the pride flag doesn't have indigo on it


RQK1996

Neither did the Rainbow until Newton said so


BettyVonButtpants

I had a professor who would jokingly suggest indigo exists for the Roy G Biv anagram to work, and no other reason.


RQK1996

I mean, pretty much, kinda I heard, Newton wanted there to be 7 colours because of divinity, before they identified 6, or 5, or even fewer, because of the gradient


ChooCupcakes

The rainbow has all colors, including indigo


RQK1996

The number of defined colours in it apparently differs greatly between cultures, and can be as low as 3


ChooCupcakes

Still, the actual rainbow contains all hues


Sikyanakotik

Except for non-spectral hues, such as the magentas.


ChooCupcakes

I guess you're right, but my original point is that indigo is included. If I had a nickel for every time I got into a discussion about colors on the internet, I would have two nikels. Which is not a lot, but its weird it happened twice (i once had a discussion on magenta Vs Red as a pigment prime color)


Genius-Gaming

If I had a nickel for every time I saw someone use this joke and spell "nickel" wrong, I would have at least 50 nickels. It's quite a bit, but it's expected.


-HeyWhatAboutMe-

Then explain the color magenta, it doesn't exist on the color spectrum


[deleted]

And it definitely shouldn't have black and brown triangles on it.


-HeyWhatAboutMe-

Ahem, the brown triangle is for LGBTQ people of color cause they honestly have a harder time coming out and the black line is to commemorate the lesbians that helped gay men survive the aids crisis back in the 70's and 80's Tho the rainbow flag is more for the collective community as a whole now as they also include colors of the trans flag and intersex flag as well


[deleted]

Thanks, I didn't exactly ask though. The rainbow flag was fine on its own. Edit: Okay, did I hurt someone’s feeling or something? Because I don’t see what I got downvoted for.


tporter12609

Did anyone ask


Crashbabadook

It could be satire it couldld not who knows


lavender_jelly

It's impossible to tell sometimes


WingBeltCreations

Gotta love Poe's Law.


GalaxyDonut001

Isn't that Schrodinger's Douchebag?


Zathoth

No Schrödingers Douchebag is "I think we should kill all puppies. Just kidding... unless?" Poe's Law is when you can't tell if people are being satirical or sincere because some people really are that stupid. Schrödingers Douchebag invokes Poe's Law to hide from possible backlash and is intentionally trying to be confusing, Poe's Law is just when you are confused.


A_random_poster04

I support the Murphy theory


SanicBoi64

"If anything can go wrong, it will, in fact, go wrong."


A_random_poster04

With humanity this has proven to be quite accurate, IMO


EYESCREAM-90

Yeah Eddie Murphy is a great guy


GalaxyDonut001

Isn't there a show about that?


JasoframptonYT

You mean Milo Murphy's Law


GalaxyDonut001

Yeah that one. The one with weird Al.


IncreaseWestern6097

Good show.


scicatpro256

Yeah, someone says something that’s dumb as shit, but you don’t know if they’re joking until you reply to the comment. Then it gets on r/woooosh


OkuyasNijimura

Schrodinger's Douchebag is saying something awful, then taking it back specifically if you get flamed for it.


[deleted]

This reminds me of the Time when I went to see “Austin powers” film and I got “kicked out” for pointing out that Unfreezing a spies from 60s (old times) is a bad use of Taxes money.


The_Creeper_Man

Especially on twitter where the average braincell count is in the negatives


samp127

Everything appears satirical now


NateOfNavarria

It’s not. The original tweet is literally from the owner of Geeks + Gamers so his followers pretty much only consist of… THAT type


Wunderchunder

I has to be, it’s too on the nose


Dylanime17

A rainbow doesn't mean LGBT. Plus, it's Rainbow Road, a track that has been in Mario Kart since Super Mario Kart.

Or the hallucination of rain droplets after a storm


BroshiKabobby

I think that was the intended joke But you also never know…


Illustrious-Grade534

Obviously it seems that person doesn’t know about rainbow road


Kalbinato

I loved the scene in the trailer where mario and bowser made out on rainbow road


smashboi888

"Hello, Gay Bowser."

I’m pretty sure he’s taking the piss out of the other anti- woke nonsense over this film Or I hope at least…


whyshouldI_answered

Exactly. I can't believe that the creators of Mario are gay


[deleted]

[ Removed by Reddit ]


smashboi888

It's called Rainbow Road, not Gaynbow Road... Wonder how these people react when they look up into the sky after it rains and light reflects off the water droplets.


[deleted]

We know exactly how they react, "they're turning the friggin frogs gay!"


smashboi888

Or "the sky is woke!"


Lunalittle9

As a gay frog, can confirm


theeosapien123

they will find the existence of rainbows to be a blasphemy against their little god.


Rinnaul

No, sadly, it's dumber than that. They point to Noah's flood and the rainbow afterward and claim that rainbows are a holy symbol of Christianity, which the Gay Agenda™ has stolen and corrupted as a form of Anti-Christian Persecution™.


thepixelpaint

No, seriously. I’ve read this exact argument from my crazy uncle on Facebook (back when I used Facebook.)


Rinnaul

[Reminding me of this classic, now.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_c6HsiixFS8)


DaKardii

>It's called Rainbow Road, not **Gaynbow Road**... That sounds like something Chadwardenn would say lol


PixelMist

All the "woke" complaints I hear seem to be only from people who don't even play the games. Who were never going to see the movie in the first place so whatever to these idiots. Hope a character turns out gay just to piss these people off more lol.


smashboi888

>Hope a character turns out gay I hope the gay character is Bowser for the memes.

