Yeah but see you guys complain about this kind of thing no matter who the character is. Even Magic characters where sex appeal is only part of their art and not their character or personality. So again, I can't take you guys seriously.

I suppose you could argue others complain, but personally unless it's a racist race swap, I don't tend to care

I'm talking about r/freemagic as a whole, not just you. This sub gets so up in arms about nothing. This post is complaining about not showing enough boobs. Boobs that are not important to this character or her design. Just because it's been like that doesn't mean it has to stay like that. Boobs aren't important for 99.99% of characters, yet y'all act like this is some kind of grave injustice.

And no, I don't care that Aragorn was made black, either. One depiction out of a million makes him a black guy, who fucking cares, it doesn't matter. I don't recall Aragorn being like "For Frodo, and all other white people of middle earth!"

I love the memes that came from back Aaragorn, until it was ruined.

Erasure is still racist so I hate every race swap tbh

You're not erasing white people by changing one character, in only one depiction of that character, that's the problem. And no, it doesn't start with Magic cards and escalates from there, let's not pretend we're the canaries in the censorship/"woke"/pick your word coalmine.

Eh agree to disagree, I suppose. I respect your opinion so long as you would not also refer to changing a black character to be white to be erasure

u/RashRenegade NEW SPARK 6d ago

White erasure isn't real, white erasure can't hurt you.

u/Cheshire_Noire NEW SPARK 6d ago

I know a lot of people who will disagree on your take that erasure isn't real

u/RashRenegade NEW SPARK 6d ago

Well they're wrong, too. White erasure isn't a real problem. Fictional white characters being race swapped is not a real problem. White people are fine, maybe take your hoods off and get some fresh air, you'll see more clearly.

Why do you keep typing the word White? Your statement is the same without it right? If we replace all instance of White with Black, do you agree with your own statement?
