Hornet Is TRANS-Coded?! The Hollow Knight Silksong Controversy

Hollow Knight: Silksong has finally released, but instead of just celebrating the launch, a bizarre debate has taken over the community. On X and Reddit, fans are claiming that Hornet and other characters in Silksong are “trans-coded.” Some even argue that if you don’t see it, you’re transphobic.

In this video, I break down how this started, the wild posts fueling the debate, and why Silksong’s release is already caught up in identity politics. Is Hornet really trans-coded—or is this just another case of people hijacking a game for internet discourse?

Silksong should be about gameplay, music, and Team Cherry’s amazing world design. But once again, it’s being turned into a culture war. Let’s talk about it.
