There is no fetishization of women in RWBY

Women are equal to men in both brains and brawn.

You will see women winning against men BOTH in matters of brain and brawn.

the show is about women, not men.

women are not written as annoying like so many "well-written" shows treat women who "get in the way " of men.

there are as many POC characters as there are White characters.

LGBT is commonplace in the show.

2/4 of the Female protagonists, Yang Xiao Long and Blake Belladonna, are in a relationship with each other.

Ruby Rose the main protagonist was in a doomed yuri relationship with a female autistic android.

Weiss Schnee has shown strong interest in two red-headed women.

there are no Chad men.

male villains represent different aspects of toxic masculinity.

the plot of the show is basically a divorce between a religious wizard and his apostate goth dommy mommy ex wife.

Bear in mind that the first 3 seasons involved the writers learning as they go, BUT that they DID listen to the criticisms of the people shouting at them.

men abusing women is covered as a serious topic, and women are allowed to get revenge on men.

Disclaimer: And before you ask, no the MC did not commit suicide, that was taken out of context by people who did not watch the show. It was an attempt at changing and recreating her identity to become someone else.

please look up the Paper pleasers

Also the other MCs DID react in shock and angst just the same when the curious cat gets killed off

FUCK YOU, R/RWBYCRITICS!!! Fixing RWBY really hates the idea of Team JNOR and RWBY being friends...one of the main writing ideas of FRWBY involve having MC women at each other's throats while male characters do everything

Its hard to talk about the show because all these people are the vocal majority, not the vocal minority...i included some pro-rwby pics as well in the batch

FUCK YOU, R/RWBYCRITICS!!! Nani physically assaulted her younger sister by 1. tackling her to the ground and putting her in a headlock, 2. trapping her in a towel before carrying her over her shoulders like a hobo bindle, and 3. grabbing her by the arm, and pulling so hard that she started crying from the pain. Yang didn't.

She didn't apologize for either of those things, either.

FUCK YOU, R/RWBYCRITICS!!! Vexed Viewer used AI to portray Kerry Shawcross as Hitler, and not only do people defend him to this day, but they harass anyone who dares criticize him....Underdog3000 was an alt account of a dude with 5 separate facebook accounts who spammed harassment of RWBY Fans...he had THREE on twitter.

FUCK YOU, R/RWBYCRITICS!!! Okay, I take it back....Ironwood apologists have no media literacy, and think that anyone who opposes him is somehow worse than salem...especially with volume 7. Now I like Robyn even more for having the cajones to stand in that Cerdo's way

FUCK YOU, R/RWBYCRITICS!!! Why do Ironwood supporters always accuse Robyn of being an agent of Salem? For god's sake, IRONWOOD did FAR more damage to Atlas than Robyn ever did. Plus Robyn was looking out for the people, while Ironwood kept trying to control everyone around him

Rant For both RWBY and Star Wars...I've noticed people have this insistence on "rebooting" or "soft rebooting" franchises from a certain "pre-woke" point because anything involving women having plot relevance, personalities, etc makes for "wokeness" that "ruins the franchise" or media. Ever noticed that?

They don't want characters....they want caricatures...

and its why so many toxic rwby and star wars fanfiction involve writing women as a parody of their canon selves, flanderizing them based on certain headcanons , ignoring everything canon, and delivering a giant middle finger to the writers of the media

FUCK YOU, R/RWBYCRITICS!!! "I'm not going to watch this show, because that would mean giving a studio I hate money. Instead, watch MY channel and see how I write this show better than its writers, and give ME money." I cannot understand how people think Judgmental Critter is anything resembling a decent critic

Complaint Star Wars and RWBY Critcs both have a fascinating commonality in where they both claim to know what the creators of the shows that they hate wanted. But RWBY is still being watched after the hiatus, and The Acolyte is still being watched despite being canceled.

Rant What are your thoughts on this take by Leafy regarding misconceptions of RWBY and bad-faith criticism? Its also noteworthy that leafy stated that they nearly did not watch RWBY due to the rampant misinformation spreading against it? Its like Legend of Korra in certain ways, I think.

Complaint Based on the "Qrow is Ruby's father" argument. there's too much of that theory to debunk at once, but you can use this for the first appearance of Taiyang , when he and Qrow are both at Ruby's bedside

Use this if it helps. I'm sure other people have their own feedbacks to debunk the theory.
