(aka why real world politics SHOULDN'T and NEVER play a role in Power Rangers or Western Entertainment )
LuPat should be adapted into Power Rangers in the near future. Im not a hardcore LuPat fan, but I'm also not a fan of companies purposely kneecapping their potential of growth and uniqueness out of fear of offending weirdos on social media, especially when it's proven that they don't watch the show.
I'm talking about when Simon Bennett said that LuPat may never be adapted into Power Rangers because of the cops and robbers theme (Rangers can't be thieves/Too problematic)
Freedom is a two way street and it shouldn't be one sided. I do NOT hate LGBTQ people, but you need to understand that with what's happening right now with Disney, it's blatantly obvious that not every single parent wants their child exposed to LGBTQ content, and it DOESN'T automatically make them homophobic bigots, more than likely they don't want their kids exposed to it at a young age.
It doesn't seem right to limit the show to one side. Saying that it's okay to expose kids to LGBTQ content in Power Rangers when parents don't want it near them, but it's immoral to adapt a Sentai season because it paints Cops in a good light.
LuPat is one of the many unique seasons we could possibly have. It breaks the mold of boring and safe Power Rangers we've had for over a decade. With good writing and good advertising, it could help Power Rangers thrive instead of potentially ending it all to make an unnecessary reboot in an obvious attempt to be like the MCU.
I reject ALL forms of hatred against LGBTQ people, but I also reject the the notion that ALL Cops in America are evil racist white men that want to shoot minorities for fun.
That's why LuPat should be adapted into Power Rangers in the future....barring the rumor.

Dude, no offense, but this show will NEVER be adapted into Power Rangers because Simon Bennett doesn't like the idea of turning cops and robbers into Power Rangers. S.P.D. is a different story because it was released in 2005. Years before the Black Lives Matter movement was even a thing. Also, how are you going to explain to kids about why this set of Police Power Rangers team is chasing after another set of Power Rangers that look like magicians in adaptation? Not to mention that LuPat doesn't have enough toys to sell to kids. So yeah, you're gonna have to find a different Sentai series to be adapted into Power Rangers.

For me I still don't see theme being a problem. We have had multi police theme serirs. So that isn't a problem. And the thief rangers don't have to be bad guys. They could be more Robin hood type guys like red and yellow spd was before they join spd. No reason this series couldn't be adapted in my mind. The only reason I could see this or any of the others non adapted shows yet. Could be if we are truly no longer going to work with toei. And if that is true that would likely legally prevent hasbro from having accessing to non adapted shows. They would of course still own the rights to use adapted shows in what ever ways. Same if the present pru will still be a thing to bring into future crossovers with what ever the new Netflix pru be.

I understand where you are coming from, But the only reason the adaptation would be a problem is if they made it a problem. Simon Bennett is basically making an unnecessary solution to an imaginary problem. Remember the show is for little kids and more than likely a majority of kids don't care or know about the Black Lives Matter movement or what happened to George Floyd. Only adults would care. Another problem is that the Sentai is kinda bias towards Lupinranger and their Ultrazord sucks. I'm just saying No Sentai potential should be abandoned due to stupid reasons that don't effect the target audience in general.

Also another thing look how vastly different some us adaption been to sentai. Like in space to its sentai, rpm to its sentai. They could totally change things around. Who say it be a straight up cardboard copy like samurai was to it sentai.

And with all due the respect, I don't think Simon Bennet gonna stay forever. There is clues that probably Dino Fury gonna be his last season. We don't know yet. "Never say never" is a motto in Power Rangers. They said they never gonna adapt Go-Busters, and here we are. Before the bought of Hasbro, they were planning to adapt Kyuranger....... And, with all the due respect, Black Lives Matter seems very criticized right now. And people have other priorities right now. Food shortage, a war in Europe, crimes rising.....Without being too political, LuPat can be adapted too. It needs good writers. Again, Go-Busters didn't have too much toys, and yet, it was adapted......

Again, Go-Busters didn't have too much toys, and yet, it was adapted...... Well, tatsuranger probably gave me a better response to my post. So, I will have to take his word on this one. However, he did bring a valid point to what's really wrong with Lupinranger vs. Patoranger as a TV series. The show does seemed to care more about the Phantom Thieves than it does with the cops and that is a problem. Especially if anyone is going to adapt the show for a western audience. Plus, the ultimate mech combination compared to the more recent ones in 2008 to today is one of the most butt-ugliest looking ultimate me combination I have ever seen. I mean the ones in Ninninger looked more bad-ass than this ones. And they were using the Lion Overlord mech like it's a freaking chariot in that mech combination. Very reminiscent to the Ultimate Daizyujin in Zyuranger. (Oh my God!!! Was it really that intentional to adapt Ninninger into Power Rangers Ninja Steel and to make it feel like I'm watching Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers [Season One])?! *Tootsie Pop announcer: "The world may never know!!"*

