Geeks + Gamers & "His True Enemy" | The Last Jedi Videos, Part 6

[@CH4R10T_TV]

Hey everybody! Been a weird week, huh? I hope you enjoy this brief video essay in my TLJV series. It was made possible by hard work of the folks over at the Fandom Initiative, whose work is linked in the description. They've been doing this for a long time and I thought it was about time I made reference to them here. You can find some links to their work in the description. Have a great weekend!

Loving this series. Criticism of bad media criticism is my favorite genre of video essay. Please keep it up ❤

He “reacted” to the Fallout Show trailer when that dropped. Anytime a person of color was on screen, he just started repeating “diversity! Diversity!”

[@PopCounterCultureEd]

Thanks for the shout out!

[@CH4R10T_TV]

Of course! Your video was a banger!

[@PopCounterCultureEd]

@@CH4R10T_TV I'm glad you think so, I'm really proud of it myself :)

The Brie Larson montage was funny

[@jaymurphy7342]

Always happy when there's a new Cherry vid! This series is always so well done I'm always excited for a new one.

"We recognize it's a slur but it's what *they* would have said and written 300 years ago so we we're not removing it" Okay then Jeremy, there's another actually well known slur that would have been said 300 and written 300 years ago but you're curiously disinterested invoking that one publicly in your writing.

Funnily enough, I seem to recall Dane making the same point. Interesting how he'll run with one when he thinks he can get away with it, but not the other.

[@koen5727]

I've been looking forward to this 🧛

While the sequels were a disorganized game of UNO, with many problematic qualities, the dishonest and problematic feedback of these commentators isn't constructive, and doesn't help the future of Star Wars.

[@mysterioso2006]

damn what??? ? i watched heelvsbabyface for his wow/smite content 10 years ago, wtf happened?

[@C4MG1RL]

I don't know why but seeing a cute anime girl giving a bright smile when I KNOW the scene the hood is from is Anakin slaughtering the Separatist leaders keeps making me laugh every time it pops up. I have to alt+tab lol. Grifter, to me, is when a content creator changes their opinion to whatever stance feeds outrage for profit. But, importantly, it's something they don't actually have a strong opinion on it. They just take the stance for the money or support it brings. Nick Fuentez isn't a christian. He's a grifter using faith to justify his trash and gain support. Jeremy admits that he pumps out rage bait BUT I'm not too sure that he fits the "doesn't actually believe it" category. It seems more like he's not a grifter but just a rage baiter and a yellow journalist (I'm bringing it back... okay but unironically people should use the term more lol) Unfortunately a lot of Star Wars, gaming... anything nerd culture online is composed of rage baiters. Master rage baiters. Raging master baiters?

Heelsvsbabyface's pronouns are brie/brim.

[@ericowens854]

I noticed you didn’t put up a domain name for the definition of “bad faith” you used in the beginning, also at about the 06:09 minute mark there was no date for the last of the three clips.

[@CH4R10T_TV]

I'm not sure what you mean by there not being a date at the timestamp you mentioned; there are two clips from two sources at that timestamp, and both have the year on screen in reference to the uploads.
