@The REAL JDA real quick question. Why is it these woke fucktards in SciFi have to make a character gay even if it does nothing to advance the story?

Like for example Finn in the new Star Wars trilogy is clearly in love with Rey in Episode 7, but then randomly someone says he’s gay, despite it having zero bearing on the story, and it undoing the clear infatuation he has for the female lead in a previous film.

Piggy’s latest book features Captain Kamala who’s a lesbian, evidently according to Brothermen who have posted passages here from it, just to be a lesbian. Her sexual orientation does nothing to advance an already shitty story plagued with a bad plot and no well written or thought out overarching arc where her orientation matters. Similar in an episode of the shitty Jordan Peele helmed Twilight Zone reboot in Paramount + which features an episode where the captain of a NASA mission is a lesbian, just so a lesbian is in the story. She literally does nothing with another member of the crew to make this revelation meaningful.

Do you also find it patronizing they just randomly make characters gay, just to say they have a gay character?
Because they’re hack writers and their fans are retarded. It’s a quick way to add “depth” to a character. That’s it. It’s surface level garbage for retarded people. See “Capeshit faggot movies” for further reference.

I can tell you the woke answer: ANY character could be gay or black or of any gender and that doesn't mean they look or behave or talk a certain way.

However, that's not how you create characters. The elements you chose are supposed to INFORM the character. And therefore their journey.

Sure, you could have a character the audience assumes are male but then at the very end of the book it turns out they are a girl. There is a children's book where exactly this happens.

Also, in schools they will have books where the illustrations show a man cooking and the fire fighter being a woman. One couple just happens to be two men. Again, this is how you write for children.

I've mentioned before that I think Patrick could be a children's sci-fi author. In Pat's mind, it's a planet-shattering concept that a marine could be gay. That is the kind of thing that might also impress a young mind of 10 or 11 years old. No normal adult would find it interesting, however.

Woke millennials have been brainwashed into a state of arrested development. They LIKE living in a world of children. Marvel movies, colourful computer games and nothing too challenging about race or gender, please!

So, to answer the question that you never asked me, it IS patronizing to the audience in that the author is treating them like a child and expecting them to be interested in an approach that could only be of interest to a childish mind.
