To honor Transgender Day of Visibility on Wednesday, Lucasfilm debuted an exclusive cover of the “Star Wars: The High Republic” comic book series that features two trans non-binary characters.

“In honor of #TransDayOfVisibility we’re proud to unveil an exclusive cover highlighting Terec and Ceret, trans non-binary Jedi, currently featured in Marvel’s The High Republic comic,” the Instagram post read. “We support trans lives and we are passionate and committed to broadening our representation in a galaxy far far way.”

First observed in 2014, the holiday is dedicated to celebrating transgender people and bringing awareness to the discrimination and violence they face. President Joe Biden issued the first presidential proclamation that recognized the holiday.


Making their first appearance in the second issue of “Star Wars: The High Republic,” Terec and Ceret are Jedi bond-twins from the planet Kotab. Analytical and inquisitive, they have a linked consciousness and frequently finish each other’s sentences, even when they aren’t in the same room.


The “Star Wars” universe has introduced a vast number of creatures and characters over the last few decades, becoming a fertile landscape for diversity and inclusion. While Terec and Ceret may be the first trans non-binary Jedi characters, it isn’t the first time trans and non-binary characters have appeared in the larger franchise. Introduced in tie-in novels in 2016 and 2018 respectively, the first two trans non-binary characters to appear in “Star Wars” canon were pirate ruler Eleodie Maracavanya and aspiring scoundrel Taka Jamoreesa.


In late 2020, “Star Wars: Squadrons” introduced a Mirialan pilot named Keo Venzee who used they/them pronouns. The video game portrayed them as a wise-cracking joker with a Keo was revealed to be Force-sensitive, they quickly dismissed this power by saying their abilities were just a hunch. The campaign left Keo’s storyline unresolved, opening up the possibilities of the character showing up in future stories.

I'm more interested in the hutt tied up in the background with a guys tied to him/riding him. What's going on there? THAT'S the Star Wars I want to know about! Perfectly good premise, ruined by genderqueers begging for attention in the foreground.

Honestly, Hutts are under utilized imo.

Rather than jidais and mangolorians, i'd make a Star Wars story where a Hutt cartel is the focus.

They spend way too much time on backwoods desert planets to pay so little attention to the Hutts. A group of heroes trying to free their planet from Hutt overlords has much more basis in lore than Mandalorians or some obscure Force stuff.

I’ve actually seen Bible Man and it’s actually so bad it’s good. Nothing Wokies create is enjoyable. If you’re enjoying the lecture then you’re not getting the intended effect.

I cited Bible Man to illustrate my point because that's something most people would have heard of, I could cite worse examples like Colby or The Donut Man but most people have would have no idea what I'm talking about.

Bible Man's alright with me, he's a way cooler superhero and offers more genuine entertainment value than any Woke take on a superhero like Kamala Khan or any highly Woke piece of media period.

REEEEEE CHRISTIANITY BAD!

People have got to get past the old attitudes about Christianity, this isn't the 1980s, the 1990s or the 2000s anymore, today's church ladies are SJW feminists who are far more uncompromising than all but the most diehard fundamentalists from back in the day were.

Right. Satanism is just sociopathy/narcissism pretending to be religion and yet imbeciles still defend it.

That's exactly what it is.

Satanism means “followers of the Liar.” Totally trustworthy and not trying to gaslight people into believe evil is good.

You've hit the nail on the head again.

REEEEEE CHRISTIANITY BAD!

Never said it was. If you think me pointing out that Abrahamic god is a dick that kills a lot of people means Christianity is bad that's on you.

Nah fundies are still as bad as SJWs (if not worse) at least in certain regions. Where I live they're still usually the ones pushing for stupid-ass laws derived entirely from their shitty beliefs. Shit, my state only got sunday alcohol sales within the last decade.

Sjws and fundies deserve each other tbh.

 

[AMHOLIO]

Lol Disney did the barest minimum they could do. Congrats, you're basically invisible troons. The only reason we know you're there is because every so often we hear you shrieking, or like the comic, one of you gets hurt.

At least diehard Christians from back in the day had children, families, communities and lives outside of pop culture.

Even worse are their names, they're the same but the spelling is reversed:

talk about creativity by "broadening our representation".

Yeah and that's part of the problem tbh. Way more fundies have kids they abuse than sjws. Plus having large communities is how they're able to do shit like control local government.

Sjws suck, but I'll take them whining about shitty pop culture over fundies trying to create theocracies and abusing their kids.

I'm assuming they're aliens? Either way yeah the designs are kinda boring.

Troons reproduce through brainwashing idiots into following their agenda.
Its a fucking mind virus and a zombie plague far more dangerous than any physical disease from what the Farms makes it out to be.

Also Troons are the very hypocritical insufferable entitled pricks they claim to be against and wonder why people dont want them around.

So they'll abuse your kids instead. Real smart move, brainiac.

Posts like these make me miss the dumb rating. This reeeing always makes me want to play psychologist with euphorics. She’s not even correct. Trans children is abuse on a scale like nothing we’ve seen in this country* and it’s worse than pedophilia. You can heal from PTSD but you can heal a sex change without a literal miracle.

