The character Switch (Belinda McClory) was supposed to be trans -- *a man in the real world who generates as a woman inside the Matrix* -- but producer Joel Silver vetoed the idea because he thought the audience wouldn't understand. I think Joel just didn't want that shit ruining his profit potential and, for the sake of all our enjoyment, I'm glad he did.

The switch thing is basically just another "hey dude what if this wacky thing happened". No different than a guy playing a female avatar in a video game and vice versa. The Wachowski brothers were always degenerate so I wouldn't put it past them to try and slip something in. But the idea that the whole film is about trannies is absurd.

There are many examples of these kind of "over the line" inclusions being removed. Gene Roddenberry wanted to put homosexuals in the original Star Trek, and things like the Twilight Zone also had a bunch of subversive elements pulled before it got to filming. Just goes to show that even "traditional" media has been pozzed for a long time.

I never said that, nor would any other sane person. I said that one character, Switch, was written as trans in the original script -- which is available online in PDF format. It's also confirmed in the commentary tracks or supplements.

Leonard Nimoy confirmed that he and other jewish writers bascailly hijacked "Star Trek" from Roddenberry by inserting jewish myths and fables into the stories. The Vulcan salute -- this emoji 🖖 -- is actually a hand gesture rabbi's make to signify light/ lightning over the congregation. There's a book, "Jewish Themes in Star Trek" by rabbi Yonassan Gershom. Pedowood has always been a platform for them to broadcast their subversions.
