Transformers' First Non-Binary Character Sparks Backlash

Here we go again. Optimus Prime apologizes for using wrong pronouns:

Children's TV show Transformers: EarthSpark has sparked controversy by introducing a new non-binary character.
The animation series features a robot called Nightshade who says the word "he or she just doesn't fit who I am" and asks other characters to use "they/them" instead. The machine adds that the term "non-binary" is a "wonderful word for a wonderful experience."
quote:
A viral clip of the show, which was shared online late last week with the caption, "They're after your kids," has now been shared more than 10,000 times. It shows a scene between a robot called Nightshade and a character called Sam. "My pronouns are they/them,' the robot says to a cowering human character who then relaxes, smiles, and replies: 'Thanks. I'm she/they[...] I'm sorry for how I reacted. It's just sometimes the world can be a scary place. It's hard to know who's dangerous or not." The robot says: "Hmm. That's true, though disappointing." Nightshade looks sad, and the human tries to comfort the robot by saying: "Hey, it's ok. I know I'm safe when I'm with my friends or other non-binary people."
quote:
A different clip, thought to be from an earlier episode, shows another human character telling a robot called Optimus Prime, "Nightshade's pronouns are they/them." And Nightshade jumps in to add: "He or she just doesn't fit who I am." The other robot says, "My apologies," apparently for almost misgendering the machine, and then refers to Nightshade as "they."

How can any of you deny that Hollywood wants to turn kids into trannies?
Why is this garbage in a cartoon for little kids?
Sick bastards.

This is why Super Mario Bros is kicking arse because it’s just a normal animated movie for families to enjoy without woke garbage.

How does anyone defend something like this, especially coming from a damn robot/transformer? This isn’t about people bitching about some perceived BS, it’s not play pretend anymore, not when a damn robot is spouting off crap like that to 10 year old kids.

That show looks like it’s for kids younger than 10. I wonder at what point do all the “I couldn’t care less” about this kind of stuff people actually see what they’re trying to do. Pretty fricked up.

Why is so much of this tranny rights nonsense aimed at small children? Few are fighting to keep adults from their fetish or life crisis, but it’s access to little kids that the line has been drawn at, which is sick. And if you defend this constant drive to shove little children into that world, you’re the one with a problem.

Man I really liked Transformers growing up. And I was excited for the new Beast Wars movie. But now I'm not gonna watch that shite.
Just another piece of my childhood tossed into the dumpster fire of woke hollywood.

Yeah it makes way more sense for robots to be they/them than he or she.

It’s because they want to rape the kids. Isn’t that obvious?
Hollywood has been known to be full of pedos for years, they’re just advancing the next step in their plan.

It looks like we have at least one pedo on this board, as evidenced by the downvote you got on that post.
To the sick frick on here who likes abusing children, kill yourself.
