Replying to @pator_x
And I'll be completely honest with you here, SOMETIMES I don't find that an issue. It's when I see POC outright disrespecting the original race of the character as if giving them melanin has made them "better"

- Replying to @heroinesfemmeThen tell EVERYONE to get over themselves 🤷♂️ if people can get pissy over a black character turned white then I can do the same when the opposite is done.
- Replying to @SeaWereWolf3With the way I've seen some artists "redesign" these existing characters, they could very well just label them as new characters entirely. Just put them in different clothes and I would never know the difference
- Replying to @1002Col5403I have, but they tend to be the sort who participate in racism proudly & will say with their whole chest that "black people can't be racist."
- Replying to @heroinesfemmeI do. But I never see the "It's just a drawing" argument going over smoothly when it's whitewashing involved either so you're point is?
- Replying to @SynnamonBoiI genuinely don't mind the people that are arguing my opinion. That's the point of a opinion, to open a discussion and get to the root of things. Racism is EVERYWHERE. I've seen white people be racist. I've seen black people be racist. And so on and so forth. It isn't confined.
- Replying to @pator_xI agree with that. I've seen instances where a character is meant to be a POC but have little to no true representation of that. I love those. But I've also seen people swap races for the sake of being vindictive, as if it's a middle finger to the other race.
- Replying to @RayTracingVA_18 and @heroinesfemmeNO BECAUSE THAT'S GENUINELY HOW I FEEL WHEN I MAKE A MISTAKE LMAO SOMEONE COULD HIT ME WITH "stfu you can't even english" AND I'LL TAKE THAT
- Replying to @Toast_Jenshin and @SeaWereWolf3I'm not too involved in Genshin because the community absolutely terrifies me, but if that really is the case then I support the artists showcasing the right representation of said characters.
- Replying to @marsealnzMe, platonically strangling my friend whilst casually relaying how I could end their life in various ways but always ending the conversation with "but you're my friend so you're safe" and them having no room to respond because they know I'm correct:
- Replying to @heroinesfemmeWell...that's a completely different conversation that I also have strong opinions about. But, I am confused why you would just suddenly assume I condone lolicon & similar subjects, because I simply enjoy anime?
- Replying to @Magicci__I wouldn't say it was a "stupid opinion" if a considerable amount of people agree with it. It's an opinion that needs to be discussed if there are so many that feel the same. And as far as I've seen, no one has been openly racist on this post.
