Whenever anyone goes on a tirade about how we’re wasting out time because nobody cares, etc. Remember that when a cartoon candy changed what kind of shoes she wears, it provoked a pant shitting riot that included no less than Tucker Carlson of FOX News.What is particularly hilarious about it in this case is that this is one where literally the only ones who care are socially inept reactionaries who bought into Mars’ absurd grandiosity in their statement about this.The response from women has generally been multi-stage bafflement at this section on the Green M&M’s bio (yes, she has a bio) that’s written like she’s an executive rather than a candy:Being a hypewoman for my friends. I think we all win when we see more women in leading roles, so I’m happy to take on the part of supportive friend when they succeed.Then followed by questioning why Mars thinks they’re the experts on what kind of footwear that women in… non-specific circumstances? They kept the high heels on the Brown M&M, so clearly they don’t think that gendered footwear is the problem… just these particular go-go boots on this character.The Mars trying to reinvent their slapstick cartoon candy as role models for young women, is hilarious as it is clueless but its still enough to provoke rage and panic from reactionary bros.Representation matters. They agree: That’s why they shit their pants at even the most comically faint hint of it.- wincenworks(And FYI, whenever anyone tries to put this ridiculous bullshit on women, feminists, etc, be sure to point out to them that pretty much all the write ups by women were laughing at the absurdity of Mars’ misguided attempts at inclusivity by mildly adjusting how they use gender markers) -- source link
