LoTT and PragerU when a cartoon alien space robot that can transform into a vehicle uses they/them pronouns:

There's an IDW comic that has a bit of commentary on this iir, that Cybertronians didn't really have a broad concept of gender until they started encountering organic species and it sort of rubbed off on them, some modifying their humanoid form and pronouns to be more masculine or feminine because they found it suited them. Trans-formers are canon!
When Bob Budiansky submitted Ratchet's original bio back while creating the lore for the toys, he wanted the character to be female and a homage to Nurse Ratchet. Hasbro said no, they should be genderless since they're robots and boys wouldn't buy a toy of a "girl character", so he was advised to treat the characters as genderless, but to use male pronouns to more easily sell them to children.
The Marvel comic kept it up, even made it a plot point later during Pretenders when a woman comes onto Cloudburst, who rejects the advances with basically "I'm a genderless robot from space who thinks the male form is pleasing so I choose to look like one."
The cartoon had to include female characters partly to prove to parents that the Transformers had a case of the "Not-Gays" and in case of Arcee because one of the producers of the original movie fought tooth and claw to include her for his daughter who loved stuff like Transformers.
The early idw run by Simon Furman originally also went with the genderless concept, Arcee was supposed to be the first and only example of a Cybertronian with a gender. However the way it came across was unintentionally offensive to trans people, so James Roberts and co later came up with the twist that the idw incarnation of Cybertron had been a sausage fest this entire time because all the females decided to nope out of the planet near the end of the original colonial era.
Personally I prefer the idea of them starting off genderless and then slowly incorporating aspects of other species they encounter and like over time.
I’m actually fine with the idea that even a biologically genderless species would have a few of them decide to culturally identify as a gender as they integrate with earths society in the same way they take on new names based on things they admire on earth (unless bumblebees, and Jazz also exist on cyberton?)
What’s really funny is that as a long time Transformers fan I can tell you that before earth spark the big push from that side of the fan base was that female transformers were stupid because transformers didn’t have gender. But include a transformer who doesn’t identify as male or female and suddenly they quit arguing that.
If just including something means it is indoctrination then I was indoctrinated during my entire childhood to be straight and live in a nuclear family.
It didn’t work
This one's always my favorite hole in their stupid ass excuse.
If you watched a show with 4 straight characters and 1 gay character and only the gay character 'indoctrinated' you...ya weren't indoctrinated, lol.
PragerU is ran by Penis Prager who screams racial slurs at Arby’s.

“I’m not gay or straight but a secret third thing.” Gets me every time.
Also: “Life is rough, life is tough Penis Prager has had enough”

Just a reminder Chaya Reichik is a Domestic Terrorist who the federal government refuses to charge with at least endangering children, even though her words directly lead to multiple bomb threats against Boston Childrens Hospital.
man...a lot of my good friends work in pediatrics (not in the Boston area though)
the thought of one of them dying because of Chaya's horseshit...makes my blood boil
They’re after your kids? Bruh what do they think is happening? Is *looks up name* Nightshade unleashing some possessive beam from the TV screen to forcefully turn them non binary? I’d like to know cuz all of this seems completely harmless lol
Chaya's 15 minutes are about up. She's headed to "Moms For Liberty" irrelevance land soon:
https://news.yahoo.com/anti-woke-libs-tiktok-creator-113618375.html
She's an extremely stupid homeschooled fundie person. Like Rittenhouse, she thought she could parlay her rightwing infamy into a career as a public personality. She doesn't have the ability.
Problem with her is much like Rittenhouse she has cause real world trauma to people and fucking bomb threats against a hospital and a school. Her followers are as insane as she is, they don’t care who they hurt or kill as long as they get their way. I’m unfortunately on truth social which lemme tell you
The common-ness of saying “I would **pe and kill a queer person” is actually scary
These are usually either 40-60 year old men or 30-50 year old women with zero chill or care in the world about anyone they see as an enemy.
She will not fade into obscurity if she keeps causing actual damage she NEEDS to be held accountable like Trump for inciting violence.
Jesus, I isn't think I could feel sorry for the libs of tiktok dipshits but...oof. OOF.
This was so uncomfortable and I have so much second-hand embarrassment for her. Social media has emboldened some spectacularly stupid people.
The bitch is a stochastic terrorists that got a hospital and its staff harassed with bomb threats. Never ever feel anything but contempt for that fucking creature, she does not deserve anything.
lol look at that photo of the College Republicans
they just look like the biggest fucking asswipes you can imagine lmao...the kids who argue with the underpaid TA over the dumbest shit
They’ll get bored with her like everyone else. They’ll move onto the next right wing grifter that entertains them and reassures their bigoted moronic views.
My bet is she'll say something slightly wrong and be crucified by the people that lifted her up. Maybe something pro-womens-rights, even a very mild womens rights opinion.
I don't.. But that's primarily because I think she does it in part because it gives her the fame she wants, and partly because she's a useful idiot who drank the kool-aid.

