That is what I find mind-blowing too.
There are no need for nuanced and lentghy essays and paragraphs to explain why this is racist and harmful.
It's crystal clear that jaxx thought she could get away with it because most fujos endorse and gloss over sexism and pedophelia, so she didn't expect backlash
This whole situation is really eye opening to the sheer amount of undercover racists that exist around us. The fact that we have to have full blown debates and arguments about how this story was racist is absolutely insane.
People love to use the argument "you guys don't complain about rape in BL but suddenly have an issue with slavery" like people haven't openly criticized manga like Jinx for its rape and what do yall do? Act like it's not a big deal or tell them not to read it if they want to complain.
In this current political climate, it's wildly brain dead and insensitive to think about publishing a slave x slave master romance story, ESPECIALLY since slavery still exists in the US. I've seen people blaming Indigenous and Black people for it being canceled and being "too sensitive" instead of addressing and understanding the issue. You aren't a person of color so you don't get it. Don't go around on the internet telling people how they should feel and how their feelings aren't valid just because you're too ignorant and can't address your own racist behavior. All yall care about is the next story you thirst and goon over.
