#but no he is just a misogynistic asshole

[dhurrbyang]

this is why you never learn anything about history from a white man

#white people are experts in stealing stuff oh god #yes this is about james somerton #i am so so so disappointed in him #i got into queer history BECAUSE OF HIM!! #and to find out he's someonw who fabricates & plagiarizes his videos from other smaller queer creators is so so gut punching #i had only watched a few of his videos and planned to dive into his entire catalogue but ughhh #yeah this is about the 4 hr long video essay on youtube plagiarism by hbomberguy #i don't even know what to say #i'm SO angry ugh #the only video i watched which was referenced was the one where becky albertalli commented #i literally corrected him in the comments but thought that he has just been wrong this one time! #but no he is just a misogynistic asshole #go watch alexander avila you guys he's amazing #tree rants #hbomberguy #james somerton #plagiarism

one thing homophobic gamer bros like to say to those who headcanon arthur was gay/bi or ship charthur is that "arthur was likely homophobic bc a lot of people were back then" and like. no??? he wasn't???

arthur meets margaret, the mistress of danger and his reaction is not anger, nor any sort of discomfort around his presence, he's honestly mostly confused and exasperated at his personality, as arthurs old and tired and margaret very well isn't. he isn't cruel to margaret at all and bares no judgement, he only really gets annoyed when margaret says he shouldn't give him the emerald because his dad wouldn't want him to.

he meets mr black and mr white, two men who have recently escaped from prison and watches their relationship change from hatred to love in a handful of meetings, he helps them go on to live a better life and when he figures out that mr black and mr white are in a relationship with one another, he advises them to go and find somewhere safe and secluded because "a lot of people don't like people like him," actively warn them against the type of people the gamer bros accuse him to be.

charles châtenay, comes to arthur while disguised as a woman and all he really is, is confused. charles asks him to help and protect him and arthur does. charles kisses arthur and the only thing he tells him is that "do not do that again," he doesn't yell, he doesn't shoot charles, and he doesn't even stop helping him, all he asks him is to not do that again. he's not even that annoyed, even though he would have been justified to be annoyed in this instance since he wasn't consenting to the kiss.

throughout all of this, there's no anger or discomfort to this, he's just- mostly confused, and once he gets past his confusion, he helps them anyway, even giving them advice and well wishes for them to be safe during this hateful time.

its like- no brad, arthur wasn't homophobic, you are though, and you don't get to hide your homophobia and general discomfort with queer people with a character who rockstar tells you, with a handful of examples, that he has no judgement and hatred towards people who are queer.

#he would. however. shoot YOU brad. he has no tolerance for assholes. and you. are an asshole. #he's honestly as accepting as they come during the 1800s. and I'm tired of misogynistic and homophobic gamer bros assassinating #his character like that. its infuriating and really just reassures me that they do not get the character and the theme of the game at all. #rdr2 #red dead redemption 2 #rdr2 arthur morgan #arthur morgan #rdr2 mr margaret #mr marget #is it mr or mrs for margaret. idk #rdr2 mr black and mr white #mr black and mr white #rdr2 charles chatenay #charles chatenay #strawberry speaks

This man has one the most disgusting personality I've ever seen

But Would I sleep with him???

