Wow. Cool! I had a strong feeling he was. That makes him a thousand times scarier.
"That means Vivzie clearly is racist bc it's cultural appropriation."
Uuuuuuuugh!!
Girl, the wendigo HAS been a pop culture figure for years, if not decades. It is a fact it's not limited to Algonquian or First Nations anymore since ages. Vivzie is very, very, very, very, very very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very FAR from being the first to put a wendigo in a fictional work and far from being the last. Because it is a fucking POP CULTURE figure.
So how the fuck is it suddenly "appropriation"? And how the fuck can you call s/o racist with that one thing (Alastor being a wendigo)?
Also, that may not be the socialist or leftist usual line, (you may call me a fascist or a racist too if that makes you feel so good to be paranoid and see racism everywhere) but I think that "cultural appropriation" concept is pure bullshit:
Cultures, even very different cultures always have crossed paths, blended in and mixed with each other, learned and picked legends from each other. The way it happens isn't always right or just or even logical, it's just natural and human. It's how humans function! In North America and everywhere else in the world!
Or do you mean every people should stay away from their neighbor and never have any interaction with a people different from them? Or any interest in learning new things? If I had followed that mindset, I would be ignorant as fuck AND actually and fully racist. Because racism comes when you don't know shit about people different from you, does it not?
Rather, see that so-called "cultural appropriation" as a opportunity for non-Native American people to learn more about Native American cultures. Or is cultural diversity "cultural appropriation" too??
And bitch, if Vivziepop really was racist against Native Americans, do really think she would have used one of their most popular legends to create her most popular and charismatic villain? Also, if she had no idea what a wendigo is, I may have agreed with you, but she clearly knows what a wendigo is, she educated herself on the subject!
Unlike you, who NEVER educated yourself about her!
And I can't believe I've just explained all that while it's all fucking OBVIOUS and commonly known! How old are you? Five? (tho I bet there are five-years-olds who're more educated and thoughtful than you)
If you're a minor, you shouldn't even watch Hazbin Hotel in the first place.
as a European i find it hilarious whenever some racist American tries to defend their history of slavery by saying 'it happened 6 centuries ago get over it!' as if 600 years is some super long time period like bro
that was like, your great great grandfather or something
it's not as long ago as you seem to think it is
my family line is older than that like
sit down
shh
don't get all defensive
let people talk about the still prevalent effects of slavery, racism and how it all trickles down into the present day cuz it's very important and it's always been very important and will always be very important
So my boss (a 40 something, straight, loves mansplaining man) came into the office yesterday afternoon and started talking to me. And he was trying to explain to me that every war is based in economics, that racism doesn’t exist, and shit like that and wouldn’t even let me talk.
Now bear in mind, I am a 22 year old lesbian and JEWISH woman and he just says: “And look at world war 2, I mean I know the holocaust was terrible but if [the nazis] hadn’t done anything the tables would have turned. We we going towards a reverse holocaust” (translated from what he said in spanish obviously)
“a reverse holocaust”
“a reverse holocaust”
“a reverse holocaust”
“a reverse holocaust”
My boss told me that the dirty jews were planning to kill everyone because they supposedly had more money or some shit.
I tried to talk to him about it but he kept changing the topic and wouldn’t let me speak.
Oh my G-d, I can’t wait until I get the hell out of my internship and get my diploma.
ok the problem i have with the super social justice bloggers is, yes, it's fine to correct someone if they make an offensive comment!
but there are people out there who are being killed for their sexuality and gender and that's sort of a huge problem but god forbid someone makes a blonde joke and you get offended
