[ID: Trigun Fanart Of The Core Four Sitting Together In A Cozy Room. Wolfwood Seems To Be Telling A Story

Keep up the great work, lads

Last post im making about this. this shit is tiring to see "aventurine isn't a real romani person, we dont know for sure if thats what hoyoverse intended! how could they have known that a well known slur is actually a slur? this is fiction, dont get upset by fiction. he ain't real a real person anyways, so what hoyo is doing doesn't hurt anyone. touch grass" yes, its a fictional story in hsr, and yes aventurine isn't a real person - no ones saying he is real or is actually romani (ive seen some claim that 2nd one but thats probs just their own headcanons, its not smth ive seen more then like 2 people admit to believing). but he is Clearly a Stand-in for such peoples. please actually read for once in your lives, and don't cherry pick/skim: the word itself Isn't fictional, the name of his planet/people is a literal irl slur against romani people, easy to find from a quick google search. and the genoside aventurine's people face is similar to the ones the romani went through. even if he "wasn't intended" to be a "1 to 1" rep for romani, you CAN'T deny that hoyo knew what they were doing. no way they didnt know the name they used as a slur when trying to find words for their oppressed/enslaved race with stuff like that. that info ain't hidden or some sort of new thing - its been going on and being recorded for a VERY long time. and even IF they weren't aware of that words' negative origins, they should still be held accountable. their an extremely rich company, and thus have all sorts of resources - we know they have internet access, not like any of the writers couldn't have fact checked. they just didn't want to, because they don't care. hoyoverse ain't gonna fuck you/praise you for defending them, companys don't care about or understand fandom/their customers. aventurine's story was written well, and hell - i even almost cried at some parts and had a lot of fun, but the usage of the slur and making it the most prominent word in that story arc/the most important part of avenrturines life even now that he's free (i.e.: sparkle using the slur at him casually without repercussions while she knew his past), was not good and isn't justifiable. y'all send death threats and drive random people off of the platform for minor stuff when they are just young and aspiring creators & thus of course make mistakes when making their own stories and accidentally making them parallel closely to irl history, but y'all are willing to excuse a well established company (who have a history of white-ifying poc cultures for "the aesthetic" and "good banner sales" with nations and characters and have publicly admitted it without shame), with many writers/developers who are full grown adults when they do the exact same thing - or even worse - with evidence to back up that they arent innocent uwu babies who "just didn't know any better"? give me a fucking break.

"they wouldn't make it 100% romani based cuz they are worried about getting info wrong" if they actually cared about that, they wouldn't have chosen a romani slur, or just any slur, as the primary name of his people/planet. "cherry picking" isn't an excuse. sumeru was nearly completely whiteified despite being based on poc cultures, with the only poc npcs being 1 blacksmith, all erimite enemies you have to KIll for missions, the story quest, and white character level up materals. they also only have 2 characters whos skintones aren't quarts, and one isn't even out yet/is quite late to the sumeru story as a whole. hell, they even very shamelessly lighten the skin of their dark characters in official art, even when theres no excusable "light source" to pin blame on. theres a reason why people are upset. it was something many poc fans picked up on rather fast as soon as that word showed up on screen. i know that 98% of the fanbase is white, probably all the people who will ever see this post are some sort of white (i know for a fact the only people ive seen make posts on this topic trying to defense the slur's usage in universe admited to be white at the top of their rants. legit a "im white, but-" nonstop.) but that doesn't mean anything if the majority is shortsighted and shitty. majoriy isn't always right. just cuz your white, thats no excuse to be ignorant and refuse to take 5 seconds to google search something in order to understand the context behind such social outcry. people who are defending shit like this make me shamed to be white (well, many things do that - but not the point here).

i know for a fact hoyoverse will never change this, its making them money and giving them attention - so why would they ?(any publicity is seen as "good" publicity by many businesses), and will probs keep doing stuff like this from other cultures. something i came to terms with, but just because ive accepted that reality - that doesn't mean im gonna be happy about it, or praise it like some supremacist dipshits are doing (luckily their few, but they still exist and that's an issue). im not gonna shame anyone who likes hoyo's games, as i myself am a fan of hsr and used to be super huge into genshin, but you shouldn't defend a money hungry corporation who will disregard you at every turn with no remorse.

One of my favourite parts about autistic people is how you can use other peoples' reflections of them like an echolocation bullshit detector. Like they personally do not need to do shit for this to work, they just passively emit their own autistic vibe that bounces off every surface around them, and you can assess another person's level of self-awareness by how they reflect it back.

"Autistic people do not understand social hierarchy" nope, they understand you're supposed to be an authority here, but they won't politely pretend to respect you if they think you're incompetent.

"Autistic people do not understand humour" nope, they just don't politely pretend to laugh to humour you, and you are simply not funny.

"Autistic people are rude" nope, they just don't think it's polite to lie to you, and don't care about trying to tell you what they think you want to hear instead of telling you what they think.

"Autistic people sometimes have emotional meltdowns for absolutely no reason" nope, you're just insufferable to be around and the person with the lowest tolerance of your shit is simply the canary in the coal mine who breaks first.

Holy shit.

its so sweet to me whenever a reconstruction of a neanderthal's face shows up on social media and people are like "oh they would have loved minecraft" "they would have loved weed brownies" it's so sweet. i hope that continues on to the next stage of human evolution. i want whoever comes next to dig me up, reconstruct my face, and for the girlbloggers of this far-flung civilization to go "duuuude she would have loved churfing back a freefing zarbee"
