I’m getting so pissed with people who are saying Gwen isnt trans. Like they’re trying to explain why her dad has a trans patch on his jacket and why she has a trans flag in her room, by saying she supports trans people… wtf???? Literally what ally has a TRANS FLAG, IN THEIR ROOM, BECAUSE THEY SUPPORT TRANS PEOPLE??? That’s some shit closeted me would tell my parents when they saw me drawing rainbows. People that are saying this shit are literally just transphobic and dont want her to be trans. Gwen is trans and fuck everyone that argues against that.
which one of these is the so called “american flag”
In Gwen’s universe trans people took over America and made the trans flag the national flag.
now this may surprise some of the audience, but the majority of humans have to survive a phase called “being a teenager” and the results are often catastrophic
Fiction often imitates real life situations. In fact, fiction is a great way to explore and raise awareness about real things.
It’s not inherently disrespectful to show real things in fiction, or comparing between fiction and real life. It’s all about how you go about it.
Not a cult survivor myself but have spent a lot of time studying them and like statistically if you understand how a cult operates and indoctrinates people you put yourself and your loved ones at a lower risk of being taken in as you will begin to recognise the patterns of indoctrination. There’s way more harm in the fear mongering and sensationalising of cults in news media than there is in critically analysing depictions of cults or cult-like communities in fiction. Fiction can be an educational tool and if more people learn how to spot indoctrination methods because they saw someone draw comparisons to a movie they liked, that’s a net good.