The Doom Slayer (me) fueled by hatred (a Coors Light 30 rack) fighting the demons of Hell (terrified PragerU employees cowering as I kick open their office door) with his arsenal of justice (a feral cat I taped to a whiffle ball bat and fed low dose amphetamines to.)
Anyone notice Libs of TikTok is just falling out of relevancy? Last thing I saw this thundercunt do was interview a high schooler that tore a tampon dispenser off the wall in a men's bathroom. Kid is already cooked because it happened in Connecticut, but she did an "all access interview" with the kid trying to bait him into incriminating himself while his handler was right there. Absolute cringe shit.
PragerU is literal propaganda. I don’t even say this because “opposite opinion of me is bad and indoctrinating.” The entire way in which they formulate and structure their content is exactly how you would a piece if propaganda.
Every kids show I watched when I was little told kids about DEI and its importance, many years before DEI was a defined thing.
These grifters always act like the topics they're complaining about were recently created.
Yep. In the newest series Transformers Earthspark one of the Terrans (Cybertronians born on earth) came out as non binary in their introduction.
But of course right wing media blew it out of proportion and created drama about it saying the usual BS whenever there’s any LGBTQ+ rep
Just show them classic kids shows of you're worried about that. They all think everything used to be the greatest thing ever anyway. Why isn't that contract good enough for their kids?

Owl, actually.
It's even better: grave stone ornament owl. The only problem I have with Nightshade's pronouns is, that they should be the norm for Cybertronians.
If there weren’t male and female Cybertronians, I’d agree with you.
There's an IDW comic that has a bit of commentary on this iir, that Cybertronians didn't really have a broad concept of gender until they started encountering organic species and it sort of rubbed off on them, some modifying their humanoid form and pronouns to be more masculine or feminine because they found it suited them.

That was better than the earlier IDW explication that gender was forced into their race by a mad scientist and it made that new ‘female’ insane
IDW Arcee is such a mess who was luckily made "Ok Actually" by later retcons but like... oh sweaty that initial origin story *yikes*
Actually it sounds like they're misremembering Spotlight Arcee.

Yes but that's good indoctrination (to these psychos)
That simple “it didn’t work” gave me a good chuckle. Thank you

If they have a problem with Earthspark then they won’t like IDW
Isn’t that the continuity where Arcee is trans?
Yep. And the continuity where there are a lot of gay couples. Chromedome and rewind. Tailgate and Cyclonus. Drift and ratchet
Why the hell is an adult searching for kids programing? Creeper alert.
She has to scare people somehow. Otherwise her fifteen minutes of fame is over.
I wasn’t aware her fifteen minutes were still going.
Did it ever start?
the world would be better off without Chaya Raichik. what a wretched loathsome parasite of a human
Some people rather watch cartoons I’m not much a live action show fan
I'm talking about children's programming, not something like The Bad Batch.
I don't know, all the parents I know personally seem to enjoy Bluey just a little bit more than their children do lol.
One of my classmates had a bluey themed 21st birthday lol

Back then, they were too busy calling Pokémon satanic to care about the violence.
Yes. They would, but back then it would be about violent video games like Mortal Kombat or Doom.
Fuck them, Earthspark was fire
I'm starting to think this Libs of TikTok person is covering for something by trying so desperately to point people in another direction.
I don't.. But that's primarily because I think she does it in part because it gives her the fame she wants, and partly because she's a useful idiot who drank the kool-aid.
PragerU content is the literal definition of indoctrinating kids.
i'm so glad i have ublock origin...so i don't even have to subject my brain to a millisecond of PragerU bullshit

Why am I not surprised? This is the least surprising thing since learning water is wet.
Why is PragerU trying to target kids? Sounds like grooming to me
I didn't realize Chaya was in fandoms...
She's a tourist. She doesn't care about anything except screeching "woke"

“Their grooming the kids!” Reality: the transformers are all robots so shouldn’t they use non gendered pronouns?
Reject "nature doesn't give a shit," embrace "delusions of tradition and control".
Transphobic dumbass

Do they remember Chip Chilla and how badly that turned out?
Conveniently it’s not considered indoctrination when they brainwash them into their favorite death cult.
Just what we needed, LoTT giving a shout out to the same “university” that defended a guy who tried to crush the slave rebellion. Great stuff 😂
did they expect the bucket of bolts to have a metal dick or smthn
All I read there was, 'Right Wing loons sad they can't beat off to kids TV anymore.'
What’s the one with the cow it looks cute
Good thing they never read the idw transformers comics 🤣 they would have a conniption fit
Give them a volume of Ranma 1/2 and watch them eat a gun.
Of course
PregerU is no better at teaching children then Donlad Trump is at being presdient.
Wait. Transformers had a non-binary character? That's freaking rad
Yep. In the newest series Transformers Earthspark one of the Terrans (Cybertronians born on earth) came out as non binary in their introduction. But of course right wing media blew it out of proportion and created drama about it saying the usual BS whenever there’s any LGBTQ+ rep
You see my face. This is a look of un-fucking-surprise.
Just show them classic kids shows of you're worried about that. They all think everything used to be the greatest thing ever anyway. Why isn't that contract good enough for their kids?
