people will do ANYTHING to justify focusing on a white man in a movie with a black main character.

Mary and Clark from the backrooms are such interesting characters, so why am I only seeing weird posts of the fuckass white boy with 4 minutes of screentime? It's js so dumb because he's not even that cute, and he was more irritating than anything.

At this point it feels like a goddamn social experiment. One that proved itself true within a goddamn day.

Hypothesis: People will look past POC, especially Black people and any women in media to fixate on the white men especially if they're skinny.

Method: People watch the Backrooms film and then post about it on Tumblr, openly showing which characters they decided to fixate on. This is then observed by everyone else to decide which characters are the most popular.

Result: "Hey Tumblr, here's a film where the two main characters are a woman and a Black man - they're fully fleshed out, complex, have real personalities and have the most screen time which one is your fav-ah I see, you've fixated on the skinny white boy stoner who died quickly in the first half and the white guy who appeared a little bit through it and mostly at the end who also has little personality. No no don't worry I don't think you're racist and sexist this eye rolling is completely unrelated."

Encountered a small blind cat while hiking in Montenegro. That didn't stop her from being very friendly!
