#PleaAWorldOfSimpleStableFixedOperations / #MetaphorVersusWeaknessStrength: #IndivActorJohnWayne / #TheoryCodedMasculinityOverRugged versus #OrgClassifPPCALiberalPartyJustinTrudeau / #CharacterisationWeaknessUnmanlyEffeminate i.e. #CharacterisationEmasculationAmbiguityAndrogyny :: #IndivHistoricalFigureMarilynMonroe / #TheoryCodedFemininityOver versus #IdentityLGBTQIATrans i.e. #CharacterisationEmasculationIndeterminacyEpicene / #OtheringOutGroupTransgressiveDeviant #TheoryModelBinary #MetaphorTransformationRetrogression #MetaphorVersusDiptych
Addendum: the
(masculine) #MetaphorVersusWeaknessStrength + (feminine) #MetaphorVersusPrettyUgly dichotomies presented seem self-evident, the fact that the comparison also sets up an opposition between people who are not alive against those who are #MetaphorVersusBlackAndWhiteColour i.e. #PleaNostalgia (and presumably, a narrative, which is stable and one, which continues to unfold). #TheoryDeclinism
#TheoryDeclinism #TheoryModelBinaryDualityManichean #TVSavedByTheBell 1990's version with #IndivActorTiffaniThiessen versus reboot version with #IndivActorJosieTotah #PleaNostalgia #PleaAuthenticity #TheoryModelBinary #MetaphorTransformationRetrogression #MetaphorVersusDiptych
Context: the tweet places both images within a #TheoryHegemonicMasculinity frame, which in doing so, positions Thiessen as #TheoryCodedFemininityOver archetype contrasted with Totah who, because of her #IdentityLGBTQIATrans status represents #OtheringOutGroupTransgressiveDeviant
Supplementary: when considered in context with tweets, which follow a similar trope there is a clear gender divide: males who don't fit masculine stereotypes are positioned in relation to a (good/bad) #MetaphorVersusHardSoft dichotomy whereas females who don't fit feminine stereotypes are positioned in relation to a (good/bad) #MetaphorVersusPrettyUgly (good/bad) dichotomy. #PleaAWorldOfSimpleStableFixedOperations

"Moral Bounds: Here action is seen as motion, and moral action is seen as motion within prescribed bounds or on a prescribed path. Immoral people are those who transgress the bounds or deviate from the path. The logic of this metaphor is that transgressors and deviants are dangerous to society not only because they can lead others astray, but because they create new paths to traverse, thus blurring the clear, prescribed, socially accepted boundaries between right and wrong." http://www.wwcd.org/issues/Lakoff.html #OtheringOutGroupTransgressiveDegenerate

Supplementary: "Declinism is the tendency to see the past in an overly positive light and to view the present or future in an overly negative light, leading us to believe that things are worse than they used to be. Declinism is often a feeling harbored about the overall state of a country, society, or institution, with the view that it is in decline or getting worse." https://thedecisionlab.com/biases/declinism

Assertion of conventional (social conservative) gender values. In doing so, the comparison can be seen as an example of #IndivScholarHenriTajfel's #OtheringStereotypeSocialIdentity around 'in' and 'out' groups, where two images of #OrgClassifPPUKLiberalDemocratLaylaMoran are presented in such a way as to signify a contrast (according the values of the person posting the tweet). On the left she is shown to (positively) represent a feminine archetype whereas on the right to (negatively) represent a #MetaphorWokeLiberal i.e. #OtheringOutGroup
