      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                  Some of the comments in the YouTube feed are a bit depressing.

                    I think some of the current societal trends are quite depressing.

                      Here's one:

                      "I was the guy treated like dogshit by everyone including women for liking anime and thinking Japan was cool, well needless to say I’m 26 and will be retiring by the time I’m 31 from smart investing and focusing on my career as opposed to fucking around like most people my age."

                      😂

                          Another one:

                          "Mulan is an excellent example of the continued predictive programming of creating masculine women. They’ve been psychologically hypnotizing in programming society for so long people think what we are experiencing as actual reality when it is in fact a script"

                          It's hard to imagine why this guy never gets laid.

                            That's not all that was said about Mulan. The major point made about Mulan, was that it was highly successful because the female lead character went through a classic developmental journey, as most male characters do. Unlike the character Rey in the Star Wars movies, who somehow was born with every skillset imaginable.

                            His point is that the generations of writers who wrote Mulan and the last Star Wars trilogy were raised with a different societal view.

                                    As pop culture goes, I wouldn't say Mulan (from the Disney franchise) is "successful," certainly a lot less success than other "Disney princesses."

                                    Is the author not aware that Mulan is based on a classical character drawn from Chinese theatrical traditions going back over one and a half millennia, while the Star Wars stuff is practically a modern invention with maybe only half a century of history?

                                      Mulan made $304,320,254.

                                      I'd call that successful.

                                      Did you hear what the author said about how the scripts were written?

                                        His point is that the generations of writers who wrote Mulan and the last Star Wars trilogy were raised with a different societal view.

                                        Is the author not aware that Mulan is based on a classical character drawn from Chinese theatrical traditions going back over one and a half millennia, while the Star Wars stuff is practically a modern invention with maybe only half a century of history?

                                        It's cringey when you pretend a voice of authority over shit you know nothing about. Star Wars is about the oldest story the West has to offer.

                                          Because the opening crawl says "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...." ?

                                          In any case, the earliest known written record of Mulan's story (about Mulan disguising herself as a man to serve in the military in her father's place) goes back to ~400 A.D. I thought George Lucas invented "Star Wars" in the 1970's. Is that not the case?
