when reform gets in at my local election so i genuinely start sobbing because if it wasn't bad enough before, it's about to be so much worse

"I left everything I gathered in one place"

and he left his wife and child in one place so with the death of Rouge, Ace was the final remaining one piece, meaning that Whitebeard was temporarily King of the Pirates and that Luffy was always destined to be King of the Pirates as Ace became his brother

something about true wealth is the power of friendship and family and love seems on brand for one piece

[felucians]

mexican Ace is real

the one piece is REAL

[felucians]

i'm convinced those who think Nami would trade ANY of the other strawhats for gold skipped Skypiea?? she legitimately says "friendship is more important than gold", that's not even media literacy anymore, that's just hating a woman character for no reason??

[felucians]

"skypiea is a skippable arc"

you're missing luffy picking a fight with god 😭 i fear you're wrong

watching your party self-implode like it's not the only left leaning alternative to labour that was gaining media attention - greens have been sidelined for years, libdems have disappeared in after their coalition with right wing conservatives. we're essentially witnessing the fall into fascism, on all political party sides, within the UK and the major right leaning parties (Conservative, Reform) have successfully unionised as seen by countless protests across England and the rising nationalism with the raising of English flags (disguised as national pride which centrists are falling for, and being pushed further right because "it's just a flag" until the movement was started to deliberately terrorise immigrants and poc by a racist)

genuinely y'all need to leave Vivi's actress alone, she's quite literally not at fault for booking a role, it's the casting's issue for not casting a MENA - specifically Egyptian - actress. Her skin tone is not the issue because actual Egyptians (speaking as one) are VERY diverse, we come in all shades and have multiple ethnic groups NATIVE to Egypt - Imazighen, Copts, Nubians, etc - there can be white presenting Egyptians and Black Egyptians in the same family, we're not monolithic.

Bullying the actress for her skin tone is outright disgusting, you can feel upset at the casting because of the fact that they interchange MENA and South Asian people and often conflate our cultures and reduce them to stereotypes (i.e. Aladdin and its orientalism) but it's been 8 hours and I've seen racial slurs already being thrown at her for no reason at all.

The issue is Netflix and its casting (as Oda has only cast the Strawhats himself) - leave the actress alone.

This has been an Egyptian's PSA.

if Keir Starmer doesn't have Zarah Sultana and Diane Abbott on his governmental panel, he's an idiot. Those are two of the most beloved labour candidates in this country and consistent labour strongholds.

I would highly expect them to default to a Corbyn led party if he ever formed one, especially if they face the disrespect of not being chosen on this governmental panel - Sultana and Abbott have done extraordinary campaigns and are vocal figureheads for the labour party on an international scale - not valuing and honouring that would be a potentially fatal mistake

[pinkrabbitsbythenational]

one year since this post was made and 💁🏻‍♀️

[felucians]

and I'm a prophet because Corbyn and Sultana just announced their new party

not sure who still needs to hear this but the idea that pietro was a social outcast among his people growing up is just a bunch of bullshit.

‘He’s white passing because he was rejected by his people for it’ not he isn’t and no the fuck he wasn’t😭 that shit never happened, it’s just some nonsense a white American pulled out of his ass one time.

It was the white Europeans hate crimes that made him feel like an outsider not his own damn people. The trauma of pietros childhood is RACISM. Thats what he was persecuted for, thats what creates the systematic barriers he grew up in, that’s what criminalised his people, that’s what displaces him from his home, thats what orphaned him and slaughtered his community.

The fact that he was so close to his people and they were the only thing that made him feel like he belonged and then losing them to such violent bigotry is exactly why pietro struggles with rebuilding a sense of community afterwards, this comes up in like all his comics.

This applies to wanda as well, pulling up one panel from a comic that bastardises and stereotypes her heritage is not the gotcha you think it is. The fact that wanda is a marginalised woc who has had to fight to protect and reclaim her culture from appropriation is a really important part of her identity, it’s literally the whole reason she calls herself scarlet witch. To turn that sentiment around and direct it at her and frame her as a clumsy white woman overstepping the cultural boundaries of other marginalised spaces is just bad writing, it’s not proof that she’s ‘whitepassing’.

There’s no one ‘correct’ way to portray Romani people but this idea that Wanda or Pietro are canonically white/ white passing is literally not true at all and it’s not even what’s being reflected in current continuity. There’s a reason marvels attempts to rehabilitate these characters makes them brown skinned poc, it’s because 1 they’re literally not white, and 2 it’s a direct response to this very damaging history of whitewashing, which gets so bad to the point they just hire white people to play them and remove everything about their heritage and marginalisation from their characters.
