“At this point, they are mocking us.” It certainly comes across that way. It’s impossible to credit that whoever is writing these tweets believes this stuff.

“At this point, they are mocking us.”
It certainly comes across that way. It’s impossible to credit that whoever is writing these tweets believes this stuff.
For example:
“For years, fans of THE MATRIX have discussed the film through a trans lens.”
No, they haven’t.
- Pfhreak 6y agoI don't know how you can say that fans haven't discussed this movie through a trans lens. Like, a very cursory googling of articles over the past two decades indicates that yes, in fact, many fans have discussed the film through the trans lens.

- chx 6y agoA lot (all I can find) of the early tweets are about an Indonesian TV called Trans TV. This https://twitter.com/Safarazzz/status/208335499281182720 https://twitter.com/Safarazzz/status/208335499281182720 is (one of?) the first on topic tweet from 2012. After that it's a flood: https://twitter.com/patienceinbee/status/225368805285691393 https://twitter.com/patienceinbee/status/225368805285691393 https://twitter.com/noellejoyeuse/status/228993592864165888 https://twitter.com/noellejoyeuse/status/228993592864165888 and these were before Lana came out as trans. And then https://twitter.com/ontologicalgeek/status/257477202730438656 https://twitter.com/ontologicalgeek/status/25747720273043865... https://twitter.com/linernotesdanny/status/257642532740161537 https://twitter.com/linernotesdanny/status/25764253274016153... and so forth and so forth. So yeah, people have noted this for at least eight years, probably on other forums even longer.
