Because the animals are in Africa they are black lmao
LOTR Rings of Power in a Nutshell
Literally some Orc bullshit.
Then I canât take you seriously as you canât even explain to me exactly how coding and stereotypes are the same thing. At least tell me how because I canât guess your ideas and get them wrong.
The apes in tarzan??
Ohhhh dear fucking god, of course youâre going to take this to the extreme.
Ok yeah Iâm done here, I canât take this seriously anymore
Oh yeah those disney animals compared to the other disney animals!
not my fault you got yourself got.
Coding is literally just an excuse to talk about the exact same shit as Stereotyping. It takes small or inconsequential parts of a character to lump them into a category. Somebody dresses a certain way? Theyâre Coded. Somebody has a certain voice? Coded. Same fucking bullshit as stereotypes. Itâs ignortant & stupid.
Also I saw you fucking ask about White & Black Elves and quickly delete it when you remembered I introduced you to Kunoichi in DNF Duel and realized that was a fucking re-tarded thing to insinuate that Iâd have a problem with Elves, or a fictional species, of any color existing cause I promoted getting you to simp for a dark skinned Elf.
Never trust a filthy knife ear. Around elves⌠watch yourselves.
I deleted it because the next thought had nothing to do with this so it didnât make sense of keeping this. But if you must know:
There is recent debate about how white and dark skinned elves are potrayed in media, namely that white elves are good and dark skinned elves are chaotic beings. People didnât like the idea of dark always means bad, since the real life implications of dark skinned people mean bad, IE black people seen as insert stereotype here. Lots of neckbeards get mad that they canât keep the dark skinned elves or whatever race as it is cuz DA AGENDA, but it seems like youâre on board on fuck the dumb notion of white skinned elves = good and dark skinned elves = bad. So I deleted it as it had no place in the argument. It wasnât even complete so again, taken out of context of a barely done thought.
Also the racism of low expectations. Theres a dude who went around a college campus and asked white students if they thought voter ID laws were racist. They said yes that it disenfranchises black people and essentially said blacks were too stupid and poor to get IDs. Its so great watching it.
- The Dark Elves in DND & TES are typicall Blue & Purple. So when theyâre an evil race thereâs literally no real world implications.
- Actual Black Elves exist more in Eastern media then they do Western Media & the worst thing you can say about their portrayel there is that EVERYBODY wants to dump a fat load in them.
Yeah I know but Iâm talking about how they are seen and consumed in Western Media, namely America as itâs where the conversation about this topic is mainly taken place. Itâs why they also want to stop making Orks bad as it implies that a race can always be bad and somehow no good can exist. Which does feed into how there are people out there today that actually think that about a group of people
There is nothing wrong with having a race of evil beings. Itâs fucking fiction. Are the Xenomorphs racist because they come in shades of Black & Brown mostly & have no morality, no guilt?
People who think this shit feeds into real life are the same kind of inbred fuckwits who believe Video Games cause violence.
Except its explained WHY they are evil. Drow are evil because their god is evil and controls them with an iron fist, granted there are some that escape. Orcs in DnD are evil because their progenitor god is an evil warmongering and blood thirsty god. Orcs in LotR are evil because they were elves that were literally twisted and corrupted by what is essentially the Devil in that universe.
They were literally created TO BE EVIL by cosmic beings!
Also Tolkien is literally on record as saying âThe world of Middle-Earth is entirely unrealistic in its Black & White Portrayal. In Middle-Earth the story is about the Races of Men, Dwarves & Elves against the Goblins & Orcs. In real life, in war: both sides are a mix of Elves, Men & Orcs. Just pray that you serve under an Elf, not an Orc.â
Sounds like orcs are black people to me! Also goblins are jews because they love money! See how not racist I am by pointing this out?
Oh boy if Goblins are meant to be Jews then I am in big trouble for dressing my Goblins up in Ancient Greek style attire. Thatâs cultural appropriation. Clearly things should just be stereotypes.
Again, not my argument but you did say that coding = stereotypes.
So again, idk what you are even talking about anymore and you genuinely confused me.
You said that characters like Mufasa are Coded. I donât agree, I think anyone who says something has âCodeâ just wants to stereotype. Simplest I can put it, we are operating on a 3rd grade level here.
But hey since you believe that a characterâs Voice Actor dictates stuff about them. Tell me, how is Sonic âCodedâ? He has had, at this point in time, Two Black Voice Actors, Four White Voice Actors & Two Asian Voice Actors. Whatâs his coding since VAs dictate that? Apparently, the cartoon Lion is Black so letâs figure out what the cartoon Hedgehog is.
