Funko Pops, to me.
I understand that some of them are fairly overpriced, but I also really like them as is. It doesn’t work on all characters, but it sometimes work on a lot and there’s so much representation and variety that it’s good to have a few.
If people want to talk about waste of plastic and vinyl, they should bark at the companies who make teeny tiny figurines that serve no purpose and have so little detail that spending any money on them is a waste.
Trans people
Yeah. I feel like they get so much hate because they are the closest symbol for “maybe things aren’t as clear cut as you thought”, and it freaks people out.
The reason they’re being hated is entirely for religious reasons. Just like any other individual from the LGBTQ umbrella are scorned similarly.
But I have to play devil’s advocate now that I’m thinking of it, but one thing I don’t like about trans people, isn’t just who they are. It’s the spotlight is primarily on them, by a community that had once stressed about caring about all individuals of all backgrounds. Yet, Trans people got all the attention almost and what that has caused is levels of infighting and people giving cold shoulders. They’re from people who’re gay or bisexual (which these days, bisexual people feel shunned the most).
That’s not what should happen but unfortunately, it is and I don’t like that people just suddenly decide who gets more priority over others. That’s not equality.
But I have to play devil’s advocate
That’s not being a devils advocate, it’s just plain transphobia. As if trans people somehow have the power social power to choose the worlds attention.
You say hate is for religious reasons, and then blame the victims of that hate for the attention they’re getting from their oppressors, the very people you yourself just said are responsible for it.
And honest opinion or not, you chose to spend your energy undermining a trans person talking about our oppression, when you could simply have chosen to not do that. And that shit is creating the very problem you just blamed trans people for
Do you even know what a ‘devil’s advocate’ is? No, so you just jump to a baseless assumption instead which clues me in, into how intellectually inefficient you are. A devil’s advocate is “a person who expresses a contentious opinion in order to provoke debate or test the strength of the opposing arguments.”
You continue to entangle and twist the context of my comments to squeeze into your narrative. And you want to talk about undermining? You are truly insufferable. Maybe you ought to take a look into the mirror and understand that your attitude partly contributes to some of the more legitimate problems people have against trans people such as you. And why your kind is being used as a platform to base trans people off as which is trigger-happy, oversensitive, broken people.
Congratulations for proving me right. And this is coming from a non-binary bisexual individual by the way.
