Disclaimer: I thought of this while using this command line. I actually think Celeste and Matrix are good and trans rights are human rights.
Image description: [ First pannel; character turning his back on the Trans flag, Madeline from Celeste and the Matrix movie title screen : “I am not Trans”. Second pannel; character hugging a box labeled ‘gender’: “I enjoy the gender I was assigned at birth.” Third pannel; character typing on a laptop with the Arch Linux logo while wearing programming socks. A bubble shows the line on the screen : ‘makepkg -cis’. The character says: “When I compile an AUR package, I clean install files, install the program, sync dependencies; in a single line.” ]
How is the Matrix pro-trans? Looks it up
TIL it is now the Wachowski sisters who made the Matrix films.
Also in the 90s estrogen pills that were used by trans people were red.
Also the animatrix had a scene where a robot is being murdered as she asserts that she’s a woman.
The Matrix is a full on trans allegory. I can recommend Tilly Bridgers “Begin Transmission” book if you want to know more.
There was also supposed to be a character who was a different gender in the matrix vs out, but it didn’t make it to the final movie
Iirc it was going to be the “not like this” girl
Her name: Switch
The what? (Not sure if you‘re joking, good for them if true)
Is true.
I just googled it. Crazy I didnt hear about this. Glad they went for it.
I know, I don’t follow entertainment news that closely or anything, but you’d think I would have heard about it sometime in the last 14 years.
Cue my conspiracy prone mind: Why would anyone not want us to know that great artists and personalities were trans, hmmmm? Wont have anything to do with pushing traditional family values, right? RIGHT?
