literally anyone trying to defend ts has to be a cia agent bc no matter where the story goes why even have it take place right after the Civil war
my point exactly. base this shit off of some made up world without using sensitive topics of history.
bro could've done some brokeback mountain shit instead of this racist rhetoric
Thank u sooo much for writing this comment
and to the bitches leaving thumbs down, its clear this is either 1, ur fantasy 2, what you support or 3, poorly educated on.
i know u probably wont read all of this but since bitches are so adamant on saying “its not racist! It's just a drawing!” Let me say sum shit bc clearly yall some hollowheaded bitches.
1. The ‘White Savior’ trope, this trope is completely inappropriate for a BL set in this time period. Matter of fact, the timeline for the BL is inappropriate. Your main defense is that oh no he fought in the union and gave money to slaves to relocate! No, he did this to make his father proud. And giving the money to the slaves? Plot device to paint him as the good guy like you guys can't see that? And his family were former slave owners, making him do this is just trying to paint him as an ‘oh im not like other guys, i care for the POC community’.
2. The inaccurate depiction of slavery and slaves after the war. Slaves were not just simply let go and given money. They were still kept, despite the location, north or south, they were still kept. And even if they were given money to go someplace else, a lot can't. This is America. Jim Crow laws ring a bell in that hollow little head of yours? Like ‘lets take actual history and throw it out.’ says the author of this shitty racist slop. They have no features and seemingly are only there as a plot device to make the white man seem like a savior to all.
3. The racist connotations. Why are we showing a confederate flag? Why are we not properly drawing the black people even if they are background and will never be seen again. To have a BL set in this time period, it's very important to highlight what made this period of time so important. And sure you can defend the last panel as sarcasm but in that timeline and period? Why would that be necessary, like genuinely?
That's all for you hollow headed bitches, if you wanna respond, go ahead, if u have more points, say them but i already said enough to make it clear why this shit is not ok and clearly racist.
