You know for such a "progressive" show, the writers seem pretty hell bent on pushing an abusive relationship.
>>
>>88188270
I don't get why people see this show is progressive, people read into this way too much.
>>
>>88188270
>You know for such a "progressive" show
I don't....I don't understand? Okay maybe one of the gems is made up of 2 female lovers, but other than that, it's really tame. You can tell the creator is a huge tumblrite, but that's just the creator and not the show.

Idk shit like this just kinda bugs me.
>>
>>88188280
But if they don't pander to Tumblr hard enough, then no one would actually watch the show, or want a show with continuity, but not pushing progressive shit on us constantly.

Without Tumblr and SJWs, this show goes down.
>>
>>88188280

They're pushing homosexuality onto kids, I'd say that's pretty progressive.
>>
>>88188304
but anon, there's no room for subtlety or shades of grey in reality, everything is black and white.

There are space lesbians in the show so it's a lib cuck sjw tumblr "progressive" show.

Welcome to the new world. Pick a narrative and enjoy your stay. Note: none of the narratives depict reality
>>
>>88188270
I don't think you understand story telling.
Showing something is not the same as condoning it, or even condemning it.
They're highlighting the issues that people face, how many families in this show even have their mother and father still together?
>>
>>88188270
Abusive relationships are progressive. You bigot.

>>88188373
By not condemning it, they are endorsing it. Not to mention normalising it by showing it to impressionable children.

>p-please stop hurting my feelings becky sugar!
>>
>>88188429
I don't think you're right in the sense that the depiction intends to normalize bad relationships, but the road to hell is paved with good intentions - their "problems" are being shown as something to be worked through, but then the focus is shifted away from the couple for entire seasons at a time so it doesn't matter what is happening to them and it will probably never get resolved because "who cares, they're straight"

Also it's left ambiguous whether or not they are official. It seems more like Lars is Sadie's oneitis and he wants to keep it hidden that the feelings are mutual, because he is an insecure narcissist. If anything, THAT is the issue I have with it - Lars isn't someone to be pitited.

Sorry guys, you aren't allowed to call this show Tumblr anymore after Rebecca told Zuke to fuck off and take her shitty lesbian ship with her.
>>
>>88188280
As someone who recently started watching the show I agree. I went in with a friend expecting straight up Tumblr, but it's actually just a sugary-sweet kid's show. Sure, there are gay characters but that's not a huge shocker to me. It's actually pretty enjoyable and I'm a little sad I can't talk to people about it because the fanbase is such fucking cancer.

Or maybe it just goes off the rails in season 3. I just started that.
>>
>>88189104
I fail to see how having drama makes it less progressive.

>>88189139
Again I just have to ask, who in their right mind thinks it's smart to have a 'private' blog where they shit on their boss in this day and age?

>>88188316
If ruby and sapphire split up and never talked to each other, no one ever mentioned rose, and stopped doing these lars and sadie stories (forgetting about the characters being in stories together rather than appearing alone) among a few other things changed, people would drop it in a heartbeat.

You could argue that if he didn't take them out on patrol with him or let them patrol all by themsleves.

I actually think it's an alright show with some (!) decently written characters and story. The thing I hate about it is Steven, his dad and any humans. 'This autistic hamball has emotions just like aliens!' is what every episode boils down to. If it were just about the gems and the lore of the gem war and had more serious tones to it, I would love the show.

Calling it progressive is a bit of a stretch. Steven Universe is just another new-age cartoon that's not too bad, but not as great as the cartoons of old.
>>

>>
>>88189452
A show without Steven, that focuses on the gems and their conflict with homeworld, and has a more serious tone, Humans are only minor characters that rarely get the spotlight.

Yes, that could work. Actually that would be ten times better then the reality of the show.
>>
>>88188726
Modern interpretations do usually make it a point to call him out on it at least once.
>>
>>88188270

Steven Universe isn't really progressive, it just happens to be a show about love. All different kinds of love.

The important part of Pearl's devotion to Rose isn't that its technically gay, its that its unrequited.

