ninapedia's side blog @hipandhorrific - Tumblr Blog

7.20.23 EDIT - It’s jover after 8 years of torment i turned off reblogs, deleted all the replies and limited who can reply to it. i muted it ages ago but would still see notifs for it from time to time? anyways the racial coding post is finally dead. y’all can be annoying on someone else’s posts now.

if you reblog my racial coding post to correct me on hello kitty you owe me a dollar

and if you reply telling me italian isn’t a race or anything along those lines you owe me $5

if you reblog it to complain to me, a puerto rican person, about my use of latin@ you owe me $10

if you comment or reblog telling me i forgot someone you owe me $15, the number of racially coded characters is huge and i didn’t forget anything they were excluded because i either didn’t know about them or because i didn’t want to waste more time/effort on the post

if you tell me i’m over-reacting by calling people who can’t see coding racist, you owe me $20. The context of the post was directed toward a specific group of people in the monster high fandom nearly a decade ago. They were, indeed, behaving racistly. This wasn’t calling everyone who can’t see coding racist, this was directed at them. The post has been removed from it’s original context so that part does not hold up but i’m not bothering to edit it because it’s been proven thousands of time people don’t look at the edits.

if you reblog it to tell me i’m the actual racist for pointing out coding exist you owe me $50

the post is 5 years old and has over 50,000 notes on it. someone’s already said it before you and i’ve corrected portions of it. just shut up lol

I get in theory why people complain about het ships or whatever, I get wanting to watch queer media I really do, but I guess where y’all lose me is like. I saw some asshole on a post about Sinners complaining it was “hetslop”—this person was specifically doing so while also claiming Remmick was a queer character and thus they were justified in caring more about him than the Black protagonists. which is a whole other disgusting can of worms that has been well addressed by others at this point. but even in the absence of that part of the argument, like, no, i actually don’t think that a hunger for queer stories is an especially good excuse to deride and dismiss a piece of landmark Black filmmaking, especially as a non-Black person. I have a post that’s been going around encouraging folks to engage with more Native stories and characters, and I had someone come onto that post saying in the tags that they’d need these stories to be queer in order to care. and I just think that, you know, sucks! like obviously as a queer Native I also want to see more of those stories too. but idk how else to put it other than to say that Black people and people of color shouldn’t have to be like you in order for you to care about our narratives and experiences. and I think some of y’all are using this disdain for heterosexuality as a cover for your unexamined racial biases. it’s not okay to be racist to people just because those people happen to be straight, and you continue to be white before you are queer.

on an even more basic level than that, also, I simply just think some of y’all NEED to learn how to interact with media and storytelling without ships and fandom in mind. like if not being able to write fic about two men kissing is genuinely going to be a dealbreaker for you I think that’s actually something you need to work on within yourself because at that point I think you’re no longer really interacting with art and themes and narrative so much as just kind of playing with toys. which is, like, fine I guess. have fun. but it wouldn’t kill you to disengage from that from time to time. especially if would allow you to actually appreciate rich and deeply moving cultural stories from communities of color that you desperately need to learn how to see as human
