As someone working tangentially related to that field I am allowed to call for the elimination of the humanities.

They are like millions of indie devs on steam, instead of "what if I took Metroidvania but added a tiny bit of Dark Souls", it's "what if I regurgitate everything from the Frankfurt school and add COVID or structural racism."   

You know why it's offensive? Because it's fucking boring. I can read the title of something and know exactly what dumbass word salad Marxist retread shit it's going to say, I'm lucky if I can get halfway through the abstract.

User Banned (2 Weeks): Dismissive Commentary Around Racism; Reverse Racism

Making fun of white people is not being racist towards white people.

Being racist towards white people would require erecting and leveraging systems of power that put white people at the bottom of a hierarchy. No such thing exists, so it is therefore impossible to be racist towards white people.

Bullshit. Racism is discrimination and prejudice against people based on race or ethnicity. What you are describing is just one form of racism, systemic.

Do me a favor. Put me on your ignore list and don't respond to my posts ever again. I don't want bigots in my comments who make up excuses to justify prejudice against someone because they happen to have the same skin tone as someone else.

I think saying it's impossible to be racist against a race is a bit more dismissive of concerns about racism, no?

The fact that South Park not only isn't banned here, but actively has fans that watch the newest stuff and talk about how great it is definitely is depressing. Especially considering the demographics of era.

30+ year old white men and equivalent shut-ins of other ethnicities seems the proper demographic for South Park, no?

Banning movies & music - not sure where this is even actually happening.

Canceling actors or writers - no one is entitled to our attention. People who commit heinous acts or espouse heinous views should be shunned if they cannot be legally punished.

Ooof, canceling actors and writers IS NOT HAPPENING.

At least he admits he wants people legally punished for having views that don't align with the state but he's angry because that's mostly thwarted.

There's a world outside of context
And it's the world I only hear
Where the only info flowing
Is directly in my ears
And to the posters offering background
It's not something I do
So I'm that sure it's not me, it must be you

And there won't be growth on this forum this Christmas time
The hottest gift you'll get this year is takes
Where no one ever grows
No corrections nor infos
Don't they know that I'm most right of all?

So far, in my limited social media sphere, I've seen two criticisms of this trailer.

The first is, yeah, a lot of people misunderstanding the "magical negro" trope or that the first half of the trailer CLEARY presents as a subversion of it. Seriously, the first half of the trailer is great (imo) — subverting Black "sidekick/helper" tropes with a healthy dose of Fantasy AND bagging on white people? I'm in the theater DAY ONE.

But, there's a reason a lot of Black folks are seperating the first half of the trailer from the second half, and that reason isn't the romcom vibes, it's the casting. You might not be aware of this being a contentious subject at the moment if you are not a Black person heavily involved in "Black People Business"…and I want to be clear, I'm not trashing or against interracial couples, I myself am from an interracial family.. But, in the context of THIS story…if it's played straight as is presented in the trailor and there is no twist, and the main character's central conflict is whether or not he'll betray a society of magical Black people in order to be with his white non-Black woman…that is stepping on MULTIPLE sore spots in the Black community historically, a few of which are currently being examined.

Shit, even I'm saying…if there's no twist…y'all can keep this.

This sounds... problematic...

Also hilarious when the first page has a couple of "can't wait for those white tears" posts and then it's apparently the black community upset that the love interest isn't black

[MJBarret]

"Now I'm not against miscegenation, but...."

[benji]

White tears? Who else is the audience for something called "The American Society of Magical Negroes" but white people?

[HaughtyFrank]

Also another case of Asians being considered white adjacent by Royalan calling her "white non-black"

[Gamegirl Nostalgia]

I can't believe such a transphobic show is lauded by the Era community..

Ok, so why's it on yours?

Google is free btw. Y'all don't need to so very heavily speculate when the answers anre on freely available websites. And yes, making a remake of a game is absolutely a "real" work.
