No I said

I wasn't wrong and I won't be just because you repeat it a lot. You made the claim that I misused the term based on you not even knowing what I referred to as gaslighting since you said they "never said he had started the conversation", despite that being literally what I quoted them doing.
Once again you are confusing or conflating starting the topic with the conversation about the audience size and attendance, which seems to be on purpose at this point to muddy the waters. Also, nothing you have referred to or what Sheen posted is gaslighting. This is deflection.

Stop being disingenuous and posting in bad faith.

You don't need me to post sources because I never disagreed with the definition you provided. I have explained exactly what I referred to as gaslighting:

Starting to insult someone and spinning it as them been the ones to start it for replying to it and insult them further because of it.

There was nothing wrong about how the term was being applied, and there won't be by you reposting the definition which I never contradicted many times.

Oh I know you keep pointing out that people use it as trendy buzzword. What I don't know is in which way you think that supports your claim that I used it incorrectly.
You have utterly failed to prove you understand the definition and what it means to engage in a pattern of behavior to cause someone to doubt their own perception of reality, nor have you demonstrated in any capacity whatsoever how that has occurred in this topic.

This is you flailing in the wind because you dont want to admit you were wrong, and dont know how to use the term gaslighting or how to recognize when it applies or not. Furthermore, you are content to continue misusing this term and watering down the meaning for no good reason whatsoever, at the expense of other people no less.

"KitKat", what you're highlighting says the term is "more often" used for patterns of behavior. So? What about that means that

is not them "manipulating someone into questioning their perception of reality"?

You have posted precisely zero sources to back up anything youve said so far and continue to retort with nothing more than, nuh uh!

I refer back to the first portion where it states people are using it as a trendy buzzword rather than the intended meaning, which you are a textbook prime example of doing here.

Anyone who thinks that what we saw in Episode 3 is 100% the truth of how everything went down needs to chill.

This was Osha's perspective. It's what she knows and what she saw about the incident.

The idea that the coven would just be collapsed and all dead like seems laughable for a reason: it's not how everything went down. The Jedi are hiding information from us.
Yeah I think its clear Mae couldnt have done all that, also the Jedi saw the Witches as a threat and dont want other outside groups using the force who can challenge their power.

Also the coven said they would take Oshas wish into consideration when they made their decision; I think they tried to stop the Jedi from taking Osha and the Jedi killed them when they were attacked

The first two episodes were really good, makes me wish the Obi-Wan tv show were more like this.

But this new episode was kinda bad, I have to be honest. It was pretty weak and and I found myself laughing several times at the ridiculous moments.

One thing they didnt explain is who massacred the coven. Its implied Mae did that when she set the fire but its also like heuheu, ackshually the twist is the Jedi killed them heuheuhah

The fire Mae started was dumb, like she broke a lamp and then the stone temple just ignited like it was made out of styrofoam. I guess she used her Harry Potter magic to make it worse?

Everything about the witches was just so contrived and ridiculous though. The characterization was terrible.

I get they needed to show some backstory but I was expecting more when the flashback episode came around. I also wanted to see more of Master Indara. What a waste of a great character and actress.

Because I live within TX and have voted blue since 2012.

While true nobody should claim to 100% know the future, a mistake I probably made myself here, currently as is, the idea that a fascist takeover, or maybe even the promise of such, is what turns TX into an alliance with CA is one of the least believable things I've heard of.

The average central/East Texan I've met spends an exorbitant amount of time hating on CXA for merely existing.

The average TX voter that I've met would absolutely side with a Republican fascist over a non-fascist if they were somehow associated with a blue state. Shit, I had someone I knew far more progressive than me become a legit Trumper because they couldn't get over Clinton's "if you or I did what she did we'd be in jail". Dude even legit defended the Klinton Killer Konspiracy.
Thats understandable and I can see where youre coming from. Sorry for your loss about that friend who turned into a Trumper, that sucks. I had a friend who was progressive on politics but is deeply transphobic.

And once again, TX as a state would never do that. 100% they'd side with him, even if there was anti-TX pockets of violent from non-fascist supporters within the state. Unless the state's government itself was overthrown, TX is siding with the fascist and CA is not.
Im not sure why you would said that given the context of the film is set 10 years in the future from the current political climate and Texas has been steadily trending blue for many years already. Demographics are changing and projected to keep changing in the future towards purple/blue. Who is to say it wont flip in the coming elections, or that the same people in office today havent been voted out in 10 years time?

Its believable and even probable to happen based on the current political sphere. The Texas depicted in the film is not the Texas of today, nor is it supposed to be.

How about this, then. Can you elaborate? Especially on the super racist part. Im not seeing or understanding your point of view or how its even remotely racist.
There is no point because Latinx/e is not racist. That is yet another case in point demonstrating transphobia about gender neutral terms (and race baiting.)

