Hi, this is my Twitter. I do random geeky stufff and post writing from my blog too. Sometimes you may get memes. Other times, brain farts. It really do be like that.
This is why people don't want to create black characters, they will bitch that every single thing on earth needs to include black characters but then throw a temper tantrum if they aren't stereotypes of American black people. They will never be happy so just don't bother.
Brian Jacques explains why he does not have sympathetic villains in his Redwall series:
"When I was a boy, morality was taught in school and in church but I think that is no longer true to the extent that it used to be. I try to create very clear moral signposts of what is right and what is wrong. The children who read my books are generally at an age where they need to have things spelled out in 'black and white,' without ambiguity. I often tell my readers that my baddies are bad and my goodies are good. I won't have sympathetic baddies and schizophrenic goodies in my books."
Should more writers do this?

@thegothking I never understood Pan-Africanism, like MFer you can't get along with someone of a different tribe, let alone several countries off this has got to be a psyop😭
How to identify a grifter 101:
Direct hatred towards specific groups
Leave out nuance
Doom mongering
Foreign disruption
Your thoughts @thegothking? I'm not south African so I can't really confirm stats but im trying to get better at identifying grifters.
I wish Black South Africans were more angry towards the white minority, who constitute about 8% of the south african population yet own over 70% of privately held land, leaving many blacks to struggle in slams and abject poverty in their homeland than they are towards fellow Black Africans from other countries like Malawi, Zimbabwe, Nigeria etc!
