    Okay so off-topic, dumb question: In the second gif in the post, what is that small circular thing that they ‘walk’?

      That’s Bridget, a character from the fighting game series Guilty Gear. She fights with a yo-yo. She’s unusual in an anime styled video game because she’s outright transgender, which made a lot of gamer nerds mad.

          Idk there’s still a lot of thirst for Bridget but now it’s done by trans people and liberal chasers rather than just fascist chasers and 4chan pick me femboys

            I can only assume the old chanlords just do hostile pronoun choices in the comments to stick it to the wokes (like… the fucking people that made the character to begin with). frothingfash

              Yeah on rule34 they’ll tag art of her as “femboy” still and then just claim “well Bridget is femboy in THIS ART… no reason why I made that artistic choice at all :)”

              Uh… dont ask how I know that.

                I bet the comments are full of deliberately hostile pronouns to try to “take back” the character and revert Bridget to a form they are more comfortable with… because Bridget being comfortable scares them. bridget-pride-stay-mad
