New Star Wars show on Disney+ 'Tales of the Empire' features a non-binary character that uses they/them pronouns.

Parents, make sure you know what your kids are watching!

They're after your kids.

I'd be fine with a they/them for a a freaky looking alien. But yeah, that's just some mystery brown looking queer, which is the most generic thing Disney does these days for character design.

The 2006 show Legion of Superheroes actually did that, for an alien cyborg that was heavily implied to have two consciousnesses in one body (complete with constantly shifting between two different voice actors). I don't recall anybody having an issue with that choice - but it helped that 2006 is before a lot of this nonsense took off in the first place, and nobody would interpret a character being referred to as 'they' as anything other than sci-fi weirdness.

Yeah. The thing is that you didn't yet have the social context where becoming a dual-consciousness cyborg is reinforced with love-bombing propaganda & multi-billion dollar medical establishment

Exactly - I sometimes think that our stories had more freedom to be weird when there was a clearer divide between fantasy and reality.

Yeah I've noticed how lazy the Disney Star Wars character designs have been. Mandalorian started out alright with the blue alien dude being his first target, but as the show progressed it got lazier and lazier. Every new character was just another generic human with zero alien makeup minus a few exceptions.
