    Ms. Marvel was actually really fun when it came out last year, though I didn’t doubt it would be a good watch.

    Well, as good as it is, it's a little on the dull side. GOOD though, but I like eye candy graphics. I remember the cartoons but it was a very busy time in my life, and no time for toons ;)

    Aren't girls who want to be boys are called "tomboys?" That term has been around since the days of my youth, some 1 million moons ago.

    A television program, run by private enterprise, is now called "indoctrination." Is that the same type of "indoctrination" advertisers use to entice you to buy their products while using sexual innuendo in doing so?

    My argument is pointing out hypocrisy of only minding when a white character is not played by a white actor but not the reverse

    Normal people are the ones who don't agree with pushing sexually deviant and mentally ill ideas in cartoons targeted to children.

    Normal people agree that a person pretending they are the opposite sex is abnormal

    Sounds like you’re proving my point. There was no liberal outrage and no whining posts like this one.

    Soooo it seems I’ve taken some heat here in this thread to talking bad about other posters regarding this subject, even though I absolutely don’t see what the point is in complaining about this, especially when many of you have never seen a single episode. So in light of that I think I’ll educate some of you on this subject

    To make a long story short, The Transformers franchise began in 1984 as a toy franchise, courtesy of Hasbro. The story of the entire series is about giant alien robots that can transform (hence the name) into other things, be it vehicles, ships, guns, robot dinosaurs, animals etc. These giant alien robots are constantly fighting a war for control and they’re split between two factions: Autobots and Decepticons

    The first and original cartoon, nicknamed G1, came out in 1984 and since then there’s been a ton of different series and iterations of Transformers, and there’s even been some live action movies based off the series.

    The show was originally released on Netflix in November 2022 for the first 9 episodes and anoather 9 episodes was released in March 2023. And Megan Kelly is just now writing about this? LOL. It has been out and was evident in the first few episodes with a new creation called "Terrans." They are supposed to be a new form of Autobots in which they have human companions to guide them, quite literally, bound together cybernetically. It is an offshoot of another type of autobot/decepticon that the comic books created some 10 years ago and were introduced in one of the Transformers movies. I think it was dark side of the moon or the one before that.

    Normal people also know that arguing about this in cartoons they don’t watch is incredibly fcking stupid.

    But that shouldn’t be a shock, as that’s part of her character.

    Sorry but it doesn't make me less than my potential to have my opinion that people pushing these mental illnesses on society as somehow normal, are anything but normal.

    Sorry but race doesn't have anything to do with this..... Nice try but it's too transparent.

    Wow I'm starting to sense a little bit of hostility here....

    They are targeting children with propaganda inserted into cartoons. This concerns normal people

    I sort of love the fact that they are upset about a couple of pronouns and not the fact that they are talking about imaginary giant robots trashing whole cities :p

    Good grief! You must be the only person in America to remember that! I do know though that there was an outcry when people wore yellow face for “cloud atlas”.

    You'll be happy to hear I was recently at a school"s end of year festival. The kids had a tug of war. When the 7th grade girls went against the 8th grade girls a gay boy tried to participate with the 7th grade girls. All the 8th grade girls went crazy and said *that's a boy! They have a boy on their team." The 7th grade girls told him to get lost and he walked away.
