And since it's been posted by people specifically looking for that trans imagery, they have a clear bias and narrative.

What I'm saying is, if someone said, in 1999, "hey this film is filled with transgender imagery", I'd buy it.
But now it's just people looking for it.
that's... how literary analysis works dude. essays start with people doing a close reading of the work in question while paying attention to a specific aspect of it. the person was gathering data.

the imagery is all there in the movie. the person on twitter is just pointing it out.

like come on, this is basic stuff that people learn about writing literary essays in high school

this person wasn't even making an argument to begin with -- they watched the movie while paying attention to the imagery associated with trans issues, and they found a ton of it.
