Okay, well, the world isn't just about you and your perspective. You don't take it seriously, others find great joy in seeing more black representation. I'm white, I couldn't really care less, but if good games are being made I am having a great time regardless.
Clearly not...since in another comment you said you (and your parents) took their conversations very seriously.
Should’ve said a deaf ear. I think it’s serious in a sense to constantly talk about being oppressed when it’s objectively false. It makes me sad but I don’t take it seriously. It annoys my parents because they grew up in the Jim Crow south and find it annoying to hear people act like the year is 1940.
People aren't acting like it's currently 1940, but you can't deny that, even in this very subreddit, there's a significant culture of people who actively want 1940 to come back. I think your friends and relatives might be worried about that sort of thing.
Sure. There are racist whites. I’ve been in this group since late 2020. Still you are rushing to defend any black person no matter what. . It’s not 1940 and they aren’t being oppressed. I’m sorry but they aren’t experiencing stuff my great grandparents did. I am certainly not. So I don’t act like it. So you’ll just defend any black person no matter what. Forgive me if I don’t take seriously the whining of a 25 year old who tells me that white ppl are holding him down. As a kid I knew the Klan existed but didn’t fear them. Definitely wasn’t trying to seek them out either
How did oppression come up in this convo anyway? You brought it up. Is anyone talking about nonwhite characters being a form of oppression? Or is that you using hyperbole again?
Yes. I’m aware I’m just one perspective in a universe full of them
Well I was born in 80 and saw blacks on tv but I guess I never felt I couldn’t survive without seeing a black person on tv since I could watch something with black ppl if that was so important. My grandparents rarely saw any so I could see in there day how that was a big deal. Not so much a younger person today since you can find black ppl all over media. I mean if that’s what makes you happy more power to you. I guess I should’ve made it clear that people are free to their preferences. I just personally feel the “being seen” stuff is nonsense coming from ppl half my age
Nobody is feeling like they can't survive, so we don't need to worry about that.
Then you haven’t met my cousin. Had another cousin who was so “tired of all the racism” in the U.S. that he moved to Africa. Granted he had lived in majority black areas all his life but I was glad for him since he was always complaining. But I’d say most don’t feel that way.
Your cousin said they couldn't survive without seeing a black person on tv? Those were their words? Or were they "basically" saying that?