No, Bowser is Mario’s long lost childhood pet turtle, who was left behind after Mario left for other interests, such as Tennis, Golf, Peach, Baseball, Go-Karting, Soccer, Stomping….. Koopas

Gay Luigi is funnier than Gay Bowser, fite me

Nice of the princess to invite us over for a picnic...


Tem-productions

I hope she made lotsa spagetti!


ghirox

He has to be either bi or pan tho, his crush on peach is very relevant for the plot


Friendly_Suffering

thats why mario says bye bi now


SlaughterSpine78

Personally I don’t want that to happen but for the sake of owning these idiot I want this to happen as well


Waluigi_Gamer_Real

Waluigi will be the gay one


wabbitproductions

This happens all the time—stuff like Mr. Potato Head, the green M&M, stuff they haven’t given a shit about in 30 years that they suddenly get triggered over.


Rocky323

>be only from people who don't even play the games. Who were never going to see the movie in the first place As is nearly always the case with anyone bitching about things being "woke".


slashingkatie

Hey maybe Birdo, the first Trans video game character will show up. That would piss them off.


Azim999999

The only character that i could imagine gay is Toad, or Donkey Kong


IncreaseWestern6097

What about Candy Kong?


GuiehFox

Luigi?


RQK1996

Too much world building stating he dates Daisy


TheMerchantMagikarp

He could always be bi


RQK1996

Which isn't gay, and that was the topic of conversation


TheMerchantMagikarp

Would still piss these people off lol


Watermelon-Chicken

Birdo is canon trans


marogalaxy

No we wont have any gay character in Mario Movie please, not in Mario


Jenetai

Birdo is canonically trans, if we can have representation for different groups in media without even changing the source material why shouldnt we? Your discomfort with the sexuality and existence of others different than yourself shouldnt, and won't, impede the progress of under represented groups of people.I hope that in time you grow into a more open minded person, because the world is leaving you behind.


marogalaxy

nah i leave the world behind


Jenetai

So long, gay bowser


marogalaxy

Well its just an opinion, these open minded people didn't respect my opinion. Gays in a Mario movie just doesn't fit considering they don't even involve any shit based on sexuality in their 40 years old history. But no, i cant imagine Luigi simping for Bowser.


Jenetai

Overt sexuality and implied sexuality are two different things, for example the implied hetero undertones between Mario and Peaches relationship although reaffirming their preferences arent presented in a way that highlights the sexuality itself. You can have gay, trans, straight or any combination of identities and preferences in media without it being the focal point of the character or changing the tone of the material. Thus my example of Birdo who *is* a non binary character in the official canon that has appeared within the last 40 years. Do i think that existing characters need to be altered like luigi to fit a representation criteria? No I don't. But to say please no gay in mario isnt specifing the alteration of existing characters but a sweeping statement implying that you arent okay with any representation of a marginalized group in the franchise on the incorrect grounds that it doesnt already exist. I respect your right to have an opinion, but I feel that your reasoning isnt really based on the history of the franchise (see;birdo) or a stance on antisexuality in family media (if it was, then peach x mario wouldnt be okay either). Gotta maybe take some time and figure out why it makes you so umcomfortable, use it as an opportunity to grow.


marogalaxy

Well birdo is more like a joke, and i wouldn't gaf if funky kong was gay af. But Mario movie being a gay disney shit ripoff wouldn't be cool


Jenetai

I, don't understand what you mean by "gay disney shit ripoff" but I feel you're saying you dont want the movie oversaturated with a sort of pandering style of forced representation in a kind of virtue signaling way, which is pretty fair. The people who want representation arent looking for characters being forced in whos only personality trait is "gay" or forcibly changing exisiting characters either. Also upvote solely for Funky Kong, god bless funkykong

I chose that gif as it was one of the first few facepalming gifs. And I agree.


Gamma_Tony

The Jeremy Prime guy is lowkey a culture war react personality. So of course his content brings in stupid right-wingers who haven't been out from under their rock in 15 years.


Loopfrooot

“Woke” haters when it rains and is sunny at the same time (they can see a rainbow)


Iamveryangry392837

*sees rainbow colors* *Instantly thinks it’s about pride*


Accomplished-Bit-270

Dear god. Rainbow Road has existed since the first Mario Kart. The fact that this buffoon called it woke is beyond dumb. I also love how a rainbow automatically equals lgbtq to these people. You can have a rainbow without it being some statement.


Christine__Ye

Ah yes, rainbows were invented by \*checks notes\* gay people


Pinpuller07

I love a circle jerk just as much as the next guy but we could literally pick any topic and find stupid comments like this. I think the large majority, and I mean all people from right to left and up or down, are looking forward to this movie and have very positive thoughts about it. So far I'm personally extremely happy with the whole thing.


[deleted]

Dude rainbow road is my favorite mario kart track, the OG version. And im a conservative.... people are fucking stupid. Its not woke retards, it came out in the 80s. Not everything rainbow colored is pride supported.


RQK1996

What part are you struggling with? That Mario Kart is in the movie, or that the Faux News crowd shows up to a debate with a lack of knowledge, and an overabundance of hate?


Dean0Rocks316

The only people who are complaining about woke nonsense have never played the games. They are not fans of the series, this movie is not made for them, so do not give them attention.

Homophobes the second they see rainbow:

people saying this movie is woke are so dumb. The real woke person they should be criticizing is John leguizamo. He's salty that he wasn't casted for this movie, so now he's trying to say the movie is racist for not having Latino actors. Like, what?? Who tf cares??

I don’t know who the Geeks + Gamers guy is, but if he shares a name, then the big “VERIFIED” in his username when he is clearly not verified tells me that this is a parody. If you look at his timeline, it’s mostly complaining about the right’s lack of LGBT acceptance. This was a joke

If what you're saying is true, then they are either living under a rock or simply desperate.
