i can’t understand ppl who hate rats. “their tails are creepy!! there’s no fur on them!!!” ??? you don’t have fur on most of your creepy ass body either. “THEY HAVE LITTLE PEOPLE HANDS” YOU HAVE LITTLE PEOPLE HANDS TOO, stop hating. you’re weak. look at their sweet faces. they just want to love u.
Lauren Montgomery said in an interview once that the episode where Allura died in 80s Voltron traumatized her when she watched it as a child because she was a strong female character she could look up to, and then rebooted the show, made a Black Princess for little girls to look up to, and then up and killed her off, fully knowing it would be traumatizing to them. that’s not just carelessness on the writers’ part. that is downright purposefully violent and sadistic.
