Watch, a whole server's gonna riot when a Police D.Va kills a Lucio.

"Grow the fuck up" says the kid who has 15 criteria on who is 'allowed' to follow their blog on a public website and REEEEEs over other people pretending to be the character they're pretending to be
My favorite BYFs are the ones where they don't want people with "just depression or anxiety" following them, because people with depression and/or anxiety are weak ass normies who can't understand the plight of poor teenagers with six different personality disorders, psychosis, and autism.
 
Why do they always grab foreign non-american characters to promote their BLM crap? First Eponine, then D.Va...Why is it always characters that are as far away from african americans as possible?

Eponine isn't even a minority, she's just a dirt-poor girl living in Paris in the mid 1800s- and a character from classic literature.
And YES. This is the case in the shitty musical too.
 
Yeah but for some reason tumblr's gotten this weird idea into their heads that she's a strong black/Womyn of color and fights up the patriarchy and that this was true in the book and it was all "whitewashed" in the musical and blah blah.

Now I haven't read that much of the book ( help me @Infidel), but I reaaaally doubt Eponine was created as a proto Black Widow femme fatale with dark skin the way tumblr envisions her.

I believe one of the first cast members for the musical who played her was Asian? Maybe black or something, so like with the Harry Potter play this means that she was a POC all along!

No, no she wasn't. She was white in the book as well.

There's legit nothing more to it than what I said: Eponine is a girl who grew up in poverty, she's covered in dirt and grime and gets her heart broken by a young man she pretty much joined the little rebel group depicted in Les Misérables for. Feminist icon right there, throwing herself into the wolf's den for a rich cishet white male who friendzones her for a much prettier girl.
The book is set in Paris during the June Rebellion of 1832 (and not the French Revolution like so many of these tards believe). It was written by Victor Hugo and published in 1862.

You guys wanna guess how many French novelists cared about proud queer women of color and BLM in 1862?
 
Why do they always insert black people into european stories?
Dont they have their own culture?

Of course they do! In fact, all "culture" that white people have was stolen from them! That's why, if you don't insert that all-important black person into the story, it's cultural appropriation and therefore naughty.

Never mind the actual black people who actually shaped modern culture.
 

I was seriously going to bring up Dumas. But no, they probably don't like Dumas, since he wrote about cishet white men. If all four of the Three Musketeers were different ethnicities, different sexualities, and different rainbow haircolors, they might like it more.

Hell, I'd pitch that, if I thought tumblr actually supported fictional works outside of fanart, shipping, and kin.
