I think Thomas Connor being white makes sense era wise. Since most black people in the 20s-30s didn’t have as much opportunity when it came to jobs and businesses, if Tom was black while being the head of Gent wouldn’t really be seen as believable given the time period. Not to mention since Tom and Allison are canonically married, back then during this time period, a POC marrying someone that’s white was seen as wrong socially and morally so it would make more sense for Tom to be white. If I offended anyone saying this then I’m tremendously sorry

Why are you, on the one day I am off this week, coming into my ask box to tell me this shit take?

The dev team have shown that they don't care about historical accuracy in any shape or form; they've only cared enough about the world to make sure that they don't get a cease and desist letter from 2K over their "totally not Bioshock with a filter" game.

But if you wanna pull the "historically accurate" card on Thomas Conner's situation, lemme just point out that the Fictional Joey Drew Studios is located in the general New York area, and unless the dev team decides to retcon it to the middle of butt-fuck nowhere, the New York area is very diverse, and frankly a company doing illegal stuff like GENT is clearly doing, they're going to be picking the easiest people to trap them in their company and keep them forever be it with benefits or blackmail. And also come on, plenty of people of variety of backgrounds had businesses since the beginning of time.

Also New York had no laws passed banning Interracial Marriage so it would only be a social pressure for Allison, and given the fact she decided to work for (and apparently became friends enough with him to invite him to her wedding) Joey "Temu Disney" Drew in an era that had all sorts of other studios in New York, let alone other places, I don't think Allison cared about societal pressures. And that's of course assuming that she's white. (Remember, despite the evidence to the contrary, "the books aren't canon" per Meatly and Allison only exists as the Angel in game)

Look, I am not saying that the Headcanon of Thomas Conner being white is invalid and someone is awful for having it. What I am saying is justifying it solely with "it make sense era wise" or "it's more believable" is bullshit.

This is a fictional story with a revolving door of what is and isn't canon involving a bitch ass baby man (derogatory) having a vent fanfic because he's dealing with the consequences of his actions and he made multiple ink babies that somehow have sentience. You can do whatever you want with it.