Atla live action 😐

#thats my honest reaction 😐 #to be fair ive only seen 20 minutes of the s1 finale bc my parents are watching it but. mmmmm kinda mid #like. the casting is definitely an improvement since the last time they tried a live action but it feels like the writing falls flat #or maybe im being harsh bc ive only heard negative criticism on it beforehand. but fr anytime u bring up the original its already #good and not just because its the original. so much fucking detail went into it to the point of someone noticing azula wielding mai's knive #to how well thought out irohs character is used as a way of uniting the cast especially as zukos foil #i heard that sokkas sexism was toned down and i have to agree that feels like a cheap move. like i get WHY they think it would be better #but its not about how that reflects on real world its about how it affects the story. sokka starts out as a misogynistic asshole because #it makes it that much more impactful when he changes. toning that down makes it flatter and makes his character development weak #and someone pointed out they didnt even make him wear the kyoshi warrior uniform and i know it feels like such a small detail but #come on man. they did that in the original because not only does it help him really walk in their shoes - wearing 'feminine' clothing and #makeup and having suki explain its significance but it also ties in with the shows theme of harmony and intersectionality #i was also disappointed when they had the fire sages explain how the water tribe draws power from the moon because in the original it was #IROH who explained it to aang and everyone else BECAUSE we as the audience is under the impression hes with the 'bad guys' #and it builds up to how he learned from the other nations which reconciles his past as a war general and his character overall #AND its an excellent starting point for the cast and audience to understand how the nations arent as closed off as you would think #plus you would think its only fire nation doing propaganda but they expanded on that with earth kingdom censorship and it WORKS #a lot of things in the live action also feel arbitrary like. they gave momo a near death experience for 5 minutes for no reason #im firmly on the stance of bringing back filler moments instead of putting major events right after each other so that u give your #audience a sense of time passing and to really absorb the story. but i think thats more like shock value than filler and yeah its a small #thing to gripe about but those things build up and its really annoying. the thing abt avatar filler moments is that however small #its at least meaningful. hell even the beach episode emphasizes how isolated zuko and his friends are as child soldiers #i also swore to never watch the first live action since it was that bad but i really liked the stylized tattoos they used for aang #anyway. those arejust my thoughts. im not gonna watch the rest because im a ride or die for the original aftr growing up and #rewatching it at least 20 times as a kid. but theres definitely room for improvement and i wish ppl wouldnt take it as 'better' just cuz #netflix is adapting it. i wouldve killed for them to just reanimate the entire avatar series and touch NOTHING ELSE no redub #no changes to the story. just reanimate the thing and leave the rest alone and youd make easy money just the same #ALSO its very jarring not hearing jack desena and dante basco voicing sokka and zuko cause their voices were the most recognizable to me #i get that its because its live action but im allowed to feel a little sad abt that. and uncle irohs accent was really soothing #yapping

HAND OVER THE FF LESTAPPEN

alright, check it out

Charles blames the Instagram algorithm, when one day she’s scrolling aimlessly only to come across pictures of Max Verstappen in a bikini. 

Max lounging on her stomach across a sunbed under the European sun next to a cerulean sea, the band of her dark blue bikini riding up, sitting snug across her muscular shoulders peppered with moles and the unmistakable shape of a fading wine-coloured mark high up on the curve of her shoulder that makes something in Charles's throat curdle and sets something strange and deep in her core alight.

She sends it to Pierre immediately, because of course she does. 

Charles Look at this shit. She probably called the paps on herself. 

And that’s the odd feeling deep in her stomach, it’s anger, the fact that Max can be snapped near naked on a strange foreign beach without consequence and Charles has to be careful that the knee-length skirt she wears on errands in Monaco doesn’t get blown up, lest she gets another embarrassing lecture from Mattia on her public image. Be careful Charletta, he would say, Santina is a better nickname than Puttana. Puttana, a fitting word to describe Max’s recent endeavours, really. Charles’s socials have been pushing her the pictures all week. Max outside bars, hanging onto tall men who make more in a year than Charles would care to mention, their young pretty wives off to the side with them, seemingly resigned to the fate of what’s happening. After all, who could compete with Max Verstappen, champion of the world?

#the vague idea is charles leclerc heavily repressed lesbian with a shit ton of internalised misogyny AND lesbophobia #also in this version charles gets the nickname santina instead of/on top of el predestinata #mainly because of this whole idea in media culture of women must be passive in their narrative #basically it's fi takes on a man-centred world view and takes an unwilling ff lestappen along with her #lestappen #fic bits #also charles is still charles because a. i cannot name swap when i genderbend #and b. i decided charles was catholic so it would be appropriate for her to just be named maria charles leclerc #and she goes by charles obviously because everyone and their mother has the first name maria in southern europe #ALSO MATTIA USES THE DIMINUTIVE FORM WITH CHARLES'S NAME BECAUSE HE'S A MISOGYNISTIC ASSHOLE! #anyway fun facts with fi #i've thought this out #maybe now that work calms down i'll get around to writing this properly i anticipate it to be maybe like a 30k oneshot

[eebie]

id make egbert watch this shit with me hed hate it so much Id trick him into it id be like "Hey bro come sit on the couch next 2 me i found something really cool we can watch" And he'd be really skeptical hed be like "is it That lame dinosaur show again you know i cant stand that shit!!!" and it'd be like 5 minutes of me reassuring him that No its not Dinosaurs (1991) again that im not messing with him i pinky swear before he'd finally sit on the couch And then id turn on the tv and it's the intro for Dinosaurs (1991)

#my rambles #homestuck #i sincerely love watching this show Its so terrible but theres an episode where the dad learns to be not homophobic And its pretty cool #also the son dinhosaurs a piece of shit but its not his fault Some episodes he's a feminist and progressive and shit #and then others he's made into this raging misogynist asshole Just bc its convenient #i love the granny dinosaur shes the only one whose name i consistently remember her name is Ethyl i think . however its spelled

this line is so fucking funny to me because it implies ried could hear julius and subaru’s conversation on the stairway and was listening in like the homophobic star wars slug

