Racism in the sims community is getting out of hand and I’m TIRED.
The racism in the sims community is disgusting, and why I stopped engaging in sims discourses in the first place. The constant attacking of blk creators, the micro-agressive comments every time EA tries to be inclusive- such as when they added blk hairstyles, or made the main family of growing together blk- are just disgusting. I’m tired of people taking every chance they can to be racist and disgusting to blk simmers, and then ppl justifying it “bc its just pixels”.
News flash: Yes, they are just pixels, but the racist comment and micro-agressions are REAL LIFE. Saying things like “Make the sim’s nose smaller bc nobody wants an ugly nose that isn’t the beauty standard” or “I changed this sim’s blk features bc they’re ugly” or even watching a video of hairstyles being rated and saying “oh i don’t know the only blk hairstyle on the list just doesn’t sit right with me its so weird” is racist! Just bc you’re talking ab a sim doesn’t mean those biases aren’t based off of real life prejudices, and people who look like those sims are upset and hurt at those comments.
I’m so tired of getting pushed to the side and bullied by white creators, then being told its okay bc they’re just being racist to the sims. It’s NOT okay, and idc how many of you want to flood my DMs after this post, you’ll get paid in dust.
