You forgot her being black and a woman. To make her a "special snowflake".

Freak got gamergate-pavloved into being racist at the sight of a black woman character.

Black people: exist

Assholes: WHAT, DO YOU THINK YOU'RE SPECIAL?

Reminding people that Mary Sue is a sexist term that sexist assholes use to deter people from writing strong female characters

Male power fantasy character exists: so-true

Female or NGC power fantasy character exists: frothingfash

I once saw someone refer to some of the gods in Pathfinder as Mary Sue's

And it's like, instant psychic damage from the unseriousness

it's weird how it shifted to that from "obvious self insert". I guess people think any character who isn't like them is automatically a self insert blob-no-thoughts

Repeated misuse of a term by insufferable idiots sadly distorts the vernacular

I have nothing to add except. Nuclear Throne is a good game but it felt hard to me back when I played it ages ago.

Good news, it's still hard as fuck

Oooh, they're mad because it's a female character with melanin. Of course that's what it was.

motherfucker looked at a cast with YV in it and said "actually someone else is the mary sue"

[-] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Okay but she is the worst character in terms of gameplay. All of her upsides are actually negatives and she's the hardest character to unlock. Her b-skin is also hell to unlock. There is no reason to play her at all. She's a boring and mid character at best and a direct downgrade at worst.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
