The order "You will own nothing, and you will be happy about it." doesn't just mean physical objects. You cannot own membership to a fandom, either. It will be torn down, destroyed before your very eyes, and made into a horrific flesh-puppet, a cadaverous marionette, dancing about to taunt the very idea you could own some small part of a fandom, even in your own mind.
It's true we need to bring gatekeeping back and chase the woke fandoms away. But there in lies the trouble: How do you gatekeep against the woke, when the possible gatekeeping plans will be anticipated and repelled by an all-seeing, all thinking threat?
Simple. You don't bother with them. THAT's the best way to stop this stupid culture war.
Strong lesbian Lara Croft struggles with her pent up feelings for her non-binary penis-owning sidekick while traveling the world searching for Christian artifacts to give to famous collector Mohammed Al-Jazeera for preservation purposes. All the while being chased by an angry right wing group that definitely looks exactly like Nazis.
Lemme guess: Lara passes on the mantle of Tomb Raider to a strong trans-woman of color who fights to decolonize private collections and returns artifacts to the proud people they were so savagely stolen from.
Hit me up Netflix. I can churn out retarded nonsense like that all day!
I think S3 really suffered because the feminist writers thought that having girl vampires complain about things to each other was somehow interesting in its own right, but Castlevania did okay with the “strong female character” imo. I’d give this a shot assuming I still have Netflix once it comes out.

You forget where she is a pagan witch who fights the patriarchy.

You made one tiny little mistake... Lara is not passing the mantle of tomb raider, she is the transgender from the get go.
Netflix doesn't allow for things like that. It has to be extra woke from the beginning.
MAXIMUM WOOOOOKE!

To be fair, Lara returning ancient artifacts to the tombs to appease the spirits would be perfectly viable.
If you still have a Netflix subscription at this late date you're complicit in this nonsense and officially part of the problem.
Stop it.
If you have to see something they have exclusive rights to rock an eye-patch and saying "Avast!!" a lot.
Lara will be a fat black transwoman fighting against patriarchy and ocasionally talking about archeology.
To borrow a title from a shitty late 90s series: Womb Raider.

Imagine expecting something with a female lead to be good.
