It actually does. Seeing people say the stupidest shit doesn't always affect me but seeing so many other people agree makes me feel like ill always be hated for being asian
the thing we can all do to make racists stop is [parody] with [satire] [in minecraft]
:heart-sickle:
for real tho, things making you feel bad about yourself means its time to take a break, have some sort of hot beverage, snuggle up somewheres and read something that was written by someone cool and good instead.
listen, if harry potter is a comforting nostalgia read for you, have at.
as long as you can view the work your reading as separate from the author, its a pretty innocuous kids series. and if you ignore the epilogue, you can even pretend the protag-gang went on the affect necessary material changes rather than just murdering magic-hitler and calling it a day
its more antisemetic dogwhistling than outright antisemitism. anyone unfamiliar with the tropes wouldnt read the.. goblins? gnomes? i forget. as being coded jewish stereotypes.
i didnt assume it was a good-faith post, i just dont see a reason to knock anyone for wanting to read something they enjoyed as a kid when they need some warm fuzzy feelings.
plus its a good joke and deserves some kind of response.
in conclusion: sink terf island :transshork-happy:
Stuff like this makes me feel so bad about myself :( like I know there's nothing I can do (other than die) to make racists stop but fuck I'm sensitive
If it makes you feel better i bullied him pretty hard.

Like Harry Potter for example.

Isn't there some pretty shitty anti-semitism in there?

i certainly didnt when i was seven
Lol same, in retrospect though
yeah for sure, in retrospect its definitely got some uhhh problematic depictions.
but most kids books do tbh, because they reduce things into simplistic terms rather than presenting complex analysis. soo... meh.
Idk that it's so much about reduction as reflecting the author's biases and culture, unconscious or otherwise
fair, the reduction is a lens that magnifies the biases and cultural viewpoints of the author
I didn't expect an actual response to my trolling, but I appreciate the thought you gave to me assuming I had posted in good faith.
