For anyone who doesn’t know, Arcee is literally trans in the series cannon. She started off as a dude bot and then decided to reconfigure so she was a lady.

At first it was just their reasoning for why she was the only girl robot, but then became specifically queer affirming in later media.

I saw this pop up on the site and I finally logged back on. Edelgard art is like my special interest bat signal.

No, that’s objectively correct. She’s a classical french revolutionary style liberal with proto-socialistic policies (universal education, abolishment of the class and crest systems, gender egalitarianism)

idk I think advertising only goes so far and at least some of it would have made its way into the collective unconscious.

The OG Star Wars were aggressively anti-imperialist films that came out in the middle of a country actually coping with its own naked imperialism. That shit sunk in hard.

This is fun, y’all need to stop being grumpy millennials.

If copyright didn’t exist, we’d see shit like this in every single movie. Think about all of the cultural tropes and signifiers that are just locked up behind bullshit private property laws right now.

These big companies owning so much shit ironically gives us a limited preview of what a world after copyright could look like.

That final ending did suck though, they should have kept circling through powers. Bathos bad.

Tbf I also want to :bonk: Ryan Reynolds so there’s that.
