Harry Potter fans will insist to me there's nothing wrong with supporting the franchise and continuing to engage with it, and then everybody who agrees with them is a loud and proud Nazi. Okay.
Opinion that other "leftists" might hate me for: you should not even be making video essays about Harry Potter unless it's to criticize its problematic elements. Promoting her moneymaker is an act of support for Rowling and it gets women killed.
Hate when I want to engage with Harry Potter guilt-free but I suddenly have to think about how my continued support of the franchise costs trans women their rights and lives. I'm a privileged arse and if I just pretend the problem doesn't exist, it stops existing.
In the Mario Teaches Typing games, Mario never criticizes the player for underperforming and tries to be understanding and supportive. According to Charles Martinet, that was his initiative, as he felt being negative would go against the core principles of Mario's character.
@TerryBiteZC@MarkDressgax4@Velkynoss@sportdrink "good man" and he repeatedly mocked the deaths of innocent children, spouted vile racist and sexist rhetoric, was incredibly transphobic, etc etc.
Petra Parker came from a place to make Spider-Man into a beautiful trans woman to appreciate where as Draco Malfoid was made by pedophiles so they can objectify another child.

The "malfoid" trend is a psyop to give cis "allies" an excuse to engage with Harry Potter in a way that *seems like* they're spiting Rowling so they can feel better about giving her more money to fund her terf garbage.
In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.
@MasterQua2ki it's kinda a huge issue with ninjago suit design rn actually. zane nya and euphrasia have very similar blues + jay is already "the blue ninja" so half the team uses blue as a main colour and it throws the whole balance off.
@MasterQua2ki zane needs to stay in his lane and drop the blue. it was nice as a minor accent colour but his suits have gone way too far with it. he needs to go back to light grey or silver, or use a much lighter softer blue instead.
