please don't fall for tumblr's revisionist history. they banned the tags of queer identities before because they were "pornographic", they deleted posts and banned users overnight due to the nsfw ban, including posts that weren't even porn. then recently they ran an ad campaign+

bragging that they are the "most queer social media site". now they "unbanned nudity" to recruit new users by LOOKING like they allow nsfw now even though they don't. and they have big problems with hate speech/bigotry (especially terfs) much like twt does. dont fall for it.

This is a real language that they've decided to completely ignore the rules of for the convenience of English speakers. Even the Japanese version of his name is consistent with the true Gaelic pronunciation.
This is an objectively horrible decision.

There's some QRTs and replies that give specific examples of how Tumblr is both queerphobic/pro-TERF and is unequipped to handle distinguishing artistic nudity from porn in the present day. I encourage everyone to take a few minutes to read them!

I'm glad things have improved! I still think it's tone deaf at best to run an ad campaign about being the "queerest social media site" given the site's history, and it's incredibly difficult to trust their new policy allowing nudity will be implemeted well.

Gaelic is an endangered language and it is a real shame they've made the decision to disrepect it like this. Remake *should* have been the opportunity for them to pronounce and spell the term correctly. It's not like they've been afraid to change the names of protags before.

I'm officially losing it.
The first image is Seph calling Cloud a puppy, which makes me think he called Zack that which is why the phrase is in Cloud's head.
The other dialogue is Sephiroth telling Cloud he did well. Those wide eyes, Cloud is so surprised to be praised 🥺

You want "mainstream queer content" but only queer people can consume it? That's not possible. The more non-queer people you scare away from queer content the less of an audience queer media has. Queer creators will make less money, and say goodbye to mainstream queer charas.

*Reading QRTs* I think everyone needs to play the original game immediately because Cloud is not "horrified" or "disgusted" by Sephiroth during the time period he admired him and joined the military to be like him lol.
Find someone who looks at you the way cloud looks at sephiroth during a combo

If people were telling others they can't read gay content 5-10 years ago we'd call that homophobia. It still is homophobia, regardless of whether these kids realize it.

the tweet says "anger towards sex and queer people" and the qrts say "why do you think kids having sexual boundaries is bad" that is two different things and conflating the two is blatant puritanism. having boundaries does not entitle you to spew hate and anger towards others
i really hate that i have fallen into the generational trap of fearing the younger generation. but the amount of conservativeness, puritanism and just straight up unfocused anger towards sex and queer people outside their world view i see in gen z is extremely disturbing.

That's not what you said. You said "fujoshis are fetishizers" which is distorting the meaning of a word from a different culture than yours. If you simply said "don't fetishize my experience" no one would be saying those things.

Great news for Rufus enjoyers--in an interview with Inverse Nomura said that Rufus Shinra will have "some sort of new episodes that do not exist in the original, where we will get to know more about him and dig deeper.”

The CN and JP versions of the comic has no negative comments. Why should an artist take the effort to translate their work into English when harassment is what they get for it? You're driving artists away. Artists who make "pure" content will stop translating too, trust me.

Sephiroth has, at the very least, deeply cared about Cloud canonically ever since On the Way to a Smile came out so Sephiroth loving Cloud is not actually news nor does it contradict anything. The Sephiroth that loves Cloud in Remake is clearly from AC era so it checks out.

Yup, and that's part of why TERFs love Tumblr. They can get away with bullshit like that because they know there's young queer people on there who don't know their history and can easily be tricked into agreeing with TERF rhetoric, like "queer is a slur".

Are you speaking about the original game? No one is faulting people for pronouncing the name wrong as kids. People said "Tifa" and "Yuffie" wrong too.
In Rebirth there is voice acting so the name will be said aloud. They very easily could have used the correct pronunciation.

Harassing real life people, no matter how "tame" it is, is against Ao3's rules. Name-calling, while childish, is still bullying.
Proship is an anti-harassment, anti-censorship stance. Banning harassment doesn't go against proship principles whatsoever.

SE has been deliberately pandering to SC fans in both the Compilation and spinoffs (KH, Dissidia, etc) for over 20 years now. This is not a rogue intern. If you think promoting Sefikura is evil then FF7 is not for you, and you should stick to your morals and stop giving SE money.

You're speaking about 20+ year old history.
"Cis het women" is a western stereotype. The stereotype in Japan is that fujoshi are lesbians. Why? Because queer women want to read and write stories about queer people without being outed in a country that is very conservative+

They're doubling down on Jenova's discovery being 30 years before FF7, so Sephiroth can't be older than 28 in FF7, maybe 29 depending on when Genesis was born.
I was right they want him younger now, in FF7 it seemed like he was 30 based on Vincent's age but now... +

I think the thing that people miss when they make posts like this is that many people ship characters BECAUSE they are invested in the wider story. Shipping is a vessel for people to create and consume art and fiction that explores the story of the game more in-depth than canon.+

The whole fujoshi "debate" exists because in the 2000s people saw some non-Japanese women who stole a Japanese word acting creepy towards gay men and instead of telling the creeps to knock it off, decided to demonize the word fujoshi, Japanese women, and the entire BL genre.+

"SOLDIER honor" isn't some Shinra-developed honor code, it's how Angeal coped with the fact that he had to do bad things. Zack using the phrase doesn't mean he agrees with Shinra it means that he's trying to maintain some sense of honor in a system that is far from honorable+

From what I've seen some of how Sephiroth is treating Cloud is more how you'd look at/praise someone inexperienced, not someone of the same rank as you
imo that's C's brain putting S on a pedestal and wanting that affirmation from his hero rather than how S actually treated Z.

when you phrase it like this you're saying that "adults with jobs" shouldn't care about the fact that people are literally being harassed into committing suicide. that it's beneath you to care about people dying and that people who care are just "chronically online"
"im not proship or antiship, Im an adult w/ a job🤪"
proshippers are literally just ppl trying to mind their business/enjoy fandom. The only reason proship exists is bc its a simple way to say "I can find ur interests weird/gross, im just not going to violently harass u over it"

Too late? Tons of English speakers have been pronouncing it the right way and have been informing others about it for years. The Japanese version has always pronounced it correctly.
It's not the "fan way". The fact that it needed to be addressed means fans do not say it one way.

Sephiroth has no memory of himself after FF7. For this reason, he needs Cloud's memory of him to come back to life in AC.
This parallels with Cloud agreeing to help Tifa because she was the only proof he lived.
As we know, Nojima loves CT, and he loves his parallels. (1/2)

*ガーリックトースト You put both ー in the wrong spot.
And you're incorrect because toosuto is the word for toast in Japanese. So you'd translate it to toast, not toasto. Since toast ends in a consonant, making the o in toast long is most natural for English, hence toooooast.
