You don't understand what "pandering" or "trend" means then. It was seen as the norm because they specifically catered to said crowd. And they did it because they believed it would make them money.

'lifesaving'
If I'd known that transitioning was a thing and that it was okay to be a trans woman instead of some fetishist creepy murdery thing only deviants do? I'd have transitioned sooner. Instead I had years of socially ingrained bullshit to unlearn. So basically? Shut the fuck up, this actually will save lives by helping normalize trans people and painting our struggles as valid and genuine.

If appealing to white men wasn't lucrative, Superman wouldn't have been a white man.

See, we can do it too.

And if pandering to straight white men wasn't profitable in the past, you wouldn't have a majority of the characters we do now.

90% of the population aren't straight, white men lol

And even if it were, that wouldn't mean they aren't pandering to them. The term isn't dependent on percentages.

We never claimed that but nice try at moving the goalposts. We were talking about how you seem to be ok when pandering goes in only one direction.

...

So why is it when a company caters to heterosexual men and ignores everyone else it's "Companies exist to make money, of course they're doing this!"

But when a company does something to reach out to a minority group... it's suddenly pandering and suddenly "chasing market trends" is bad?

LGBTQ+ acceptance is becoming more mainstream. Companies will either adapt, or fall to the wayside.

I see no problems with a black trans Amazon.

Depends on your religion.

I think the earliest reincarnation stories were a Semitic Zeus/Dionysus coming back the same for spring time

That kinda sounds more like resurrection than reincarnation.

That doesn't mean what you think it does. The author and DC comics are two seperate entities. But I see you're ignoring how wrong you've been proven on the subject of pandering and have decided to pivot to this strawman lol

It seems in the 6th century that Dionysus was evoked for reincarnation

I guess I'll stick to the Hindu view on it

My hunch is that the mere mention of a black trans character was enough to trigger him, but he can't admit that, so he's going to pretend like it's another issue entirely.

Honestly though, if you're so mentally fragile that you're at risk of killing yourself unless there's "representation" for you in the media, then you're probably better off in a straitjacket and a padded room for your own protection.