*Don’t ask me to find the source but the government itself did an investigation on sex abuse in public schools and found the pedophilia is likely a thousand times worse than that of the Catholic Church, but you actually have a choice to send your children to mass.

The official Star Wars Twitter has 5.3k reactions, 600 shares, and 2k comments on something they made 1/2 an hour ago, time wise. That's fucking pathetic for a multimedia franchise. Merch sales are in the goddamn toilet and the entire franchise is on life support. I hope it dies, truly and finally soon. It's like Alzheimer's. The body is there, the soul is gone, and you just want to smother it with a pillow so it stops humiliating itself, stumbling around scared, confused, and unaware.

It stopped being "official" star wars after the farce engorges was a poorly written genderbent interpretation of A New Hope and they couldnt be bothered to even MENTION the 30+ years of universally accepted fan canon they threw away for no reason like the Eclipse super star destroyer from the thrawn trilogy which was literally a far more mobile mini death star with a super laser if they absolutely couldnt make a movie without a fucking death star. *Spoiler* (they cant)


Its feels like some faggot breaking into your house just to destroy your family history and fortunately most of the fans didnt fall for that shit and they had to backpedal hard into even stuff like Rogue Squadron and even put thrawn, tie defenders, and captain Rex into that Rebels show as fan service mostly. (Probably wont even mention Wedge Antilles who was in A New hope and TESB as the second in command and then leader of Rogue Squadron even in the games after Luke and just replace him with a dyke and some random fucking "Aliens" that belong in the chronicles of fucking Narnia like their Episode 9 "designs" in EAfront 2.)

Not only was TFA an inferior product perfectly encompassing JJ Abrams's stunning lack of creativity, talent, or intelligence (it is exactly what a 6 year old would consider "Star Wars, but better": bigger numbers, more flashing lights, less coherence, the good guy always wins), but it was a horrible forewarning of what was to come, starring an invincible, unlikable Mary Sue. A wooden plank of a character, mouth agape, stumbling through the plot with no initiative, reminding me of Bella from Twilight more than any Jedi. Never once does M'Rey Sue take an action of her own initiative and never once is anything her fault, she wins every encounter and solves every problem without effort, yet the movie drunkenly lurches from recycled plot point to recycled plot point, guided by the empty promises of thin smoke and faded, cracked mirrors.

I could've, hell, any one of us could've made a better Star Wars movie if given a tenth the budget. That's what pisses me off. What pissed me off more was Disney not hesitating to slander all who disliked their garbage as Nazis.

To this day and for the rest of my life, I will not refer to the garbage shat out by Disney as Sequel. It is, was, and always shall be the Disney Trilogy, whenever I mention it, and I always mention it in disgust.

That JJ faggot even admitted he wasnt a fan of either series in a interview, and he tried to "change it into something he liked" instead of just making more of what was already there with at least some minor reverence to the source material and looks like the stereotypical reddit soycuck.

I like Rey, Beowulf and most versions of Superman are much worse Mary Sues. Some of y'all act like Rey raped your wife and killed your baby or some shit.

Y'all treat Rey the way euphorics treat Christianity. Though at least people have actually been harmed by (extremist) versions of Christianity.

I like Rey, Beowulf and most versions of Superman are much worse Mary Sues. Some of y'all act like Rey raped your wife and killed your baby or some shit.

What is a Mary Sue? A Mary Sue is a character without meaningful flaw or obstacle, who doesn't have issues, and who wins because the plot mandates it. Let's take Superman. Superman usually fights enemies of equal or superior strength to him. Sure, Superman could totally kill the fuck out of Rey, because he can walk through supernovas no problem, but that does not a Mary Sue make.

A Mary Sue isn't strong by default, Bella from Twilight is a Mary Sue. A Mary Sue is a character who suffers no consequences for their actions, who is never morally, intellectually, or operationally incorrect. Mary Sues who are new in setting often twist established characters to be inferior in every way to them, and, because the people who write Mary Sues aren't good writers, this usually means making them blisteringly incompetent.

Rey is a Mary Sue. Never once does she err, lose, or suffer any injury (for more than 10 seconds) or setback in any meaningful way. Established competent, charismatic, heroic characters become incompetent, repulsive, and cowardly (Han Solo and Luke Skywalker most egregiously) so Rey is never not in the spotlight. There is never a moment where her arbitrary, unearned skillset isn't more than adequate to win whatever situation she is in. She is a Mary Sue. Anakin Skywalker got routinely wounded and very nearly killed on multiple occasions, despite being the Chosen One. Luke Skywalker got his ass kicked almost nonstop until Return Of The Jedi, and even then, he only defeated Vader by falling for Vader's bait and giving in to his emotions. Anakin and Luke are not Mary Sues, their decisions have direct, negative consequences for them.

Superman can be a Mary Sue, but he is usually not, as he fights either his own nature, or beings powerful enough to hurt him. He has capacity for error and failure, and people don't instantly love him all the time. I don't remember the story of Beowulf well and cannot speak of it here in any good faith.



Note: while I use the phrase "Mary Sue" as unisex, the phrase "Gary Stu" or "Marty Sam" is usually used for male Mary Sues. The term was coined by Paula Smith in the 1973 work "A Trekkie's Tale". This statement here is just to debunk the rumor that the phrase is sexist, a rumor started by Disney themselves.
