Basic Trope: A character who displays more progressive worldviews for their time
- Straight: Bob is a white man in the 1800's, yet he treats Alice, a black women as his equal.
- Exaggerated: Bob also believes that women should stay out of the kitchen.... racial minorities should be treated well... basically a 21st person in a 1800's time period.
- Downplayed: ???
- Justified: Bob is a time traveler who got stranded in the 1800's
- Inverted: Bob treats everyone who doesn't share the exact same traits as him as dirt.
- Subverted: He only treats Alice nicely because she has some "nice benefits."
- Double Subverted: Only to grow to actually hear her out and help her plight.
- Parodied: Bob dresses like a hippie, chanting peace for all.
- Zig Zagged: ???
- Averted: Bob acts how you would expect a slave owner in the 1800s to act.
- Enforced: "We might get cancelled if we show Bob as a man of this time"
- Lampshaded: "Your views are one century ahead."
- Invoked: ???
- Exploited: Alice realizes that Bob is from the future, and inquires him about will will happen.
- Defied: response to enforced "Yeah. But making him a man of his time would make for a more interesting story."
- Discussed: ???
- Conversed: ???
- Deconstructed: Only Bob is quite progressive, everyone around him shows views for their time, and as a result, he loses out on deals, and is cornered into bankruptcy.
- Reconstructed: ???
