I'm saying that there's nothing wrong with people being unable or unwilling to distinguish between what they like more and what they find "better", that's it.

Ah, I disagree, but I'm heavy into debating people so I need that distinction. I also think people should think more critically about media because if you call something good or bad you may not be able to articulate those feelings because you never thought about it, you only know about the enjoyment, or lack thereof, that you felt. Not outright become critics or anything, but just thinking more than how much you liked it.
I guess it's really only an issue if you want to discuss the good and bad of something over just loving/hating it.
Edit: Yup, referring to Yamato as "her".
Edit 2: Several people referring to him as "her".
Edit 3: "a strong nakama, a female nakama, and potentially a devil fruit"

TLOU part 2 and One Piece bought out the worse in their respective fanbases :(
Whenever we talk One Piece in here, it's 99% random questions so you fit right in.
I think they can have an evenish fight for awhile. I think Zoro would win, but Jimbei would hold his own for a good bit.
I'd reverse that; rn I think Bei would win, by the end I think Zoro would wax him.
I just popped in to see how chaotic it was, and the new nakama discussion is going about as well as you'd think. I did catch tekking use Yamato's preferred pronouns, so I think that makes four: tekking, Artur, Joygirl, and Randy. I always thought tekking avoided the subject entirely by always referring to Yamato by name, but non-scripted he does use he/him for Yamato.
Rogersbase isn't there atm, but not a good showing for this group as a whole if only 4/16 are saying he.
I don't see why it's so hard, I bet people would be stumbling over themselves to correct it if someone kept saying "Trace" but everyone is just letting this "she/her" thing slide, even calling him a "female".
Re: Admirals - Kizaru probably has the best overall fruit, but he lacks Akainus tenacity. Imagine if Akainu was sent to Sabaody. Dead Supernovas. All dead.
My guess is that they don't want to turn things into a big argument, but yeah, this really isn't a good look for anyone.
Akainu would just burn down the whole Archipelago rather than let anybody get away, tbh.
What's there to argue? The series refers to him as "he", the characters in the series refers to him as "he", how can anyone argue against not calling him "he".
I don't like getting reductive with people's mindsets, but it's Youtube and I can be reductive. Going all the way back to Chp 984:
YouTube: Sideboob
(Yes, this was his response to Yamato dropping the mask and stating "I choose to be a man, too." Just Sideboob.)
And yet:
Oda: Sideboob
YouTube: Sideboob
(Yes, this was his response to Yamato dropping the mask and stating "I choose to be a man, too." Just Sideboob.)

Oda: Sideboob
Either it's transphobia, or it's the lack of balls to fight against their community's transphobia. Which is also transphobia.
Let me on the Reverie. I'll set them straight. Too many people all trying to be polite to each other because they don't know each other well enough to challenge a real difference of opinion publicly. You want to call Yamato a woman? Fine. Tell me why. Tell me why you can't at least use gender neutral terms. The real reason please, not this half-assed "Oda Box" bullshit.
You really would think that would be enough, right? I've seen people write straight up fanfiction that Oda hasn't even remotely implied in the slightest to continue to misgender Yamato. Some people are real dedicated to their transphobia.

You'll just get demonetized don't worry swear all you want
I mean if it's Reddit, you gonna be there all day sadly
But yea, if you can't do it amongst your fellow YouTubers, that's a bad look
I would gladly ruin the whole vibe to call them out on the Yamato topic
People are actually so fucking stupid on that part. Panels upon panels that depict people referring to Yamato as he, son, evil look when referred to as daughter vs 1 intro box including his sex. That's what these dumbasses cite as their defense.
Movie hits hard. Seen it twice and it's still really difficult to watch.
I think for the bigots that Oda box is old news. Now they're pointing to Stephen's translation of Vol. 98's cover as proof. That's now TWO pieces of "evidence" for their bigotry.

We fighting bruh
Touches my soul
KoL is a bitch ass hater I did not know that about him
How tf you gon be Black and then be a piece of shit about other minority demographics, how fucking blind and ignorant can you be bruh, shit makes me fucking mad

Should I buy Fire Emblem Awakening Reyes, you played it right
Yup, stopped watching his stuff after seeing this
Yup, stopped watching his stuff after seeing this
Awakening is alright, revived the franchise but the map design is garbage and the game is so strained resource wise. The developers cut the feet off everyone's character models to make sure the game would run fine.
I swore of all reactors after finding out the only one I liked was a Vic defender (thanks to morlas pointing it out). The ones continuing to show their ass about Yams and just being openly homophobic when they feel like it. Are a disgrace.
Unfortunately, homophobia and transphobia still runs deep in the black community. It's legit disgusting hearing people around me talking about trans people.

Sure, was my first Fire Emblem game its fun.
Reminds me of FF8 and how you can easily break the game difficulty wise if you know what your doing, been meaning to do a run in the game again myself.
The game also has Shipping, so its Shipping Pirates approved.
Yep, ain't nothing more irritating than watching other black folk behave like and engage with the same sorts of bigots that would happily crush us as well. All that celebrating over Jimbei beating down Who's Who when they're more similar to him then they would ever acknowledge.

The thing that I guess some transphobic don't know (or care to learn there dipshits either way) is that you don't have to go through surgery, hormone treatment, etc to be transgender
I have to wonder if the Straw Hat's Beast Pirate disguises were made solely for merch purposes. Especially since Luffy loses it really quickly. Like it was an editorial mandate or something.
It gave us the Robin & Boss Jinbe gag, so it was worth it
True. I do look forward to how the anime does that. Big playing against type moment.

Since Dressrosa where outfit changes became so constant even flashbacks had people change into new outfits. I've figured Oda has been going overboard with different outfits for figures and stuff like Treasure Cruise. Don't think it is an editorial thing cause not a lot of the jump line up does near as many outfit changes as One Piece.