Most Latin Americans arent even aware the term exists (66% have never heard of it) and of the 33% who were previously aware of its existence, 33% of that minority believe it is a suitable term. So thats leaves only about 23% of Latin Americans who are aware of the term and do not think it is suitable.

The figure about only 3% usage does not demonstrate that 97% of Latin Americans are opposed to the term, that is primarily because the term only gets used in the context of academia and political activism, depending on the geographical area. So most people simply dont know about the word or use it, or stay active in politics, or use different language in different areas of the world. People need to get their facts straight.

Pointing out transphobia coming from the reactionaries doesnt mean they are bad people, it highlights how societal transphobia is still a problem and ignorance contributes to a lack of LGBT+ education and acceptance in our schools and our communities. The reactionaries dont want any gender neutral term, period. They want to uphold the gender binary and reinforce cishet normativity in schools and the community.

Latinx is still a word that is used in my area, for example, again primarily in the context of political activism. This is not a word everyday people are using to refer to each other on an individual basis and nobody is trying to tell other people how to identify. People who refer to the Latinx community are not opposed to the usage of Latin, Latine, Latino, or Latina.

Its very obviously got political themes that mirror the current political climate and shows how MAGA is not only bad but can become much worse (but is shown from the perspective of journalists)

Yeah, to me it seems like they were too scared to actually try something with this movie. Like they were intentionally trying to make this not political, dancing around something that's reflective of current tensions. Why even bother at that point.
Civil War was incredibly political from start to finish. Thats like the main theme of the entire film, warning about the dangers of fascism and civil war from a fascist dictator MAGA type President who violated the constitution and ordered the military to bomb civilians, and violated Presidential term limits refusing to step down just like what happened on Jan 6 when Trump refused to step down. He was against peaceful transfer of power to Biden.

I think it was purposely done so that going into the movie, people couldn't pick a team and turn it into some sort of rallying call.

The why and how of the war wasn't really the point of the movie so by leaving it somewhat vague it keeps the focus on the main themes.
This film was very explicit in its stance of painting the President as a generic MAGA figurehead fascist. Journalists were considered enemy combatants and shot on sight

This wasn't a MAGA universe though.

It makes sense that two of the largest states would unite against a monarchy. They also didn't just consist of 2 states, iirc it was basically all the west coast states then southern blue states through to Texas, then Oklahoma and north and west to Idaho that stayed with the President, then there was the Florida contingent that was doing its own thing.

Basically there were 3 fractured sections of the US. Texas and California were the heads of the resistance along with Colorado, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico among others. Not sure what the Florida faction was even doing honestly.
yeah it was (or could be interpreted to be) a maga universe, it was also set about 10 years in the future after Texas had turned blue and was not supporting the President. They also mention an Antifa massacre

I don't speak Spanish, which makes it difficult for me to find the discussions on this specifically. I am part of the trans community, it's people who specifically prefer gender neutral identifiers and natively speak Spanish who I've had trouble finding many views from.
I idd as nonbinary for a number of years but never preferred/used gender neutral identifiers.

What youll hear and I suspect you may already be familiar with is gender neutral is fine unless or until someone tells you otherwise, and dont use it to single out trans people or GNC folks. Typically people use gendered language though, as do I unless asked otherwise for an individual who doesnt want gendered language. Most trans people and nonbinary people are supportive of using inclusive language in any case.

I know the terms aren't specifically for nonbinary people, but neither are the English terms like they/them. If nonbinary native Spanish speakers actually did prefer sticking with one of the binary terms I wouldn't argue against them, but the discourse on this topic that I've seen never includes them, which is why I'd really like to hear their perspective.
I would recommend you talk directly with the trans community specifically if you want more from our perspectives. This place doesnt foster that kind of environment or people so much.

Nonbinary Latines are the ones who have the most connection to this, and the people railing against gender neutral terms for Latina/Latino usually ignore their existence completely. I've asked this before and no one had it, does anyone have a link to a nonbinary Hispanic person's stance on this? I genuinely want to know what they think, letting cis people decide if a gender-neutral term is needed and phrasing it as an ethnicity issue to silence trans people is clearly a transphobic tactic.
Latinx/e isnt meant to specifically refer to nonbinary people, fyi. Its a gender neutral term. The term(s) (and similarly Latine) are tied to the trans community with efforts to challenge the gender binary and be inclusive of gender nonconformity and trans people in general. Spanish language specifically is structured around a gender binary, which doesnt allow for or otherwise recognize greater gender diversity. It is also not like a pronoun where someone else tried to make that comparison earlier (pronouns dont equal gender.)

Edit : Nonbinary people are incredibly diverse and are not necessarily agender or genderless, or gender neutral btw. Its not black and white like that where some people are bigender, different flavors of gender fluid, or very masculine or feminine as they relate to their gender identity and expression (such as trans masculine or trans feminine.) Non-binary people do not always use they/them pronouns either, for example. Its not a monolith and one nonbinary person can be very, very different from another. Some may prefer Latino or Latina, too while being nonbinary.
