Ok, but imagine you're a dipshit who wants to be offended by things.
I'm on lemmy, aren't I?
Good for you, since I truly don't understand what is the problem/joke in this picture at all.
The problem is that the OP might not be joking but rather is just catastrophically dense about how simple words work.
Either that or there's no problem and the replier and I both missed that OP WAS joking, which we really can't know for sure since Poe‘s Law has effectively been rendered moot by the new heights of stupidity circulating everywhere 🤷
Took a gander at their profile. Thought it might've been a dedicated satirical troll at first, but they seem to an earnest piece of shit ragebaiter.
Well, thanks anyway.
How fragile do you have to be for a movie to be "ruined" by a few seconds of text being shown on screen.
some people think "wokeness" is as bad as fascism
if the text shown on screen revealed that the protagonist that was portrayed good was a nazi, would saying that the film was ruined by that not be a valid opinion?
this is a problem with misinformation/disinformation (and not questioning their held beliefs), not fragility
some people think
No. They don't. 🤌🏼
Yeah but I'm going to guess the fact that he uses male pronouns wasn't a big reveal or any part of the plot at all, really.
This is a tiny detail that any sane person would just ignore.
They want woke? Cast "Price Adam" as a non-binary they/them who is repulsed by his He-Man form, but learns to cope with it to save the world.
Skeletor should be an overly muscled sexy beast of a skeleton. So, no change.
Skeletor is Jared Leto
Who keeps hiring this rape-cult leader?
You guys have been saying "He" "Man"? I've been pronouncing it Heman?!
Heman likes to visit Yemen.
If my name had a pronoun in it, bet I'd be putting them under my name on everything. Because that's super funny to me
Herman is running circles around the rest of our names.
"who is she taking to?"
"Oh. That's Herman"
Would Herman be she/him?
Oh my god, you’re telling me that He-Man goes by male pronouns? How dare they? Political correctness gone mad.
On an unrelated note, death seems preferable to living in the current timeline. Or is that just me?
just fucking kill me. I can't be part of this species any more
Conversely, it's just as much your species, too. Why should nazis, etc. get a free pass? 🤷🏼♂️✊🏼
Nuh uh. Most of the Internet is bots stirring the pot
So far, "the Internet" isn't a species. Yet. 🤫
I'm reminded of The Summer of 1353 by Flight of the Conchords when I think about He Man.
He/She Shork is next movie.
