Random Tumblr posts

I dealt with someone like this before. The way they acted, you'd think the 50's killed their dog or some shit. When I pointed out that the 50's was the height of the Civil Rights movement, she kind of self-destructed.

Like...do they not get that there's more to a decade than a type of dessert and segregation? The dresses, the cars, retrofuturism, the early beginnings of sci-fi and exploitation cinema, the music, giving little kids all kinds of dangerous shit and calling it "toys"... It was a legit interesting time period, and they need to chill the fuck out about it.

Half the time when I see people calling for the return of a decade, they usually just mean they want the culture back.

So most of these people probably would just like to have the rock 'n' roll and B-movies without the segregation and stifling conformity.

Personally I just want people to stop dressing like shit tbh- Not saying there weren't weird trends in the 50s but they weren't as widespread

OP agrees that 'pee your pants' is suicide baiting and thinks people who believe ace people don't exist is just as bad as gay people being discriminated against. 100% recommend looking through OPs blog.

We get it man, you like thirsting after dark folks since they're all the same and you can earn brownie points that way, but uh, could you not do it at the expense of the other minority characters that make up a quarter of the roster?

Ok but: Widowmaker is a white woman. Like yeah she's blue rn but she's caucasian no matter how you wanna look at it, buddy.
 
The only dark skinned characters are lucio and doomfist. One good one evil. Ends there
:autism: You could say Orisa counts too because she is coded black. /:autism:

Anyways I'm suprised this is the only one I've seen. I was expecting more 'blizzard is racist because doomfist is black and a bad guy :c'
 
A moment of autism, if you please.

Don't forget Roadhog (Maori), Genji and Hanzo (Japanese), Mei (Chinese), Zenyatta (basically Nepalese) and D.va (Korean). Then again, most of the guys I listed are Schrodinger's POC; they're only minorities whenever it matters.

Supposedly Reaper's skin is plain white now from whatever horrible medical incident also allows him become a black mist by decomposing himself.

And that's a whole different can of worms for tumblr.

Checked back and D3dans counts McCree as a dark skinned poc.... Darker than the asian characters in the game
Not sure wtf race people headcanon McCree as but people get into fights about it
p_wkKZ--.jpg

But to D3dans he is more POC than actual asian characters.

tfw you're trying not to sound racist but you don't count asians as real poc

Irony since McCree is a dark-toned white guy (about tan or light olive in skin color) and has an obvious white cowboy accent ala John Marston of RDR.

Besides, "PoC" is a dumb term in general. It's a few edits away from "colored people," an obviously offensive term.

Roadhog isn't confirmed Maori, though many things point to him being at least half Maori, since his last name, Rutledge, is probably the most Anglo name one could imagine for a new-zealander.

:autism: I mean I personally buy into him being half Maori half white but y'know, mixed race people don't real according to tumblr ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

They like thinking McCree's TOTALLY DEFINITELY FOR SURE Mexican because of vaquero culture, without regarding that only a third of cowboys back in the day were actually Mexican.

Though that brings to mind how much they like citing Reaper as afro-latino...even though his name, skins, and pre-mortem skin tone point to him being purely Mexican.

You are absolutely right, sir. However, we're talking black and brown PoCs, the only REAL PoCs. Every good black tumblrette knows all the asians "sucky sucky white man's peepee 5 dolla."

Ah yes, those bagpipe playing, kilt-wearing Mexican McCrees I've heard so much about. Is it too hard to think he might be a man of Scottish descent with a half-mexican grandma? Everyone's got to be 100% one thing, though.
