Saw this little propaganda tidbit from the official Netflix bios for the actors in Squid Game. I didn't realize it was literally just a man playing a tranny. That makes that whole inclusion worth it just because it will get the Internet troons stinkditches in a twist. I find it hilarious because it shows that a tranny "woman", and a man playing a role are interchangeable, there is no line where a man couldn't easily represent a tranny as an actor. Maybe this will finally show them that there is a fundamental difference between the way Western and Eastern societies handle transgender ideology, and their whole existence is a bubble. Plus, nothing is more funny than watching trannies seethe over cultures that don't agree with their maladapted worldview, especially when its a nonwhite race, they can't say anything because it would be perceived as racism. Most likely they just ignore it and change the narrative so something obviously making fun of men that want to be women is actually a "trans coded" character (and why that's a good thing). It makes me wonder how much had to be changed regarding the way people treated the tranny character to make it more palatable for Western audiences. It's worth noting that they got a tranny to do the voice in English.
It would be interesting to actually hear the opinion of any Korean Kiwis, if there are any, on how accurate it is about how they treat trannies in Korea. It would be even funnier if there's anything that got cut for the West because it was too based and dunked on trannies too hard.
The most unrealistic part was when an old woman, and a pregnant woman, two very vulnerable types, let him follow them into the bathroom at night and nobody expressed any kind of worry. I was really hoping the guards would have slammed the door in his face in that scene, it really seemed like that was where it was going. Better yet if they forced him to use the men's bathroom at gunpoint for "muh trauma".
In the scene when he was talking about using the money on stinkditch surgery, I was making myself laugh because I was imagining him saying the money was for a revision because he got botched the first time. Which honestly is better motivation that has real stakes like he might die from an infected axewound if he can't get it fixed. Not just him saying "I need the money that you would use to save your life, or the life of your loved ones, so I can move to Thailand and turn my peepee inside out." I don't know how any of the characters didn't just outright say that the tranny's motivation is entirely founded on something ultimately inconsequential compared to not being killed by a loan shark for your organs.
Another funny thing is there's an implication that a lot of participants of this game were approached as they were about to commit suicide, so I guarantee you the tranny got in the game because he was about to join the 41%. If they show he literally was going to ack himself with a noose, it would be peak fucking comedy.
Also I found it hilarious that the tranny character was always the one that would scream in his very female voice and do very feminine things like threaten people with violence. (I watched the Korean version with the original man voice)
He pretty much dropped all pretenses at the end that he was trying to pass too, I want a based arc where he realizes that none of that shit actually matters and goes on to detransition.

I will probably save my non troon related thoughts on the season for when it finishes proper. Any small gripes or questions I had could be resolved or explained by the end, so I don't want to start formulating a final opinion on only half of the conclusion. For what it's worth, Seasons 2 and 3 were written as one story, so I would rather judge it based on the intent of the writers. I think Netflix chopping it up like they did is a disservice that definitely negatively affected the pacing and the way the story has played out so far.
"Season 2" is actually just the first part of the rest of the series and was split into separate seasons so Netflix could capitalize on the hype more than once and make the big marketing bucks from using the IP to promote Doritos and Domino's Pizza. Wait until summer for "Season 3" to air because the story doesn't have a conclusion and you aren't missing anything by waiting 6 more months. It has the added advantage of less money in Netflix's pockets because you only need to pay for one month to watch it all instead of one now and one later, which is what they're counting on. (That is, if you're not watching it some other way, that for legal reasons, I absolutely have no idea about)
