a reminder to all trans people: these people want you to be silent, so yell so loud their ears bleed 🏳️⚧️
if you want to silence me in particular, you’ll have to make me stop breathing.
@iaisotria it can, in a vacuum, but with the entire context of Eldia’s history and the very explicit use of “empire,” it’s hard to see it in anything but a bad light. and the Jaegerists don’t just want to reclaim their homeland, they want the entire world flattened
@iaisotria but that’s not what they’re doing. Floch outright wants to create a “New Eldian Empire” and, as we see in the epilogue, Paradis eventually goes to war with the rest of the world. they want restoration (of glory and power) more than preservation
@iaisotria *and again i emphasize, ultranationalist with a fixation on reclaiming past glory. that’s called “palingenetic ultranationalism” and it’s the core myth of fascism
@iaisotria i think you may be hyperfocusing on totalitarianism here (which the Jaegerists still do engage in). Jaegerist ideology is still ultranationalist*, hypermilitarist, exclusionary, and at odds with traditional power structures. it is very deliberately based on fascism.
@iaisotria they’re as close to fascists as you can get in the setting, and their aesthetic in the ch.139 epilogue is clearly rooted in fascist iconography
@iaisotria fascists are also aggressively nationalistic, with a fixation on reclaiming past glory, and militaristic. Floch does desire to centralize power around Eren. i would also not call supporting the Rumbling, which they wanted to wipe out all of humanity, “survival and liberation”
@Nuc004 Chihiro seems difficult to portray, since they have to be feminine, but not too much so that the reveal makes sense. Was there any particular voice direction given for this purpose? Were there any choices you made in the recording booth for it?
@JDVance Sorry but you were the only baby ever worth choosing crack over. Every time your mom neglected you was justified. Sorry. Amy Adams sucked in that movie too, sorry. Nothing you touch ever goes right. You should try some of Elon’s medicine sometime. Sorry.
@JoyMoone@Bonedrinkermp3@Kamiro_yt you didn’t have an actual rebuttal to someone pointing out the sheer idiocy of “just get arrested” so you just brought up an unrelated event that failed and dunked on their pfp
@lastavica45@DZ_Activist48@Dykeocletian thinks they’re Lenin but is too scared to share even a vague example of their alleged direct action. most direct action they’ve ever probably taken is copy-pasting a hammer and sickle and joining the purposeful misunderstanding of a trans woman (where have i heard that before)
