This went way over my head and I was thinking: the writer’s taken their mask off as a racist??
Didn’t make the colour connection
Let’s not forget that the native guy was the red ranger
And the white boy and girl were blue and pink respectively.
“White power”… “ranger”
Honestly couldn’t care less about it, at least they were casted in the 90’s.
What’s he got to say about Billie’s actor being bullied off the show for being gay?

On the other side, the Yellow Ranger had a visible bulge so let’s call that progressive.
That was due in large part to the fully suited scenes being cut from the orginal show. The characters we know in the English version are really a separate cast.
Thank You, Captain Obvious.
What’s obvious to you has never been heard of by other people so congratulations. You’re a dick, please fuck off.
I have a vague memory that the original show from Japan had a man in the yellow costume and when it was adapted for American audiences they wanted yellow to be a woman. This lead to a effectively trans character because of an occasionally noticeable bulge.
Power Rangers is a patchwork work edited with footage from a few different shows. Robots from one, costume fights from others. It was not really a reboot, they just took the footage of this yellow-costumed guy fighting and use it directly.
