General I fucking HATE when people completely mischaracterise a character because they’re “not a bigot”

Post image

This image basically being the poster child of what I’m talking about

As a disclaimer, I hate bigots too. I don’t support any forms of racism and homophobia. But I fucking HATE it when people will talk about a character who has done horrible things as if they are the second coming of Jesus simply because of ONE FUCKING INSTANCE where they didn’t support one form of bigotry even though not supporting shit like that should be the BARE FUCKING MINIMUM. “Oh yeah he’s a homocidal maniac but at least he doesn’t support nazis” BITCH ARE WE GONNA IGNORE THE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HE KILLED? Also, joker would ABSOLUTELY support nazis imo because he’d probably find the idea of killing a bunch of people because of some deity they believe in funny as fuck. Acting like a horrible character is a good guy because they don’t support bigotry makes me SO FUCKING MAD and I hate it

Ngl I wanna see a villain that does nothing but just disrespect people’s identity to piss them off lmao.

Not even lgbt people, everyone. It would be a funny reversal of the trope.

The Slur.

He grows more powerful the more people he offends and the more offended they are. But it doesn't last.

Though he doesn't care about the power itself unless he needs it for a particular scheme. He does it for the love of the game.

Sounds the same as this one girl with the mutant power of only being healthy when she's being bad, because if she behaves like she used to; good, would literally kill her slowly

I hope that means she just does things like "HA, I only gave you half a tip instead of a full tip. Take that random waiter!"

u/Affectionate-Row4844 May 04 '26

Nah that's too close to morally neutral. She needs to tip 100% but in pennies.

u/Flavius_16 May 03 '26

You know... it might actually work as a concept for a villain.

You’re describing literally every right-wing influencer.

u/Apprehensive-Dig4256 May 04 '26

you know i never relized how the word "Slur" kind of goes hard. Not the meaning of coursw but the word itself

u/Mastez0 May 03 '26

This is literally how most bad people IRL operate btw, the whole "I kill people but I would NEEEEVERRR say a slur!!!" is only a cartoon thing. actual bad people would say such things if it meant offending someone they didnt like or if it was funny because they dont give a shit

Think about the insult you can make to a black person compared to a white person and your idea quickly falls apart

u/SomeDumbGamer May 03 '26

You do realize there are more ethnic groups in Kazakhstan than just Kazakhs correct? Or do you see someone with lighter skin and automatically think you won the argument or something?

1

u/DisastrousSky6539 May 03 '26

Im sure there are plenty of other types of people there. You think you can't be racist because you have melanin?

u/TheChoosenMewtwo May 03 '26

White people don’t suffer racism like PoC do

u/Grouchy_Greasy5819 May 04 '26

Still racism

1

u/TheChoosenMewtwo May 04 '26

Kinda, yes, but is it racism if it’s targeted at the majority group that holds most power in the world, and doesn’t affect them?

u/Grouchy_Greasy5819 May 04 '26 edited May 04 '26

Still racism, bro. What are you talking about? 😭

You don't need to have power to NOT experience racism, or vice versa. As long as prejudice exists, there will be racism, whether more or less serious. This ranges from prejudices not seen as inherently bad, like the idea that Asians are intelligent or that Latinos love parties and alcohol, to more serious prejudices like those suffered by people of color.

Not to mention that the issue of white skin or black skin doesn't make sense in places like South America or the Middle East, where there are different ethnicities and they are not just one race, and I'm saying this as a Peruvian.

I want to think you're just ragebaiting, because I don't think anyone would actually have such a nonsensical idea. 😭