#re:zero #i mean unless he means it earnestly and isnt just calling them gay as an insult but like #but theres absolutely zero chance thats the case. he an asshole. hes a misogynist already hes probably homophobic too #like hes the biggest jerk ever! he sucks! #thats fine bc hes written to be a jerk but man hes a jerk

elektra is my beautiful princess who i've really yet to know in comics but understand she is important to me i wish everyone who hates on her in the show would die

#everyone who hates on her being the usually racist and/or misogynistic show fans. or ppl who just hate her bc 'she's meeeaaaan to matt😠🥺' #shut the hell up he is also a fucking asshole and mean to her too. idgaf. anyways #she's still my special princess even from show alone. i love her. my sweety #static.soundz

[shadwife]

Everyone hates Marlin for some reason. Why? Because he’s ugly? Because he hates women? Grow up.

#they toned him down so much in the new game #it’s really sad #I *liked* that he was an asshole #who said things so misogynistic that even other characters would go ‘dude what’s your problem?’ #and who repeatedly compares you to the one who got away your entire life #it made things more interesting #urgh #I have the old game and a crt and a wii now… #so I’m tempted to just play the old one #but I’ve gotten finish this first

Stan when any of his guy friends don't pay attention to him for five minutes: uwu i'm just a sad wittle boy 😢

Stan when his girlfriend wants his attention or any kind of communication whatsoever: um okay 😒 needy b*tch

#south park spoilers #stan marsh: the new randy! #south park #i don't want to seem like i automatically HATE it when a south park character is an asshole or a misogynist #because that is ...the only explanation its just blatant misogyny he doesn't like her as a person he doesn't even like her as a girlfriend #he just wants her to be there when HE wants her #and thats fine in a comedy! you can do that!.....if you make jokes~ #if i want to watch a guy be a jerk to women for thirty minutes i can go literally anywhere i don't need to go to a comedy show for that #like i'm HERE because the egg-shaped construction paper babies are terrible and it makes sense when they're written as like kids too #instead of just the mouthpiece of a bitter old man who hates his wife probably #because when you don't make jokes about it or even care about the story you're writing...that's just what it is #it doesn't seem like the person writing it is even having a good time exploring this side to Stan or any of the characters #so whats the point? why am I here? i don't want to watch your rough draft of your woman-hating agenda #its just not good but its not even not-good in an interesting way its in a boring old man way #which is the REAL crime in entertainment

A funny, kinda annoying thing I see a lot as someone who’s read my fair share of m/m fanfic is watching women (cuz 99.9% of the writers tend to be women) trying to figure out how guys talk to each other and just making them like. Really gross and weirdly misogynistic for the sake of “authenticity” in male interactions akdjks. Like the guys will just be like “chicks are great, I love fucking them and looking at their fat tits and never calling them again when they get all clingy” and you look at the character saying this and its like Luigi

#the klock keeps ticking #its one thing if the guys youre writing are supposed to be kinda shitty and it gets addressed #but ive just seen it pop up with the most random ass characters lol #like in some ry/min fics i remember one where they were talking and mentioned some woman and ryan was just like ‘yeah what a stupid bitch’ #like AAAAAAAAAA why did you just make him say that he would not fucking say that 😭 #its especially weird given how like i said this pops up in gay fics and trust me gay men can be assholes im aware #but in my experience like idk me and other guys are never just like. haha fucking WOMEN amirite #maybe its cuz im not a complete asshole and i like talking to guys who are also not assholes #in cases where some guy youre talking to does say something misogynistic like. at the very fucking least youll think to yourself #wow this guy is a misogynistic asshole! #idk how to articulate this its just a thing i see a lot and i hate it #unless youre gonna do something with it AND its in character just like. stopppp writing all this misogyny??? #stop it! get some help! #also this isnt me complaining about women writing m/m fics cuz id have nothing without them akdjsk #its just. one of those fandom misogyny things that should stop

um yeah this is an utterly bizarre thing to say like no one is calling him a pedophile they're literally just making fun of how he was mean to a teenage girl for being cringe and then writes supernatural fanfiction. to me its about the frankly misogynistic condescension that everything you do is profound if you approach it as a white man with an MFA and anyone who disturbs your Great Work is deserving of abuse for the moral crime of being stupid BUT even without going there its literally just lighthearted taking the piss bc I think if your whole persona is being excessively condescending bc ur so above it all then yeah it's really funny if u write sherlock and supernatural fanfiction and listen to Cake.

