doesn’t everyone love their slave-master rapeslop? oh also the male lead is a person of color portrayed as a beastly and dangerous man, oh and a slave master
There is a very prevalent trend and pattern of Korean studios portraying darker skinned men as violent, aggressive and beastly, while pale skinned men and women are frequently portrayed as elegant, refined and above said darker skinned subjects. It’s rooted in colorism, and is fully intentional to manipulate viewers into seeing darker skinned characters as naturally lacking class and refinement. It’s racism.
what the fuck is your problem? We were having a civil conversation until you started throwing accusations, grow the fuck up. I'm not excusing shit, I'm asking because I'm curious, is that a crime? Is it a crime to question things because you're unsure? Just because what I'm questioning is racism that doesn't automatically mean I'm excusing it.
Y'all really need to get checked lmfao.. The only one who was properly conversing and explaining to me was Tequila Mongers, while you two are just throwing accusations around, where I can maybe understand Juniper's confusion because me asking questions does set me on an unsure footing. (Therefore them believing I'm excusing 'racism.') But on the other hand, this disgusting ass BLUE person feels really comfortable calling people racist without a second thought, makes me understand you think of racism as something light, which is why you can throw such a deragatory word so freely. Racism isn't something all fun and simple that you can toss at everyone at the slightest disagreement, ew...
This is actually so fucking disgusting I know I was taking it as a joke at first but why do you believe black people aren't allowed to think the way I think? You're putting black people into your expectations? We can tell who's racist now. I can have any opinion I want, me being black doesn't have anything to do with it. Black people aren't angels, and white people aren't devils, you're harming both skin colors by thinking that way.
All this coming from a person who called me a "weird ass bitch" all because I said "Another racist Manhwa i don't plan on reading". And you still processed to say "what if he's black and just so happened to be violent" after someone tried to correct you, now you're crying wolf I know people like you drive joy accusing others of something they didn't do then you sit at home with your white couch and pretend you're a good person. You better stop acting like your are a saint and grow the fuck up
Yeah no I don't even know how to express my immense disgust, you're such a piece of shit, what the fuck ... It sounds way softer in text but this is literally vomit-inducing, like you're genuinely so fucking extremely gross for thinking this way. Accusing me of being racist when you fit racist stereotypes, holy fucking shit, this is sickening and unbearably offensive.
Ohhh so you're truly a dumbass. First of all, I wasn't talk to you when I sent my first message, nowhere does it say I was replying to you. Second of all, I was calling the author a weird ass bitch. Just because I didn't add commas, that doesn't make my entire sentence fall apart, I clearly said, "Weird ass bitch yes racist maybe" which point towards that I was calling the author a weird ass bitch and maybe racist. I'm acting like a saint bc I'm calling you out on your wrong doings? You're the only one who needs to grow up, how slow must one be? Seriously, get your head out your ass.
Okay, so if a POC just so happens to be portrayed as violent, this doesn’t have to immediately warrant red flags, as anyone can have a violent personality, what you have to look for is the context surrounding the character, are they violent due to any cultural context that might seem offensive, such as tribal culture which is often framed as beastly? Or are they violent due to trauma, or a past event(s) that may have shaped their character to be overtly defensive and aggressive, this example is okay, a character who is violent that isn’t depicted by their proximity to ‘beastly’ or ‘wild’ culture, could definitely not be racist.
Although this is one example, you should always keep an eye out for how they treat people of color in manwha, how much care an artist/studio puts into their characters backgrounds, their appearances. There is ignorance in everything, while it may not be intentional, it is their responsibility to unlearn and correct these mistakes, and the reader’s responsibility to hold them accountable.
it is genuinely devastating to watch all the decency get meticulously stripped from someone who’s life was quite literally treated as a commodity at one point, knowing that he CHOSE this. I want to care, and I really do, but everything Mincheol does is a bitter pill resulted from the decisions he made. A lot of people don’t care for his backstory, but I do, I actually like to see what made the man, just as much as I like the current storyline. Gives them substance beyond the shitty choices they make