The important part of Ruby and Saphire's relationship isn't that its technically gay, but that its strong but almost unhealthily codependent. They have literally lost sight of their individual identities and instead identify as a single unit, which is either romantic or worrying depending on your perspective.

Jasper/Lapis and Lars/Sadie both show different kinds of unhealthy relationships. Sadie can't ever really bury her feelings for Lars despite Lars being totally undeserving of her affection, and and Jasper wanted to cling to the first real emotional attachment she had even though it was a terrible relationship built on mutual abuse. She cared more about how the relationship made her feel than on the wants and needs of the other person involved.

And so on and so forth.

Yes, technically anything involving the gems is kinda gay. But anyone who focuses on that is missing the forest for the trees.

This is like saying superheroes have no genders because you never see Spiderman or Superman's floppy penis.
>>
>>88189649
>but that its strong but almost unhealthily codependent.
The thing is if this is supposed to be a bad thing, there could be some elaboration upon why. So far, them being codependent does nothing but put them at an advantage. There was one episode where they argued with each other and it was over something Pearl did to them and it taught us nothing about why Garnet being a perma fusion is harmful to them or other people.
>>
>>88189683

;_;
>>
>>88189658
Contextually it is portrayed as a perfect relationship compared to every other ship in the show. "Stronger Than You" pretty much beats you over the head with it. They had one mini argument and split up and that was because they couldn't agree on whether they wanted to forgive Pearl for molesting them.
>>
>>88188270
Wait how is it abusive?
Sadie only hurt Lars two times tops. Considering the guy that is pretty restrained.

They're feminine presenting because they like the look and feel of female bodies more than male. Although Amethyst has changed her body to be male before.

Although Pearl and Amethyst have no breasts technically and Pearl especially has no curves. I kind of wish at least one of the gems had a male voice actor to drive the genderless point home but oh well.

One of the characters is a lanklet know it all.
One of the characters is a fat squat troll of ambiguous ethnicity.
One of the characters is the concept of lesbianism personified AND a strong independent black woman who don't need no man.
And the main character is an oversensitive, overweight, and overappreciated.

You could not get more progressive even if they all started scissoring on a giant pizza while talking about their feelings to their cats.

So the writer and character designer of all of these gems thought they should worship the female form as the superior humanoid form. Some feminazi bullshit right there, overlooking the obvious facts that our bodies are not equal. Men are greater than women by nature, if any one of these Menerals would just pick a man's form then they could overpower any of the gems.

Steven is a gem/human hybrid, and an exclusion to traditional gems. Which is the whole point of the show.

Lars is a dick to Sadie a lot I'm not saying he isn't. Although by showing that Sadie is capable of being a dick to Lars, it does give kids a message that you can easily go from being a recipient to someone's bad behavior to dishing it out yourself, and it doesn't make either of you right.

Right, because everyone loves this deep fried lard ball named Steven, because they're filled to the brim with empathy over his obvious mental condition. It's a cheap attempt at getting attention and a lame excuse of a main story.

They do not fulfill the crucial role a female of the species can do, that is - they cannot give birth to and offspring of their species. Therefore they're ain't female.

>>88190385

No one cares about the biology of the gems. The show's emphasis has always been more in the psychological and sociological arenas.

Sociologically and psychologically they're not female either because there is no male/female duality in their society, and their characteristics are a mishmash of both of them. If anything, they're sociologically and psychology grouped into castes.

Newsflash, idiot;

This show wasn't made by, or for, crystal gems. This is a discussion of how the show's sociological implications apply to humans.

Stop dancing around these points like a fruitcake.
>>
>>88190532
Because I'm not some tumblrfag who probably believes in the 1000+ gender identifications.

This show was created by humans.

The gems portray themselves as female humans.

As there are two total gender identifiers, male and female, this can only logically mean one thing.

Gems are female. Your only possible counterpoint is that they are male, but that doesn't work. Genderless is a mental disorder, so don't push that tumblrite shite.

Gems aren't real.

They're an imaginary race of aliens designed to elucidate themes derived from human sociological issues. One of those issues being the application of gender roles.

THAT is "the real thing".