i wwonder how this aged after his continued escapades but either way you're literally the one who made the leap from "watches show for teens" to "pedophile" like please point to the part of this that actually evokes that remotely in any way. getting so so tired of people who act like this you need to grow up

#literally can't believe my eyes how many ppl are standing up in their seats to laud him for bullying a teenage girl #it's fucking foul behaviour if any other 50 year old man spoke to a teen girl like that you'd be shitting on him too!!! #also the willingness to embrace the idea that being stupid is a moral failing #sorry sometimes 16 year old girls aren't smart #it's always this tone like. a GAY man openly LUSTING for other MEN like girl we're all gay too get the fuck over urself #it's such insecure behaviour. if u like his poetry like his poetry my favourite poet was probably an asshole too #luckily he's dead. #I also like hesitate to say but it literally always feels misogynistic when people defend a gay man like this to an audience of mostly gay #women. like of course we're just prudes and our way of being gay isn't profound enough so we're basically straight people #and we wouldn't even get it and we're getting gay men killed or whayever #ALSO let's be clear I don't gaf abt tbis mans however I keep seeing these takes and it concerns me in that it reveals ur misanthropy

This part of the editorial from 2099 (pic sourced from this post) is so interesting to me because i don’t even think the idea of Miguel having these kinds of flaws is uninteresting or impossible, but I just personally would never have come to this conclusion just based on the text.

Like, when I personally look at how Miguel and Dana interact, I don’t see any indication that he emotionally condescends to having a relationship with her, when you’d think this strain of elitism should shine through in some part of their relationship at least initially in his arc.

I don’t look at Xina and Miguel’s interactions and interpret any sense him feeling threatened by her intelligence (even if we're just talking purely pre-spidermanning), when you’d think an element of that would be present, even in a flashback. He was a callous dickhead about the cheating explanation, but that alone without some corresponding behaviour to how he speaks to/treats Dana, even just as a flashback, just doesn’t offer the bridging piece to displaying what the authorial intent apparently was, at least for me.

Also, and by god we always come back to Dana’s writing being so damn lazy, but if Miguel - even if only at first - sought Dana out due to the emotional convenience she provided, what has prompted enough change that he is willing to bear and forgive actions like her seeking out the company of the man who drugged him when she wants to needle Miguel.

ALSO. PETER DAVID I AM SPEAKING DIRECTLY INTO YOUR EAR RN. ITS VERY SILLY TO ME TO POINT OUT THE MISOGYNISTIC STREAK INTENDED IN MIGUEL’S ACTIONS HERE BUT THEN LITERALLY JUST NOT BOTHER TO MAKE THE WOMAN THIS IS ABOUT MAKE LIKE. SENSE WHEN YOU WROTE HER. OFFER NO EXPLORATION INTO WHAT HER ACTIONS SPEAK TO IN HER PERSON AND DELVE INTO WHAT CONTRADICTORY ACTS MIGHT TELL US ABOUT HER.

#'a component to miguel's cheating is misogynistic thinking' AND IS THE MISOGYNISTIC THINKING IN THE ROOM WITH US NOW #idk idk...i genuinely have no issue with grappling w this as a character flaw of his i just would never have come to this conclusion on my #own PURELY from how he treated dana and xina. absolute asshole move w how he spoke of the cheating intially to xina #but that alone just makes him an asshole. not someone who felt threatened by her intelligence and THATS the piece that i dont personally se #in the text. #not to mention. the way dana and miguel's relationship is tonally depicted just. speaks of some lvl of sincerity to me. miguel isn't an #overly physically affectionate person and the times he does display that are really interesting (holding Gabriel when the abuse was going o #holding Xina when she blamed herself for Dana's death etc etc) #and then you have the way he holds Dana when he accidentally hits her while hallucinating from the rapture. he calls her lover and honey. #they cuddle in the bath that one time together. he recognises he hasnt been spending enough time w her and went to invite her out because o #it. and yeah. some of these we can absolutely chalk up to the character development hes having at the same time due to spidermanning but #even BEFORE that its like. it feels tonally dissonant to even try read Dana's actions at face value because the narrative doesnt CARE #about them making sense as part of a coherent whole person who thinks and rationalises actions to achieve a certain outcome or satisfy a #desire. it doesnt CARE enough to give her that sadly and so youre just left like. what does this relationship mean to these two characters? #for one party in particular i genuinely have no idea. and i dont know what to infer is the reason for a change from the mentality outlined #as authorial intent. because i didnt get that impression in the first place. #tunes talks 2099 #tunes talks critical #long post
