I rather wished it didn't.Art reflects society. Society has trans people in it. Get over it.
Were all past neo-Marxism. This is real Marxism, not that neo stuff:Neo Marxist. Most of this stuff is Marxist informed. I suspect you know the argument, though. And your last sentence is a bait.
So you have never heard the term Cultural Marxism?Or misinterpreted or not relevant or just confused.
I'll one-up you...The best Star Wars is the one where over 400 people each did a 15 second segment which was then stitched together into the entire movie.

Not from anybody I'd pay attention to.So you have never heard the term Cultural Marxism?
Ok so you did understand what I was referring to and pretended not to so you could get to an insult.Not from anybody I'd pay attention to.
The sense in which I wish there were no trans people is I wish none felt the need to change themselves. I can't say I understand it.
No, I meant exactly what I said. It's a classic example of a scare term assigned to some "other". It doesn't have real meaning outside of the group that considers it pejorative. Outside of that cultural bubble, it's meaningless.Ok so you did understand what I was referring to and pretended not to so you could get to an insult.

I know homosexual and bisexual people and don't know any trans people.

I also don't think minors should be transitioning. I don't think anyone younger than 25 would have the needed life experience to make a good decision. And to be honest I don't see how anyone could ever make such a decision, but I've already admitted not understanding it.
In that case, your argument belongs in a theoretical thread entitled "The Blockbuster is dead."Correct, but there shouldn't be.
If I want to watch a movie about people fighting each other with laser swords, give me a movie where people fighting each other with laser swords. Leave "social commentary" out of it.
Strange how this neo marxism has so pervaded the culture. I cannot imagine contradicting the idea of Privilege or the postmodern nebulous "gender identity" in mixed company. They are both rather radical ideas.
if all manner of underrepresented groups could spend decades seeing themselves, well, underrepresented (and consigned to a limited set of roles), then we straight white men surely can muster up the ability to somehow enjoy adventure movies even if a woman happens to be the lead character or there's a black stormtrooper or there's a trans Jedi.

Not that I care, I've lost interest in SW once George Lucas abandoned the franchise, but this is getting ridiculous...

Can't do that yet. Bad optics. Censorship or conspiracy or whatever. Gotta wait for someone to write something real bad first.
Besides it's still somewhat entertaining....Can't do that yet. Bad optics. Censorship or conspiracy or whatever. Gotta wait for someone to write something real bad first.

I do share one thing with your stated view, though. I honestly cannot understand how you - and even moreso the folks posting explicitly reactionary thngs in this thread about "cultural Marxism" and "social commentary" in movies - can hold the views you do. But live and let live - it's certainly eye-opening, and the exchange of views is definitely something I find useful for examining my own views and working on articulating them.
