G.I. Joe Classified Series: The Chatty Pointless Thread & Performance Art

Nah, I’m good with them changing He-man’s logo, too.

Yeah, I'm 100% behind them adding more women but I don't really want rehashed ideas of existing characters. They've created some gorgeous new figures for Classified and I think they have more bangers in them if they have the time and space to do it. I do think you're flagging good themes to add women characters to though - I'd love to see them create an original Native female character who doesn't take a spot away from existing Native representation, and especially if they make her not a cultural stereotype - think more Airborne than Spirit. We NEED an arctic Joe specialist who's female too since that particular area is a boy's club.

It would be absolutely hysterical if they gender-swapped the guy in the shirt that sounds like a Joe Rogan saying though, that would be hilarious.

I used my darker skinned Marine Sniper female head as a headcannon Native girl related to Spirit. She doesn't look stereotypical at all for a Native, and that's why I think it works so well.

I'm not.
I'm also, however, not good with allowing shitty people to co-opt everything and anything they want.

Regardless, the point remains that Salvo's shirt gets a lot more attention than He-Man's symbol. Weirdly.

I know everyone likes to get themselves real bent out of shape over Salvo's shirt. But He-Man has a Nazi war medal on his chest. So.... it's helpful to be more fluid in our interpretations of things, I think.

On Eternia it means hope.
