“ace exclusionists and their revision of history”

Oh god dammit, is this one of those motherfuckers who thinks asexuals were “erased” from the AIDS crisis or that documents from the 1800s that labeled women who had grievances like “I don’t want to fuck this 40 year old man I was married off to at 17” were all secretly asexual?
 

When Vin Diesel or Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson picks up a 6'5" 300 lb bad guy and throws him onto a car, it's dumb... but believable. And enjoyable.

When 95 lb manic pixie Margot Robbie does the same, it's not believable. That makes it even dumber, no matter how much your fetishizing of feminist pseudo-empowerment adds some enjoyment to it.

Also, guys watch bad movies and call them bad movies. No one sees Fast & Furious 27 and calls it high art. RedLetterMedia turned this into an entire critiquing genre. But it's the GRRL POWAH side who will desperately defend garbage like Ghostbusters 2016, not for its artistic merit, but for its politics.

In fact, this Tumblr post might be the first time I've seen one of the "watch it because it's women" types admit that they are watching a trashy movie just because of the lead's gender. That's progress, I guess, except she immediately loses all self-awareness and can't understand the appeal of dumb action movies.

There was a brief time when tumblr went nuts for Jupiter Ascending and tried to justify it with "people just hate it because it's a female-led power fantasy film directed by transwomen in a genre that's dominated by men!" or something. Instead of admitting that they just liked a bad film for being unashamedly bad. I mean, it's a film that's awful, incoherent and ridiculous. I love it. Bad space opera type films are one of my favourite kinds.

So yeah, if that person likes ridiculous supervillain films or watching women in films perform impossible feats of strength or beat up men or wear sexy clothing, then more power to them. But I guess tumblr has such a culture of rating media on a scale of problematic to progressive that they can't ever admit that they like something bad, let alone like something "problematic".
If they like something, then it must be good, progressive and diverse. If they dislike it, they'll write paragraphs justifying their dislike by saying it glorifies racism or didn't have enough gay characters or the male characters didn't get kicked in the balls enough times, instead of just admitting that it wasn't for them.

Of course this goes double for films or TV shows they dislike that are popular or win awards, because then it's proof that the media hates female leads/diversity/their personal politics.
 
The best/worst thing about this Vivziepop drama is that you know if you found any of the witchhunters' NSFW blogs, you'd find way, way worse than teen sex and furries.
Funny how they accused her of defending blackface when the stereotypical woke art look like racist caricatures. Like how they draw black people.

I bet they never have seen all the Beast Boy porn.

They're probably closted racists and pedos themselves.
 
Already drama over the latest kids cartoon Hasbin Hotel

"Don't watch! the creator is a literal pedo/zoo! uwu" - We looked at what the creator did 100 years ago and they did a naughty no-no and said a MEANIE word! uwu
"They made a TRANSPHOBIC character!" - We don't like it. It makes fun of us enbies! uwu and they don't talk about how TRANS and GAY they are! uwu
Hazbin's a mediocre cartoon and Vivzie can't design decent characters to save her life but I love the butthurt coming out of it so far.

why are you comparing the Constitution, a legal document, to Harry Potter, a children's fantasy book?? huh???
 
I mean, didn't Vivziepop already make an apology statement about all of those topics?

Drawing pedophilia as an adult isn't exactly something you can apologize for, and apparently Vivzie hired a cult leader/ACTUAL child groomer to work on the cartoon. I think hiring someone who actually grooms kids is something that would put any normal person off of watching something.

The Twitter callout gave me a laugh because they called out the creator for drawing a cartoon of Blaire White and Shoeonhead.

They aren't even getting the complaint right. The problem is not book comparisons.

If someone compares real world politics to Starship Troopers (the book not the movie), that wouldn't be ridiculous because Starship Troopers actually had a lot of overt politics in it. Entire sub-chapters were straight up lectures critiquing the Constitution and arguing in favor of the military action that made up the rest of the novel. It makes sense as a book you enjoyed in your teens which informs your current political outlook.

If the most frequent political comparison you post is "DRUMPF = VOLDEMORT because this policy is unspeakably eeeeeevil zOMg", you need to read another book.
 
Hooooo boy. Care to point out all the misinformation?

Well, in my opinion, it does not matter much if someone in South America invented a compass, if they never did anything with it.

I would me much more impressed if they used the compass to sail to another continent.

Inventing something does not mean all that much.

The thing about posts like this are that they turn something that could be interesting and educational into condescending sniveling.
