This is why I pretty much just try to find blogs and comms that only post official art, screenshots/gifs, and information but they are so incredibly hard to come by.
I think bonnefois hit it dead on with people wanting characters that they can just hollow out completely. But for some reason, people can't accept that other people are projecting on to those characters in different ways and leave it at that. I don't really know how we reached the "I don't agree with it/like it so it shouldn't exist period" point.
But honestly it feels like there's a lot of performance involved. It's to the point where I'm not always sure if people actually care about what they're arguing about or if they just want to latch on to discourse buzzwords to look Woke(TM).
