she-ra, Eager Young Queer Leftists
Aaaand another vital queer creator is canceled for minor infractions of Proper Courtly Queer Etiquette. Now it's Noelle Stephenson of She-Ra, for some offense she apparently committed on a chat -- and even after reading the list of complaints I confess I STILL DON'T EVEN KNOW WTF IS GOING ON.
Fuck. This. Whole. Subculture.
I am out. I don't think I can even call myself a "queer ally" anymore. I've got your backs when the shit *actually* hits the fan, but I have got nothing but hostility left for these little armchair crusaders and I'm not going to fight on their site in these increasingly petty and stupid culture wars.
They deserve Trump and vice versa. A pox on both their houses, Kuwabatake Sanjuro Was Right, and so forth.

She repeated a pun about Bow having a brother named Sow who's a farmer.
And she quoted the name of a podcast with the, quote, "D-slur" in it.
Oh, and the only non-binary character in the show is "cast as a pedo" because they shapeshifted into a child -- for eminently sensible and unrelated plot reasons.
That's it.
I. Want. People. To. Die.
re: she-ra, Eager Young Queer Leftists
I was wondering what the supposed racist comment was. "Sow"? That's IT? It's the Dean scream all over again.
I heard right-wing pundits complaining about the Dean scream for a while before I got to actually hear a recording of the scream itself. I was picturing Howard Dean writhing on the stage, speaking in tongues, gibbering madly, exsanguinating from all orifices, what have you...
Then the scream itself was just like, "Haaaah!" And I was boggled. That was IT?!
re: she-ra, Eager Young Queer Leftists
Hmm, based on some comments I saw somewhere, this may have been one of those 4chan false flag concern-troll psyop thingies.
re: she-ra, Eager Young Queer Leftists
@KinkyTurtle Got a link by any chance, I'm curious.
re: she-ra, Eager Young Queer Leftists
Nah, at this point, no idea where I saw that. Possibly in the replies of what I think was the original tweet where Noelle posted the Bow drawings.

@zebratron2084 This is a weird position where I have not been thrilled about she-ra and DO think there are some problematic stuff in there that I'm irritated other queer folks hand-wave off, but it's also None Of That Shit
re: she-ra, Eager Young Queer Leftists
Seriously. You ever wonder if maybe some of the people complaining about us HAVE A COUPLE OF DECENT FUCKING POINTS?
Don't worry, all they've done is convince me that both sides need to be burnt to the ground, Trump first then this bullshit, and replaced with... anything, really.
