[@benadrylcabbagepatch2527]

Not to mention that they’re all white women who I can only describe as “tumblresque” in appearance

[@yoyobeerman1289]

The thing is that there are two versions of "diverse" in the modern American Regressive lexicon. The first (diversity with a lower-case d) is the traditional adjective, defined as differing from one another or composed of distinct or unlike elements or qualities. The second (Diverse, note the capital) is every category of people that does not include straight, white, non-transsexual men. This means that you can simultaneously have a group of people who are 100% Diverse who are also the same exact gender, skin color, and alphabet status. This semantic trick is used to bait unsuspecting people with good intentions who support diversity into supporting the regressive ideology of Diversity furthering the cause of Regressives and making them look more legitimate than they really are. The people in that writing room are part of a political and ideological fringe, but they (and by extension their ideology) appear to be more mainstream than they actually are because they baited a massive media corporation into supporting them.

[@geeswithane7yrago303]

Its not just being all women there are millions of franchises with just men as the writers, but this is just shit??? Why do you people gotta go on to say «ITS MADE BY WOMEN THATS WHY ITS TRADH BØØØAHHH» what? This isnt diverse all the main characters except one is white, and have basic knowledge «wokeness» If this was diverse they wouldnt make the only non white characters assholes, if this was diverse theyd try to make characters interesting. We already have few shows with diversity who could stop getting cancelled or shows who small creators who need support for their peojects. This shit isnt it, it sorta feels like bait

[@Pizzagulper]

When they actually put in the work into the animation and art, I actually like the style. It's friendly, light hearted and adorable. I think the main issue, is that they filled out their staff with people selected for a reason other than talent. If you limit your people like that, then you will inherently have less talent working with you, because you are selecting from a smaller pool. Even within that pool from the specific circle, since you are weighing other variables than talent as above it, then you likely won't even get the best from that circle. The first priority of a plot, is that it needs to be a good plot. Shaping the plot around diversity, is just going to yield a worse plot. If your entire selling point is diversity, then that is all you are going to get, and there will be no plot. No plot, means a bad show. In short, the art is nice when they put the work in, but their priorities weren't where they needed to be to make a good show.

That might not even be a coincidence. I'm a female writer myself and have a much easier time writing male characters than female ones, because I can just write them as characters first and foremost (that just happen to be guys). With female characters there's SO much stuff on my mind because they are supposed to be strong and cool and defy old gender roles but not be too un-girly, not be a not-like-other-girls girl, just as capable as the guys but not powerful or beloved enough to get accused of being a Mary Sue, not too much of a forced thinly veiled political message, but it would be way too insensitive if the politics were COMPLETELY ignored so not that either, also of course different enough from myself to not get accused of self-inserting, but still relateable enough to everyone, yada yada and so on. Considering this writer's room started specifically with a politically charged intent, their female characters were bound to be a mess.

[@user-wn3wv5bx5e]

​@@-opera-1356 Snapdragon doesn't even seem like someone actually trans, just a kid who likes feminine things. There's a difference between liking feminine things and wanting to be female. While I'm not trans myself, the point is that you're unable to be comfortable with your body because of influences and environments that subjected you to it, yet Snapdragon already seemed comfortable with himself since the beginning, the problem was that he wasn't allowed to like certain things as a man. The conflict isn't internal struggle, the conflict was gender roles, and that in itself disputes the idea that he's supposed to be trans as it isn't an internal struggle, rather an external one. I've been close friends with someone trans _before_ she (mtf) was trans, the time we both didn't know what the hell that meant. But I've seen how she's grown, heard what her thoughts are, and seen her internal struggle - It isn't just because gender tropes are imposed on her, not because her father was the literal definition of a male gender trope, but because it's an authentic and personal experience that made her seek out for what was more natural to her. We were 12 year old's at best, yet even I've noticed how different she acts based on personal thoughts. And while I know everyone's experience is different, there's a common numerator and denominator within certain things that becomes a causation for certain aspects in life, and when it comes to being trans - It's inner turmoil or dissatisfaction with the feeling of this certain genitalia, and this is through social environments that built your character. And Snapdragon doesn't seem as so. Sure, his previous environment seemed...manly? I guess? But there isn't inherently wrong with his previous environment, it was that he just needed a bit of disclosure from being manly. Yet notice that the conflict revolves around gender roles, and that only? Like, do you seriously not expect me to think that a man can't express something femininely and still be a man? I also absolutely hate how they're making him this 'twinkish', while hinting that he could be mtf. That's just gross, from a level that it's glorifying how easy it is to be trans, and saying that if any straight man looks like this, he can't be a man. That's just so wrong.

Arcane is a perfect recent example of strong characters that all happen to be diverse. Just like real life, it is what it is. Art is a mirror.

That's what I like about helluva boss. Now (maybe) not an anime but I think it sets a good example for the representation of trans people/diversity. For the context: male imps in the show have black and white striped horns. Female ones fully black. This is like hard coded and can not be broken. But, The main character has a sister millie has a sister, Sally (I think). She is the only female imp in the show to happen to have black and white horns. This oddity was never pointed out, and never mentioned she was a dude once. The only indication were the horns. Her being trans was not a personality trait, that was her sassy nature, but merely a fact in the background.

A bit old guard of me, but I keep thinking back to Superfriends. You know, 1970s cartoon, the Justice League.

That was either the first time they'd been given so much attention, or where they first came to be at *all*. And a whole bunch of them are beloved to this day. Too old? The original Teen Titans cartoon. Ditto the Justice League one, though both weren't quite as ambitious in this respect. Hell, Steven Universe was high-key not fucking around about diversity and covering topics you would *never* think to see in a cartoon at all, let alone one that looked like that. But there was a clear *point* and plot to the show that made all of that work.

Eh, people do grow sometimes. If she's actually being a good person on Twitter then I might as well take her word for it. I mean, one of the central failings of the cult of wokism and cancel culture is that it not only lacks a concept of redemption, but is openly hostile to the concept. Not to get into prophesizing (for the record, I'm not a religious person), but a central appeal of the mainstream Protestant movement is the concept we're all sinners and one can be forgiven for accepting the teachings of Jesus. Again, I'm not telling anyone to go to Jesus, but pointing out that wokism is self-limiting because no one can live up to its concepts. This is true, if for no other reason, than it's a moving target and what was okay, and even demanded yesterday, is verboten tomorrow.

[@LgMONSTAa]

@@JonSmith-hk1bq Yeah but that doesn't really apply in this case since she didn't actually apologise for her old posts or even take responsibility for them.

I block people who are dickheads. Also, nothing is ‘my show.’ I have only ever been one person on a writing staff." She doesn't say sorry once, then shifts the responsibility on Tumblr, and then shuts down conversation about the topic so people can't even disagree with her. She hardly seems like she has actually grown into a better person. She has simply learned which of her opinions put a target on her back when she openly espouses them.
