The entire fandom:

My brain at 3 am: Would Zeus fuck a Karen?

Me: Idfk man

Can someone answer my brain?

Many people on this new fandom have the audacity of demonizing Alma without even trying to look deeper into her story. Tell me, have any of you:

•Had your hometown burned to the ground and escaping within an inch of your life. Probably lost the rest of your family to the flames?

•Ran into the wild unknown for weeks while making sure your newborn triplets are all fed and healthy while constantly checking your surroundings and provisions, having little to no sleep?

•Had the love of your life stabbed to death in front of your eyes and being physically incapable of doing something, not only for the mere shock, but also to protect the lives of your children?

•Been saved by a miracle out of nowhere, and whoops! You, a newly widowed with 3 children, are now the chosen leader of a community of hundreds of terrified people?

•Had no option to give your beloved a proper funeral? Had no way to express your grief, pain or fear for the responsibility and image bestowed upon you can't allow any cracks? EVERY. SINGLE. THING. YOU. DO. is going to affect the people around you. You're the one that holds the magical candle. You have to be strong, for everyone, for the people, and for your offsprings

•Had no idea how to relate or help your magical 5yo, having no other guide but your gut instinct? Consider:

-One of your daughters can't feel negative emotions, otherwise someone will get struck by lightning. Better to teach her to repress feelings

-Your son seems to predict only bad things. Self-explanatory why people doesn't like him. Also, he strongly resembles your dead husband

-Your other daughter now has to wake up before the sun rises to make tons of healing food. There's no break, and you can't stop her from helping people. Why would the miracle give them gifts, if not for aid the community?

•Wrongly believe that your family's role in life, the only reason you were saved, was for helping others; and slowly accommodate and settle in that lifestyle. Silently burying your troubles behind a smile. Years start passing by, your daughters get married and you get grandchildren. The town gets bigger. Everyone has to work harder for things to go smooth

•Suddenly had one of your granddaughters turn up giftless. Why? What does this mean? The people are panicked, you're at lost of what to do. You can't move, just like that time many years ago. You ask your Brunito, the only sort of lead you have for an explanation, and he disappears, not even saying goodbye.

•Feel like you have to make up for it, like this is your mistake. You already lost your husband and son. You're not going to lose anyone else. You have to take control.

•No idea what to make of Mirabel. She made the candle flicker. Could she be a threat to the magic, to the family, to Encanto? It can't be, she's innocent, isn't she? But Luisa loses her gift. But the marriage proposal is ruined. But you finally get the explanation you asked ten years ago. But the cracks are appearing everywhere around Casita. But Isabella's plants invade town in middle of making amends with the Guzmán. But her perfect grandchild is a mess. Once again everything is chaos, and you're angry

No, you haven't, and it shows.

Does it justify the harsh treatment at Mirabel? No. Neither does it justify your attempts to dehumanise her.

I CANT BELIEVE THAT THE #ShutUpGringo2022 IS NOT TENDENCY HERE.

But at the same time im not surprised since this is a mostly gringo social media

SO HERES MY APPORT

First of all: Context.

Well, we all know the movie Encanto, I, personally, didn't see it but I know enough to love it, it does represent Colombian and Latino culture as well. Even in the smallest details yk. That why a lot of latinos are very happy with this movie, bc, you see, when the only representation you get is ridiculized parts of something as important as your culture, a movie like encanto is... Well, a charm.

You see, Latinoamérica is a big ass continent, with lot of history and culture. We have every bit of variety. Latam is builded in what a lot of natives created. A lot of countries respet and hold their cultures onto their natives. Even the ones where they are repressed, and trashed, their presence still strong, our roots and traditions will always go back to them. Then we have the African presence, Latam was the most big port of Enslaved Africans of the world, African culture has its presence on its own too. (Brasil is the country with most police brutality against black people on the world. But none of you will ever know that bc nobody cares about a third world country) European culture too, because of a lot of immigration, as well as Asian culture.

And YES a lot of us come from the pain of our ancestors. From the rape of colonizers, from the pain of immigration and starvation and shame, from the genocides and death.

But we carry that with us. With pride, bc we're here because of their strength. Latam is such a varied place, thanks to all of them. We have a bit of everywhere. And that's something to be PROUD.

We all are from different colours, we all have different traits, different ways of manifesting our beliefs, and tbh. Nobody could give more of a shit of that than us.

Ooh but there's somebody. And that's all the assholes who think they can talk for us. Offend themselves for us.

Listen: We do not care if someone drew a character of Encanto a light more white than it is. All our countries are headed to ruin WHY WE WOULD CARE.

Is not such a problem to us, so WHY do yall get offended anyways??

Yall not only want to apropiate our culture and traditions but our problems too?

And then get MAD bc we tell you to shut up?????

Look. Encanto is OURS. It represents our shared pain, our generational trauma and also the comfort of our family and home. Yall dont get to decide whether you hate a character or not, because yall don't understand that character like we do.

We cannot have NOTHING i swear. Bc you made a problem of it.

And its not the first time either.

Yall canceled a mexican rat bc it didn't fulfill your own image of a Mexican. While mexican little kids where DELIGHTED to see a part of themselves on tv.

I mean. Yeah, a lot of those characters are based on the most "prominents" aspects of our culture. That doesn't mean its bad???

In the Latinoamerican Spanish version of Sing there's an Argentinian rat. Who is greedy, annoying and sings Tango. AND I LOVE IT. And i know I'm not the only one bc... WHEN do I see anything that represents Argentina that doesn't have to do with our horrible economic crisis? And its A RAT WHO SINGS TANGO AND PLAY THE SAXOPHONE. UN TIPAZO.

What I want to say with this is; Yall dont get to say a WORD about us. You live in a first world country. With a privilege you can't deny even if you wanted.

Istg yall have this problem where you can't get your noses off of other minorities bussines.

And the worst of this is that you get to be the victim??

And calls us racist bc we discriminate your PRIVILEGE

Quick history lesson:

When USA was in war against Mexico, the soldiers, who wore green, used to be everywhere, and some Mexicans used to tell them to get out, on a hardly pronounced english "Green, go" Which derivated to "Gringo"

Gringo is not a Slur.

Is our way to kick you all out. Yeah, some people use the term affectionately, while others used it as a way to rechaze the term "american" As if having it on your country name where enough reason to call yourself after a whole continent. And take us with you when others continents mock you.

Gringo can't be a slur. Gringo is part of our history, is part of the damage yall have done to us. Endlessly.

Victimize yourself if you must. Forget all the shit your centric county has trow to all of us. But we wont forget.

Yall can hide on your social justice hashtags all you want. We know the kind of shit you are.

En fin

On a lighter note: Isn't beautiful and a bit funny the fact we are ALWAYS fighting for something; Territory, culture, food, war, inmigration, politics, traditions. That Arepa is Venezuelan, not colombia, that Messi is better than Pele, than Gardel is Paraguayan not Argentinian (mentira) that September is Chile's not mexico's, that Bolivia and its sea.

But we unite only to support each others on our emergencies and to fight Gringos. Is beautiful, really. Lets never change.

Latinos unidos jamás serán vencidos 🤝

Edit: I realize now that is very important to clear the Latinx Thing; This post is not abt it, some latinos dislike it while others don't, I don't really mind it, I guess the problem resides that is originated on USA, bc on Latam we have the "Latines" variation, but idk, I put the memes there bc they where the only ones I could find abt the whole situation xd

Proving a point to my boyfriend.
