OK, explain to me how it does then. |
you admire chun li because chun li possesses certain characteristics that are unique to her as a character
beyond that chun li with regards to her ethos is a character that is high up in hierarchies related to fighting, attractiveness etc etc etc
isn't it ironic then that you are advocating for a system that has the goal of reducing the unique qualities people have in order to bring about equality?
you might not see it that way, but if you think about it for a bit it should become apparent to you
if anything chun li and all characters like her are about inequality, they are "people" that are better than the average person and so they give people a mark to aim for
characters like chun li are popular because they inspire people to become greater then they are, they inspire people to try to climb hierarchies and develop themselves into something greater
the ideas i've seen you and the others push run counter to that
its essentially that since people becoming better and climbing hierarchies creates inequality, that we should therefore throw the whole idea out and just have everyone sit at square one
and its not just a bad idea but it runs counter to how people actually are innately
