I can't think where to start. This is an abomination, and anyone who has read Pratchett and watches this is in for a shock.
I'd be interested to hear the late Sir Terry's view on this, since there is genuine diversity in his books, and some of the later novels had some subtle commentary on a range of topics. The people who made this abortion wouldn't grasp subtlety if it was beaten into them by a large orangutan.
I could rant for a long time about this, as I'm seething with hatred, but it's not worth it. Just add it to the list of wokified adaptations to avoid.
Not only did he do a sterling job of writing diversity and tackling racism (speci-ism?) better than any of the current SJWish have even bothered trying, he wrote more fleshed-out and well-rounded female characters than pretty much the entire left movement put together.
Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg, Magrat, Tiffany, Susan, Angua, and Lady Sybil — all proof that you can write great female characters without making them a cardboard cutout for yelling "Men bad, womxn good, the future is female!", or making their characters men with boobs intentionally ugly androgynous features (since male gaze is bad, and anything that pisses off their fragile egos is good).
