      Between this year's The Last of Us 2 & Cyberpunk 2077, I would like cis people who are nominally accepting to critically interrogate the presumed correlation they have inherited between trans visibility and the violent collapse of civilization. It is centuries-old propaganda.

      I'm not sure this is totally fair to TLoU2, where the point kind of is that the queer and trans people were very unfortunate to happen to be born in a post-apocalyptic world run by religious cults that consider them abominations

      The Cyberpunk 2077 shit where the trans model in the advert symbolizes the overall decadence and hedonism of a hypercapitalist society absolutely is this trope, I agree The post-apocalyptic old-fashioned fake-medieval landscape of TLoU 2 is almost making the exact opposite point

      Lev isn't elevated to hypervisibility by exploitative pinkwashed capitalism He's born into a repressive fundamentalist society that doesn't even have a word for what he is and struggled to develop his identity in that context even so

      I think if you ask queer people where they want their experiences to be rendered, very few will answer "post-apocalypse." It's worth understanding why, and who such renderings are then for.

      That's fair I mean my take on this is colored by the fact that @BootlegGirl is the biggest fan of TLoU 2 on the planet

          I'm not getting into this except to encourage other queer people not to speak for all queer people because I'm getting pretty tired of being told I'm a freak in my own community Frankly I'd be as scared of some of the cliques on here in a post-apocalypse as of transphobes

          I liked The Last of Us 2, to be clear. (And I think Cyberpunk is pretty good.) I also think there's social conditioning to the trans concept which makes its experience more at-home to a cis majority in apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic scenarios.

          Depends on the apocalypse, imo. I felt like Lev's presence pushes back against the popular idea that in a scarcity scenario, all that frivolous transgender nonsense would go away because there's no time or resources for it.
