That's not quite accurate my step mother is from Ecuador and is a legal citizen? She thinks PRs are spoiled. Do you mean PRs are automatically legal citizens and don't have to put out as many efforts?

Ecuador isn't a US territory

Maybe it should be.

They're just legally natural born citizens because they were born as 14th Amendment citizens, under the jurisdiction of the U.S.

Well, the jannies are being unusually lenient with the gender sperg, so that's getting boring. I also found someone whining about one of the pages setting off their OCD, but the mods have already suspended that one

Why is tv tropes such a magnet for creepy weirdoes? I don’t want to be mean, but, to be blunt, almost everyone seems to have some kind of mental illness or mental disorder.

Again I am not trying to be a jerk, or throw insults to troll. It’s just a fact. Almost all users, and moderators, outright admit or brag about having OCD, autism or something as a badge of honor.

Altough, It does explain why tv tropes is such a joyless wokefest. You might think this is a fun wiki about pop culture, but they are actually running an insane asylum.

But it does make it impossible for average people that just want to have fun to stick around for long. Unless you only do superficial work like grammar edits I guess.

It's unironically because of autism. Autism makes what might seem like harmless fun to some people to be deadly serious to others.

Because autism, OCD, and sometimes ADHD gives people the drive to repeatedly perform mundane tasks with minimal rewards, both on the web and IRL. Normally, it works out after ironing out an few issues amongst them; but every now and then, an turboautist shows up and ruins everything

I always go to TVtropes after I've finished a show/novel/game/etc. I notice common tropes when consuming a new piece of media.

But they really go a bit far with categorising, I mean, many tropes they list aren't really tropes but just normal things from everyday life.

Using your mental illness as a personality is next level pathetic.

That's just the internet in general these days. People are so very quick to answer the question no one asked and confirmed that yes they are in fact autistic or something similar. Most of them seem to be under the impression it's a personality trait to brag about.

TVT used to be autistic but fun. Now most of the people claiming to be autists are really just munchies.

 

[Not a Tomato]

Remember how some DOS games had a key that would hide the game you were playing and display something else instead? TVT has a page for that.

Seems fairly normal, right? This is what could be read on it some time ago:

“Preventing kids from getting groomed online on tranny sites is considered transphobia!” These people are sick, but we all already knew that.

As a bonus, here’s the troper page of the guy who added that junk.

Spoiler: I... What am I even reading???

The gender sperg is going out in an blaze of glory

 

[scathefire]

What you're reading is a diatribe of distilled autism from someone who was never bullied as child, or grew a new sense of humor since he was one.

The troons have officially come for Jojo (rate me late)

Trans Audience Interpretation: That Dragona went as far as to get breast implants has led some coming to the conclusion that he’s actually a trans girl, and Jodio (who refers to him as "big brother") just doesn't realize it. Others interpret Dragona as genderfluid or nonbinary, the latter of which have long been part of Hawaiian culture.

Viewer Gender Confusion: When Dragona's design was first revealed, almost every viewer assumed he was female due to his highly feminine appearance, which includes the presence of surgically-enhanced breasts. Even the fan translators are not sure whether to regard him as an extremely feminine man, a transgender woman, or nonbinary.

I still read JoJo from time to time, but even then, it’s a rather disappointing thing to think they can tarnish Araki’s work as if it is their own personal fetish to sexualize fictional teen-aged children.

• Values Dissonance: One of the first pieces of trivia we learn about Dragona Joestar is that he only ever eats watermelon for breakfast. In America, this can raise a lot of eyebrows, particularly since Dragona is Ambiguously Brown and it's implied by the racist Hawaiian cop that he might have African heritage specifically, when eating watermelon is infamously considered a racist stereotype of African Americans. However, in Japan, watermelon is considered a luxury item — for Dragona to be eating it as often as he does is meant to be an indication of his demanding standards and his ability to afford to live above his means because of the money he and his brother earn from their criminal enterprises.

Okay, gotta give away my power level here: That is not a fucking thing whatsoever for black folks. Literally no one cares if a character eats a lot of watermelon and if you think that's Araki being racist, it's because you subscribe to the idea that jiggaboos love their watamelon and fried chickens.

Guaran-fucking-tee this was written by a white guy. For fucks sake.

This pisses me off because you know what I associated watermelon and fried chicken with for most of my years growing up? THE SOUTH. Given that both were popular staples of family get togethers of whites AND blacks - heck I've seen people who have made actual, no joke, no SJW racist statements about blacks enjoy watermelon and fried chicken and nobody batted an eye about it being a "black thing."

I've said it before but I've said that Trannies and the psychotic end of the LGB crowd will always attempt to claim a character as their own and insert themselves upon it. Then start to make all sorts of fan art and cringe when they see that resonate with them. essentially kidnapping the character and ruining it's rep. Even if some non-binary or trans-character tends to be well loved in general you can expect those people ruin everything about them because they just have to find the next non-cis character to spoil.

Straight up parasitic behavior.
