Like I said, people who happen to know the language can understand it and so should have the same chance to understand with subtitles. If the director’s intention was nobody understand it, they shouldn’t have them speak in a language people may be able to understand

2·5 hours agoI think I’d be happier with the sequel trilogy if Rian Johnson had been in charge of all 3
I noticed this in Meet The Robinsons. A guy says “Madames and monsuiers” and the subtitle says “speaking french” as if the average English speaker doesn’t know what those words mean
This is unfair to bilingual deaf people.
For example, there’s an episode of Bluey with a lot of French. I’m really bad at French but I do know a little of it. I am able to understand some of the dialogue.
Why should a deaf person not have the same right as me to interpret dialogue in a language they happen to understand or understand bits of?

1·11 hours agoWhy does the majority not simply seize wealth from the minority and redistribute it? Why can’t society just collectively decide money from billionaires had no value? It’s so frustrating seeing the majority allow a minority of rich people ruin everything when money is a social construct, meaningless if we all collectively decide it is

1·11 hours agoPeople keep thinking I’m saying don’t bother voting when I say the midterms aren’t going to save them. I guess my brain is wired differently than theirs. I don’t think a hopeless situation means don’t bother doing anything. I think yeah duh, you gotta try what you can

2·11 hours agoAs one of the people living in one of the neoghbouring countries to the Untied States, I’m fucking terrified of annexation. I almost want them to start invading NATO countries just to see if anything will be done to stop them. I’m terrified Trump’s apparent immunity to all consequences will extend internationally and the world will just fucking let him take whatever he wants

3·11 hours agoI don’t know anything about vehicles but you just reminded me of something I’ve recently been thinking about: instead of measuring a movie’s success by money made and having to adjust for inflation, why don’t we just measure by number of tickets sold?

101·11 hours agoI think it’s actually a major problem in society that people are afraid to understand the opposing viewpoint. They’re afraid of being seen as agreeing with it or defending it. It actually helps make a constructive argument if you understand the opposing argument. You need to understand the opposition’s reasoning to help them understand your reasoning.

1·15 hours agoI took a folklore class once where we visited a graveyard and had to write about graveyards as if explaining it to a culture that has no idea what they are. One of my classmates took the opportunity to express how stupid he thought graveyards were.

It is putting them at a disadvantage. I can hear characters speaking french and pick up at least some of what they’re saying. A deaf person who knows some French should have the same opportunity as me to see the French words and interpret some of what is being said. I’m not saying have the subtitles in English, I’m saying have them in the language being spoken on screen so they’re getting the experience intended