You can assume that Sapphire and Ruby are female but at the end of the day they're just rocks, even the creator has acknowledged this. Meanwhile, The Loud House actually has a gay couple with an adopted black kid. They're also kind of recurring characters. I'm not one to go crazy about the whole diversity shit but it is genuinely impressive that a network like Nick kept that shit.

This. Honestly, there are *no* perfect relationships in the show. Not even Garnet. Even Greg and Rose had problems they had to work through; and Vidalia is on her second husband (or at least lover) after what could not possibly have been a long lasting happy situation with Marty. Also Fuck Marty. And while Yellowtail seems like a perfectly nice gentleman, he's largely absent providing for his family. Connie's parents exist mostly to care about her, so we don't see their romantic side; same with Lars' parents, (though the latter seem to moreso openly care for each other or at least rely on each other to deal with their son.) As far as I know, Sadie's father isn't in the show so we have nothing to go by regarding her mother's romantic relationships.

That leaves the kids: Steven and Connie have been having a better puppy love/first crush relationship to work through... but other than Sadie and Lars are the ONLY teen/kid couple around ever since Ronaldo's girlfriend dumped his poor ass over a misunderstanding.

Lars and Sadie aren't crushing on each other like some story book romance or even a first crush situation like Steven/Connie. Both of them have clear issues expressing themselves as a general thing compared to the other teens (who seem more concerned with just having fun than pursuing romantic interests) and Steven's upbringing has been a huge boon to his relationships, even though Connie's had to repress alot of hers before meeting him.

They don't know how to express themselves very well (Lars especially since he's got his head up his ass trying to be a cool guy) and so they make mistakes. They're flawed. But so is everyone else in the show and that's part of the point; people are flawed. The world isn't beautiful, therefore it is.

I never denied that Garnet has breasts. Pearl and Amethyst are completely flat though.

Friendly reminder that the gems, although minerals, are indeed female.

I know it's apparently hard to grasp.

Sugar is trying to show people her own life is "normal".

>>88188270
How is it abusive? They're both just weird losers whose relationship is low-key mutually destructive because of their combined weird loserness - if that counts as "abusive" to you than maybe it is you who is tumblr

>>88190334
The rubies are Tomboys, they got away with Sapphire and Ruby smooching because the tomboy affect was strong enough to appear straight.

This episode was... uncomfortable to sit through. What was exactly the point of it?
>>
>>88188270
anything other than a normal loving relationship between a man and a woman with no adultery involved is their cup of tea
>>
>>88189218
What happened, exactly? I keep hearing mentions of some shit going down but no actual facts.
>>
>>88188270
"progressive" does not equal happiness and rainbows.

Sugar's previous work has always had copious amounts of drama. It's the fans and the reviewers and contrarian haters who make the show seem brighter than it really.

That was exactly the point. Putting Lars through enough mental strain to get him to open up just a bit.

If their genders and heights were switched around, this would probably be even more uncomfortable.

Congratulations anon, you just single handedly figured out the whole Zuke/Rebecca controversy.

Batman is an ineffective, self righteous coward that doesn't have the guts to stop crime in any meaningful way.

By not killing criminals, he is complacent in every crime they commit after, and every victim they create.

Sadie and Lars are like a bad movie couple. Where they're both kind of assholes but you root for them to get together because they're the only ones who will.

The series is not trying to promote Lars's & Sadie's relationship as ideal. The show wants to showcase real relationships with their human cast, no matter how dysfunctional.

probably, most times I hear about the show is that of ppl moaning about the fanbase

Yes...
>>Forgive your enemies, even when they attempt to genocide your race
A lot of shows share this concept. This ideology isn't exclusive to progressives.

>>Learning math and other logic skills is for nerds. Leaders won't need that
What? How in anyway is that progressive?

>>Take the law into your own hands. Don't ask for Government assistance. It's okay to do illegal shit for the greater good (anarchist vigilantes)

Again not progressive exclusive ideology.

>>Betray your people for feelings. Rebel for a lesser race that you MUST help you privileged gemlord


Now you're just being stupid.


Stop cherry picking and being a jackass.
