I don't think Pratchett was as much of a gut punch as Iain Banks but gently caress he went way too soon.

Of all the writers these idiots could have chosen to claim to be one of them, they chose Terry Pratchett? They must never have read even a single one of his books because almost all of them are full of progressive politics, and not just the parts relating to gender.

But of course the real explanation is they just don’t want to acknowledge this fact, because to do so means realizing that they have fond childhood memories of books that, were they to be released today, they would complain about and accuse of being sjw propaganda. Better to just pretend that media was non-political before 2014.

I did the same; I was interested in hearing about Pratchett and watched that but I already know everything I need to know about Prager, his hypocrisy and all his bullshit and didn't feel like listening to more. I'm really glad that the genre of video that's just 'let's dunk on dumb poo poo right wingers say' has largely passed (at least for the likes of hbomb and whatnot) because boy I really don't care what they have to say at this point cause it's the same poo poo they've been saying for years.

Just to expand on this. The right decision of course, handled well.

For those who didn't see it the bit was indeed as Caddy said, and that's how it came across - not as a joke against trans people. But yeah, the usage of the actual word isn't good and obviously is what troubled people.

Caddy has always been trans positive, I think it's fair to put this one down to error and most people seem to be doing just that.

Famous not-assholes such as Dream, the god who, after several thousand years, finds the women he condemned to an eternity of suffering for daring to refuse him, and goes "huh, maybe that wasn't good?"

Morpheus is a gigantic rear end in a top hat. Him finally figuring that out after eons is arguably the main arc of the comic.

Yeah I see what he was going for with that joke but it was still pretty off-putting in practice. Good on him for owning up to it.

Shaun even pulls up a tweet where Gaiman points out that Pratchett was perfectly aware and happy that people responded well to the Discworld dwarfs as a trans allegory:

Yeah, the Moon-as-Goddess being a lovely TERF (because lovely TERF types were the people really into worshipping the Moon-as-Goddess) made complete sense within the world.

I wish I could find this old blog post from a trans writer who was talking about how had done a lot of dunking on Gaiman (and Sandman's Wanda plotline in particular) in her early days, but later recognized that what she was raging against was more the fact that, as a trans teen, Sandman's Wanda plotline was one of the few stories with a trans character she could access.

It will be interesting, I guess, to see how they handle the plot if the Netflix show ends up getting that far.
