Am I Like The Only Person Who Gets A Littlemmmm About Fans Who See An Asian Character And Decide To Change

am i like the only person who gets a little ‘mmmm’ about fans who see an Asian character and decide to change them to “make better representation” and obviously:

a) don’t know there are dark-skinned Asians b) don’t know there are mixed Asians c) keep perpetuating the stereotype that All Asians are white adjacent

Honey, sweetheart, baby, I said plenty of times that I don’t defend him, that I acknowledge he did bad and he’s not uwu character. I watched that arc a month ago and there are holes in my mind of course.

True, i didn’t bring up the boss saying all that bc I didn’t feel it was necessary. And I said it didn’t i, bnha isn’t that deep. 90% there won’t be redemption just fun fights. I’m just theorizing bc its fun lol.

Like, I’m aware that I’m overanalysing.

Since we have that explained, I still think it would be fun to see a redemption in the show. And I still think, at this moment, he got best qualifications for that

You keep claiming you’re not defending him and then say consistently dumbass shit like this

Thesmoothpudding:

He only made a mistake because he’s only a young adult man with a brain, but it was for the good of the world because that’s the type of person he is, wow.

Thesmoothpudding:

His morals are wrong because of the yakuza. Horikoshi isn’t deep, because *I* recognize potential. yeah ok.

I wasn’t annoyed about this until you busted out the condescending “Honey, sweetheart, baby” bullshit, so, uh. fuck off? Kai made a conscious decision to do these awful things. Nobody, especially not myself or Alice, ever said “Kai was born evil”. You can write all the meta and fanfic your heart desires, but IDFK why you somehow expect to not get a response when you reply to someone’ else’s post being excruciatingly tone deaf and lacking in reading comprehension and context skills.

Been seeing people misuse the term "internalized" wrt prejudices lately which is. Gonna drive me up the wall if it continues I must say

White people can't have internalized racism, that's just being racist. Straight people can't have internalized homophobia, that's just being homophobic. Etc etc etc. The entire point of these terms is to describe when oppressed people hate themselves I swear to god words mean things sometimes
