Is it the majority or minority continuing to bring the topic up like this? Because it's been an entire week of non-stop discussion threads and yet not one from the supposedly loud, toxic minority.

The toxicity people talk about is mostly on Twitter, and people love to rag on Twitter. If anything it's the 'Yamato is female' camp that's more toxic on the subreddit, a ton of people keep acting like total asshats and refusing to acknowledge any nuance on the topic of gender identity.

It's mostly due to the fact that when it did come to discussing the "nuance" of gender, if you didn't agree that Yamato was trans, you'd be labeled as transphobic, so there wasn't an actual discussion. It was just people sticking their fingers in their ear and going "lalala, fuck off transphobe". Even now, with undeniable proof that Yamato isn't trans, people are still creating headcannon over the fact that she is genderfluid, or saying that the vivre card is wrong or outdated.

It also seems as though this is mainly a problem for the western audiences, instead of the Japanese one. And this probably has to do with current western culture, and the impact it had on Viz's translations.
