Or, maybe they're both snowflakes and both overreact to one-another. SJW's inject identity politics into stuff, so the reaction is for some people to start looking for SJW's in everything. When you're wearing rose-colored glasses, all the flags look red.


Maybe, but your tone is still "blame the liberal for the conservative's faults". It basically plays into my point.

baws that hate Lady Hero's Journeys
Rey has no hero's journey.

She starts off as a Mary Sue, and just stays the best at everything because she is the best at everything.

Seems like she has no internal conflict at all. Just has shite happen around her, and nothing affects her at all. She is the same person now, but with Jedi powers nobody compares to because. . .frick yeah?

All the women in GoT have a hero's journey on different levels. They all started as far less, and are far more.

Each with flaws, depth, and inner demons.

People had massive material to hate about TLJ, none seem to revolve around the gender of the main protagonist.

Jesus, you damn kids. . .

Are you fricking kidding me?

I have read all the books and watched this show religiously.

I loved Arya being the "hero."

The bitching about "The Long Night" has officially jumped the shark.

First episodes (hell, the first seasons) tracked the books well.

There's nothing wrong with this outcome.

Pick a new hobby. This isn't working for you. Maybe the Home/Garden board?

No I am not. I’m saying both sides fuel each other because there is a segment of society (in each political party) that cannot be happy because they WANT to be offended. They feed off of righteous outrage and need things to be outraged about. This isn’t a left/right problem. It’s a judgemental a-hole problem.

Watching book readers melt this week has been almost as much fun as the episode itself.
