They even had to cut a trans character from the film because of the studio. Switch was supposed to be masc in the real world and femme in the Matrix.

OK sweetie 

I have no dog in this fight but asking “who cares” is never a genuine question. It’s very easy to see who cares - the people talking about it. It’s a dismissive rhetorical device, one used to shut down conversations not start them.

The mental gymnastics of the people here who would absolutely use terms like “clearly they were very good friends and lived together as spinsters for decades” in another time is truly impressive.

I love how MAGA Chuds still get the squeamies over cussing online. They’ll say the vilest, most bigoted, demeaning, dehumanizing shit and then stick a dollar sign in “as$hole” because they don’t want to make mama mad.

It’s funny to me that you’re this much of a cunt but won’t type out the word cunt.

Yes, as sarcastro said below, related to the fact that it’s not novel or clever is the fact that every time it’s brought up people explain why it isn’t a good or valid point. And as I said, bringing it up like those prior conversations haven’t happened just makes it look like you’re simply ignorant of the many many…

Sure it does, because the reasons it isn’t valid have already been discussed ad nauseum because it isn’t new or clever.

You completely avoided, like, all of my points.

Someone always brings this up as if it’s a clever or novel idea. It’s not, and presenting it as if it’s a clever or interesting argument sure makes it seem like you don’t really understand the issues at play at all. Like, even a little bit.

The thing you’re completely missing is context. It’s twofold here. Point One, the example you chose, Power Man/Luke Cage, is indelibly tied to the “Blaxploitation” era of films, and thus his race is actually pretty crucial to the character. Almost every time a white character is reimagined as a different race, their…

I am - if he decided to USE the thing *as a tool in grading papers* I absolutely 100% would expect him to know the bare minimum (we’re talking a 5 minute youtube video worth of information here) about what an LLM is and isn’t.

not even chose to be abused! chose to have a personality and interests that could, hypothetically, lead you to a situation where you’re abused.

I hope you don’t spend your entire life under the delusion that you are yourself because you decided to be that way. Because not only is it patently false, it’s exceedingly ungrateful.

Trying to launder right wing bigotry by comparing it to rightly calling out anti-semitism is so transparent

if i say ‘come over to eat some ice cream’ and after we have ice cream i punch you in the face, you’re saying it’s your fault because you chose to value ice cream?

 you really aren't too smart

 that's simple - because it's true 

Actually, that’s sort of how it works in real life. People are randomly queer and non-white ‘out of nowhere’ all around you. They don’t have an interesting backstory about their queerness or skin color for your entertainment/justification.

have you considered, for one goddamn moment, that this essay is not a Phoenix Wright game, but a plea for engineers to think beyond just the immediate first puzzle and to think of wider implications, you fucking fool
