.

Starwars explained is a harmless lib so he is ok, Corey's Datapad is good, star wars theory is a chud.

there was a socialist star wars channel but i forgot their name

Brother you have literally done more to sell her as Zelda then anyone else. Is she even doing something elven in that second picture or does she just occasionally look like she's already seen my ancestors take this trail before? Sidney Sweeny would never lol.

[–] HiImThomasPynchon@hexbear.net 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Exactly! If there's one defining trait common to all depictions of Princess Zelda, it's her massive rack. awooga

Chosing the most zelda fairy goddess pictures of hunter is probably not the best choice if you want to portray her as “unsuitable” for the role. Also stop fancasting sidney sweeny into everything its giving henry cavil levels of annoying.

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 30 points 1 month ago

Seriously, she looks Hylian in that picture

[–] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago

What if we cast Pedro Pascal as Sidney Sweeney as Zelda?

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Who even is Sidney Sweeney anyway? What sort of great acting roles has she done? I've never seen her in anything, though I'm guessing the way these nerds seem to obsess over her, she has a big rack and was in some marvel slop, right?

I mean, it's a fairy princess. It's a not a real person. I wouldn't care if a cis man played the role if he was good.

[–] EatPotatoes@hexbear.net 37 points 1 month ago

Seriously if they cast our girl, I might actually watch a movie made after 2020.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Is it confirmed the movie is even live action? I had assumed it would be animated and haven't bothered to follow it further cause I'm not gonna watch a Zelda movie

Twitter really likes to promote fascists, like 2-3 days ago there was a tweet talking about going to the auschwitz museum and the talking about how all of it was fake

33k likes and like half a million views

Deeply unserious people

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I don’t think it’s transphobic, just a communication error with: manhunter vs man hunter
