But Cheery isn't non-binary. She's a dwarf, but dwarfs don't differentiate between male or female dwarfs, and since she's a city slicker she wants to curl her beard and wear lipstick and have high-heel boots and shit. It's an amusing distinction because it's seen as normal to us humans but the dwarfs think it's shocking. And it sounds like they're setting in more toward the early end of things, and Vimes wasn't the captain of the watch then. There was the night watch and the day watch. And Sybil isn't exactly trying to fix the city's wrongs with chaotic vigilantism. She's just a good person, which is why she and Vimes mesh so well, since Vimes is strongly moral too. I got a bad feeling.

I seriously hope this is just the Metro’s token shitty click bait writing, because if they want to ruin the best book in the series they can fuck right off.
I’m not even touching on the rest.

>I seriously hope this is just the Metro’s token shitty click bait writing
That sums up the whole thing. I'd absolutely love to have a minseries portraying a rough overview of the Watch, but that sounds really fucking ominous.

could play that dwarf lady that wants to be feminine. probably in another book though i can't remember

Why was Pratchett's own left-leaning writing so much less insufferable than modern SJW writing? Was it the sheer fact Pratchett approached these subjects without blaming white men for every ill?

So they shoe horned in two niggers. Of course they did

Pratchett grasped that
1) not everyone who disagreed with him was evil
2) people who agree with him could be assholes
It’s why you got things like Prince Cadram and Lord Rust being a showcase of why just because your boss is racist doesn’t mean he a foreign person can’t be a conniving bastard.
Or the conservative guy in the fifth elephant who was a red herring villain, only to be revealed as incredibly principled and honourable by Dwarf standards, as evidenced by the fact he could have gained the throne by lying but didn’t even consider the idea.
Or general frock being offended at the idea of promoting someone simply because they were also female instead of earning it

From what I remember it wasn't really left leaning, There was no extreamism, He had his characters act like character instead of being his voice pieces etc. Women were written well and he liked equality.

Won't be the same without Christopher Lee as DEATH

>BBC drama
Into the trash it goes, they can’t make good shows. Everything they create is propaganda

>BBC
>Carrot is black
>Vimes is black
>gender swapping
>more race swapping
>Only Nobby Nobs is white

>Marama Carlett is the mysterious Corporal Angua who looks over Carrot’s training

U wot mate. Angua joined the watch way later than Carrot did in the book.

subtlety
what a lot of people nowaday lack

Err, what? Did you watch, I dunno. Taboo or The Bodyguard? The one where cunt and nigger is thrown around constantly, or the other one where the bad guy is a muslim woman who wanted to go full Saladin and she gets punished whilst the white folk don't? Fuck sake man.

this is carrot, you blind cretin

What's Peaky Blinders propaganda?

So it's a loose adaptation using characters from the books, Kind of like what Gotham did to Batman?

Yeah, pretty much. As expected from BBC...
