What sorts of improvements would you suggest for them?

My top two would probably be shifting the focus onto Obi Wan as the main character and doing justice to Grievous rather than making him some pussy bitch that loses two hands in under a minute.

Quite a mouthful, innit?

But yes, welcome to my thread where I will attempt to stir some shit by listing controversial opinions and saying that everyone who disagrees with me is an abject moron. Well, maybe not quite in those terms.

Anyways, today's issue focuses around internet culture of progressivism and political correctness, and only naturally will touch on "muh spooky SJWs" for a bit, as well.

So what exactly is that strange phrase up in the title? More likely than not the other three look pretty damn familiar, but what the fuck's a "brogressivism"? Well, recently on the internet as a whole, there seems to be a startling trend of immense acceptance in some areas with almost archaic viewpoints in some others. With a resounding support for three out of four letters of LGBT, voicing that you faced discrimination due to being homosexual, or a woman, or unwealthy? Why, you could get entire websites to rally behind you in the face of these blatant and horrible problems you've faced! Those same websites, however, would claim that a black man was simply "pulling the race card" for his own failures if he said he faced racism at the hands of the police, and a trans woman must just be using slurs and speaking with hatred if she says that she feels oppressed by cis individuals, right?

So, why all of the disparity? Well, that's where the term "brogressive" comes into effect. Basically, the term states that many people on the main areas of widely-used sites such as 4chan, Reddit, and so on will be straight, white, cis males from the ages of about 16 to 25, and these people tend to side with whoever they can identify with most in a given instance. A gay kid being bullied at school? Well, sure, they might not be gay, but plenty of them also faced bullying at school, so let's rally behind the gay kid! A trans woman was beat by coworkers or harassed to suicide? Well, none of them ever experienced dysphoria, so she must have been the one in the wrong!

Of course, trans issues lead us to the other three points on that list - political correctness, South Park, and Cairlyn Jenner - naturally "muh SJW" as well.

There seems to have been a large sentiment on the internet that the culture of the world is getting "too soft," as if respecting other people and their boundaries and generally not being a total cunt to everyone you meet just because you can is some sort of new revolution that them gol-dern lefties have brought upon the world to wreak havoc. I'm not really gonna touch on that too much because the stupidity in that sentence should be pretty damn obvious (hint hint: it's always been a thing to generally not be a cunt and the fact that we've started extending that thing to more and more people by making words like "nigger", "faggot", "trannie", and so on unacceptable only shows a wider range of acceptance, not fucking censorship and the elimination of free speech), but instead will be moving onto specifics. What do I mean by specifics? Well, trans people.

Trans people are in a rather odd place on the internet, since people are stepping forwards to throw praise at the feet of homosexuals but shrink away from trans communities by saying that they're mentally disabled freaks. Brogressivism tends to play a part here, as well, since a resounding part of the transphobic speech tossed around day-to-day seems to be "how dare they try to trick me to make me feel gay!" as if a transgirl's goal is to somehow 'trick' or 'seduce' some poor, innocent cis guy. Oh, the woes of being a middle-class white dude in America.

But the strangest part seems to come about in the whole "anti-PC" culture and the way they go about insulting trans people. Usually the argument is that a trans person's gender identity doesn't exclude them from criticism in other areas. While this sentiment is completely true, it's often only used by people that were going to purposefully misgender them and call them slurs regardless.

South Park is probably the most recent example of this. For those who don't know, a recent episode featured Kyle (who was shown, in an earlier episode [The Cissy] to have dysphoric feelings of his own unless I'm remembering incorrectly and it was Stan - but I digress) stating that, while he respected Caitlyn Jenner's choices on her gender, he did not think of her as any sort of 'hero' - a sentiment shared by many in the trans community because Jenner's sort of a cunt. Cartman stood in for the usual brogressive types trying to be edgy and fighting some over-inflated perceived threat in the name of 'free speech', and a college fraternity (PC Bros) parodied the overly-sensitive types who were quick to jump to the defense of any disparaged community regardless of the topic at hand. Since that episode aired, posters all over reddit often quote "You PC, Bro?" or "WEE-OO WEE-OO" whenever someone states that maybe transgender people should be respected and not looked at as mentally unstable freaks who should be locked up for "destroying their bodies". It's funny, really, because it proves that the point of the episode went sailing way over their heads and into the gotdam stratosphere.

So, uh...I guess that about wraps it up. Not so much a question as much as an opinion/standpoint/discussion topic, but feel free to go haywire n' shit.

Oh, yeah, this would probably also be a good place to mention that thing that I told Bungle a long while ago but haven't mentioned here, yet. I'm not naturally a girl, I'm an MtF transgirl who's been using the whole 'Cindy' persona as a way to curb dysphoria throughout the years. I know, I know, bit of a shocker, but it's kind of become a run-of-the-mill thing for me at this point so you'll excuse me if I didn't type up a ten paragraph rant thing on the subject like I did on bungle. Try not to make this part the focal point of the thread, tho.

Lmao, that depends my nigga.

Does it start with the letter "f" and end with "ilthy junkie whore" and then continue on from there n' shit?

more than likely unless you've cleaned up your act

So then let me sum it up for you,

"I used to admire your skills with the English language, your viewpoints overall, and your general intellect and attitude until I found out that you had, in fact, done hallucinogens. This absolutely destroyed my worldview that everyone who dabbles in intoxication of its varying kinds is a deadbeat loser who will never accomplish anything in life and more or less sent me on a raving, buttmad rampage in which I wished death upon you multiple times."

That about sum it up? The first part, at least.

"...if you're satisfied with your life, then you have some kind of delusion..."

Please discuss how silly this man is

I shan't name names

For those of you who don't know/remember from B.net, I've got a giant, raging hard-on for Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z.