(aka why real world politics SHOULDN'T and NEVER play a role in Power Rangers or Western Entertainment Oh boooy. It's always something when the neckbeards try to talk about social issues. ) Hot take. No it shouldn't. Not because of the cop thing (which this fandom largely seems utterly clueless on the issue) but because it looks really stupid. Oof. Since its plain as day you have absolutely no fucking clue what you're talking about. Let me break it down for you Florida introduced bill HB 1557 Parental Rights in Education (popularized as Don't Say Bill)https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/Sections/Bills/billsdetail.aspx?BillId=76545 Which, among other things, restricts classroom discussion of sexual orientation or gender identity. Which is of course purposely vague as hell. What does that even mean? Contrary to popular right wing nutjobs beliefs no 3rd classroom is teaching kids about gay sex or lesbian scissorings. Some of interpreted that it wouldn't allow a student to come out to a teacher they trusted without a parent being notified (which depending on the parent can be very bad) or that a gay teacher would not be allowed to even mention their same sex partner (when straight teachers mention their spouses all the time) Not helping that when Florida lawmakers tried to pass amendments to make the bill seem less LGBTQ targeted and a general restriction on human sexuality and sexual activity. That didn't pass. www.wfla.com/news/politics/florida-dont-say-gay-bill-could-become-dont-say-sex/Hmmmm. I wonder why that is? It's almost like the bill was indeed targeting LGBTQ people. 😮 But then it gets out that Disney had actually donated money to a lot of the politicians backing this bill wdwnt.com/2022/02/disney-donates-to-sponsors-of-dont-say-gay-bill-despite-marketing-for-inclusion/Which, yeah, sounds absolutely hypocritical of Disney given they'll sell Pride merch and occasionally include LGBT characters in their films (the fact those scenes are so insignificant and easy to remove for less accepting foreign markets is whole other matter) So naturally several Disney employees, many of them LGBTQ, protest the hypocrisy of their company. Disney apologizes and pauses all political donations to Florida www.cnbc.com/2022/03/11/disney-pauses-political-donations-in-florida-over-dont-say-gay-bill-backlash.htmlAnd because the right wing had proven time and time again the party has devolved to batshit insane brain dead bigoted lunatics they immediately start screaming about Disney grooming children because.....they wont support a bill that many of their employees feels discriminated by? Yes, yes it does. Exposed to what? Other people? These are the same parents that will indoctrinate their children in their religion but heaven forbid little Timmy finds out some kids have two moms!!!! False equivalences. The weapon of the idiot! Power Rangers has CONSTANTLY depicted relationships. Incredibly chaste relationships but relationships all the same. There is no pro-gay message. They don't go into some long discussion about marriage equality or gay rights. Izzy is just given a girl she likes. Literally no different than any of the dozens and dozens of straight relationships. The Police are a whole other issue. When we have police killing people with mental disabilities namiillinois.org/half-people-killed-police-disability-report/When there's a huge issue of officers killing unarmed black people, killing black people in their sleep, killing black people for looking...suspicious despite being completely harmless www.nytimes.com/article/who-was-elijah-mcclain.htmlMaybe. JUST. MAYBE its not the best idea in the world to have your kids toy commercial glorify police officers. When racial profiling abuse of power and brutality are clear issues that need to be address. TL:DR - Y'all are fucking frustrating in how clueless you all are.

Venusaur didn't say anything that wasn't true, though. Was it a little harsh at points? Sure, you can argue that, but it made sense and was all based in fact.
The idea that gay people's existence is something that should be hidden from small children is homophobic. Showing that gay people exist in the show is not at all comparable to having a series glorifying police, which is what the entire opening post was using as an example.
As for "Not helping", several articles were posted that could be helpful to someone who didn't know that information beforehand.

Neither do you, Venusar. Do you really believe posting here "Don't say gay bill" or whatever is some kind of insight or just a pathetic attempt to look smart? You attack other people opinions, say BS about people and try to be an a$$hole if somebody oppose you. You're most of the times, don't give refutations, arguments or anything similar to prove your point. Just you said "I prove my point" or "you proved my point". Come on, you can call me an idiot anytime and basically you're becoming a fool of yourself.
EDIT:
"As for "Not helping", several articles were posted that could be helpful to someone who didn't know that information beforehand."
Look, I don't want to be a moron. But here is not posting articles that claim any single evidence of that. If we can have a debate about homophobia or LGBT characters, there is another post for that.
