Studying other cultures, and even your own, and you will soon discover strange, exotic forms of prejudice and discrimination that you never thought existed.

All this gets extra silly given Transformers is routinely rebooted all the time and rarely bothers to maintain consistency even within a particular incarnation. With the original show probably being the least consistent of all. Also, isn't there a giant Optimus Prime status somewhere in China?

Basically, how Transformers actually reproduce is different in every single incarnation, and often each one has two or three entirely different means of doing so. Sometimes they're literally built and mass-produced in factories, sometimes they're cloned and grown in vats, sometimes they spring to life spontaneously when a plot device touches any random junk. (Literally) Any random poo poo you come up with is probably true somewhere, though they usually find human reproduction really weird. Also means you have some that are literally born yesterday alongside others who are casually references as being older than the human species. Funny thing, Steven Universe does about the same thing except with the aliens being strictly all-female, with the only male being a hybrid whose creation involved the effective death of his mother. deadgoon posted:that was true in the 80s but the audience for the contemporary comic is an odd combination of middle-aged turbonerd nostalgists and the young tumblr side of the fandom that draws tons and tons of yaoi about the robots This is true for all comics. About half the industry still pretends they have a reason to be child-friendly even though children do not know that comics exist. It's a more niche market than Warhammer.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:IMO it's kind of cool that a comic for kids has Megatron doing Maoist poetry. Again, children do not read this. They do not know that these exist. These are made for adult nerds.

get that OUT of my face posted:you know that you're going to get a lecture about the finer points of exclusionary idpol if you engage with anybody on the internet that has a steven universe avatar That is true. Kinda funny given the show has had episodes about dealing with extremists in your movement trying to drive you to violence, how annoying and damaging 'allies' who think they're the heroes of the story are, and mindfulness and cognitive therapy. The show is clearly aware of its fans and trying to un-break their brains a little bit.

It teaches kids that if you kiss a girl, you'll fuse with them into a teenage hermaphrodite.
