Imagine you write a story. And some faggot activists come along and say. ."What you say about your own story is wrong, im going to rewrite your own story for you".
The problem with Yamato is that in one of the last chapters of the Wano arc, when they're celebrating the victory, they go to an onsen that has a clear separation between the male and female areas, and Yamato chooses to go in the male side "because that's what she is". It's good to see that Oda clearly stated in other medium that she's a woman, but why the hell did he draw that bath scene with that justification, then?
It's entirely his fault that there's a debate about this character at all.
In his defense, I doubt Oda is up to date with the Western gender insanity of Current Year+8 and just thought it'd be a funny/in-character thing to do.
Leftists like to pretend there's sny kind of cultural or historical connection between Japanese gender bending cartoons and American child abusers to legitimize their beliefs.
The anime tourists went as far as to call for arson against the Gundam staff. No wonder why there has been a big hullabaloo about Misskey and that Japanese artists are going there.
And the thing is? A lot of the time that is true. Barbie is a currently famous example of "what you meant" being so incongruent with "what we got from it" that it basically has buried the original intent.
The issue being, when you try to wield your reading as a weapon to either change the work or present your view as the only possible reading. Something most people who consume product heavily of any kind are guilty of.
It would be nice if Death of the Author actually waited for the author to meet death, though. Oftentimes people are arguing directly at the author, proclaiming their work means something completely different to the author themselves.
"What I get out of this story as is relates to my life" is a very different statement than "This is what the author meant in this story", too. Objectively, in example, the Barbie movie is feminist dross. But subjectively, many audiences found the struggle of Ken to be important or symbolic in some way while to the author he had no value beyond being fanservice. Both these things can exist side by side. "The author meant to do this thing, but the portrayal, to me, showcases instead this other thing".

The audacity of these people.
No need to imagine, they're very insistent about doing it to One Piece too. And not just activists but the official dubs themselves, too.

Why is 2015 the date used for Current Year?
Raging Golden Eagle always uses a sliding timescale for the term. 2020, for instance, would be Current Year Minus 3 as of this writing.
Because Yamato is that dedicated to the Kozuki Oden LARP.
Because that's what oden would do. It's that simple
Translators who vandalize scripts to push WEF leftism are the lowest kind of scumbags.

that woman in that tik tok video sure has a big nose
They...know what happened to Kyoto Animation, right?
Almost 40 people died?
That would require them actually having any level of care for the medium and its history, even recent history.
Nah they're ignorant tools that only rage bait.
Death of the Author has been one of the worst creations of modern philosophy and art, and it is over a century old.
A friend of mine once relayed an anecdote about a story he'd written involving a guy getting magically turned into a girl, anatomy and all.
Magically. That's the operative word. Not hormones or surgery or whatever. Magic.
And then a tranny in his chat group got all hissy, saying it made him "not valid."
Went on and on and on about death-of-the-author.
"It doesn't matter what you meant. Only what the readers think matters."
