Remove Brainstar

1. The article is poorly researched and ideologically slanted towards a somewhat reactionary bent. The article seems to think that the implication of "prejudice + power" is that it's okay to mistreat white people for being white; which is an obvious strawman. Also the fact the article opens with a Sarkeesian quote instead of citing something from say race studies or sociology kind of betrays a lack of familiarity with the topic when it's critically engaged with academically. It's not that this concept is not without criticism, but that criticism should be presented in a good faith interpretation of the concept. The principle of charity is solely lacking. This is an observation voiced repeatedly in the talk page, and some folks with said reactionary bent are singing this article's praises. Only Sort of Dumb (talk) 21:50, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

• I believe promotions from bronze can be done unilaterally, so there's no need for an AFDem Plutocow (talk) 21:54, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

  Given how contentious this is, that would be unwise. Andrew5 (talk) 21:56, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

  Promotions can be done unilaterally but it's better to shoot a talk page discussion than hold a vote IMO but anyway, that ship has sailed. --It's-a me, LeftyGreenMario! 22:12, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

  Can I just remove the brainstar then? - Only Sort of Dumb (talk) 23:33, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

  Technically you can and then write up a talk page comment explaining such. If someone reverts, then yeah better chat. --It's-a me, LeftyGreenMario! 23:35, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
