What is orientalism? What does it have to do with the Gerudo? I’m so glad you asked!
I’ve been working on this video since November. It was originally going to be a quick response to a bad-faith video, but it quickly snowballed into a 10,000 word script and months of research. Oops! Hopefully you’ll at least learn something new. I had a ton of fun working on this video, and it was so rewarding to see it come together. I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I enjoyed making it.
