netflix doing a long thread about the wachowskis and trans readings of the matrix just a couple of years after cancelling a series by the wachowskis that had one of the few trans protagonists on television really sums up how brands approach activism lol
yes they did, and then you cancelled their Emmy nominated show after two seasons. brands will always care more about profits than diversity https://twitter.com/NetflixFilm/status/1291444631163400193?s=19
guarantee that the amount studios like netflix talk about lgbt+ and particularly trans representation is massively disproportionate to the amount of trans creators they actually work with. much keener on clapping themselves on the back than producing content from trans people.
everyone replying saying that the show was bad so it was fair to cancel it: a)subjective b) how many terrible shows does netflix make 20 seasons of, and how many of those are written or produced by trans people? did they cancel it and use the money to fund other lgbt creators? no
