@pequidosudeste It probably looks like the cause your Twitter feed knows your more interested in gl than bl so it's showing you the stuff more related to the girls
Now that a lot of actors are apologizing: dont reduce this to a “polemic” or say they shouldnt apologize
Even if they mind no harm, is a serious topic, awereness is important
Part of loving some1 is wanting them to learn and grow up. You harm them MORE by hiding their mistakes
@frrw4ve Well they are all apologizing for doing the same thing they are only so many ways you can write an a formal apology especially of Twitter were words count are limited
I sincerely apologize for using the hand signal for help without sufficient thought or a proper understanding of its meaning and significance.
After receiving guidance and listening to feedback from various parties, I have come to realize that this hand signal carries profound significance for individuals who are genuinely in situations where they need help. Using it without fully considering its context and the potential impact of my actions may have caused misunderstanding and discomfort, and may have diminished the importance of a signal intended to help those experiencing violence or facing dangerous situations.
I deeply regret my mistake and sincerely accept all comments and constructive criticism with respect. This incident has become an important lesson for me, making me realize the responsibility that comes with using hand signals and other forms of communication. Going forward, I will make every effort to better understand the meaning and significance of any symbol or form of communication before using it.
To everyone who has been affected or felt uncomfortable because of this incident, I offer my sincerest apologies. I am committed to learning from this experience, improving myself, and ensuring that a similar mistake will not happen again in the future.🙏🏻🤍 #FayePeraya
i understand that purpose of the hand signals and im very thankful to whoever started it.
but what irks me is that asians are always expected to know everything about what the west has, but they don’t have the same equal expectation that the westerners should follow anything that asians start/stand up for.
this is just a rant of how i feel in case anyone wants to jump on me lol maybe it’s the trauma of being colonized by white ppl
can people call out actors for being caught doing bigot stuff without turning it into a company thing bc some people will SUCK no matter what company they’re under oh my god you’re so fucking annoying
O Justin é a ponta do iceberg. Ele foi cooptado pelo algoritmo igual centenas de outros adolescentes por aí, que entram numa bolha onde ódio vira "opinião" e crime vira "meme". Não é um caso isolado, é sintoma de um sistema que lucra com a radicalização de jovens. O que ele+

I slept for two hours and woke up to a blackface case. Poom appeared on a livestream with his face painted black and wearing a wig. He was portraying a character from Thai culture.
Is this acceptable? No, it's problematic. But if you stop right there, your analysis is superficial.
Blackface is not just makeup. It's a practice that originates from minstrel shows, where white people painted their faces black to turn Black people into a caricature. This built stereotypes and perpetuates racism to this day.
In Brazil, this connects directly with slavery, marginalization, and structural racial inequality. However, Thailand does not have this history. It was never colonized in the same way; it didn't have a racial slave system like ours. This is where many people get it wrong.
This doesn't mean they are completely innocent over there. Colorism exists, skin tone hierarchy exists, representation issues exist... we know that well, right? It's just that it stems from a different context.
Now, the question that really matters isn't whether Poom made a mistake. Because that's obvious. The question is: why is your reaction never consistent?
When Sea was involved in something similar, there wasn't this level of outrage, was there? People were harassing me in my DMs, sending messages saying I didn't know what I was talking about, that I didn't know the culture, that it wasn't racism...
This reveals something much more serious than the actor's mistake. You don't operate on principle. You operate out of convenience.
Racism is not about your intention; it's about structure, context, and impact. But it's also not a tool for you to use selectively to attack those you dislike and ignore those you protect.
If your outrage depends on who makes the mistake, that isn't racial awareness... that's fandom. And if you didn't understand what I just said, because that possibility exists, you don't care about racism. You don't give a damn about racism.
In the end, you just want to use racial issues to attack those you hate. What is being discussed is not racism. What is being discussed is how much you want to attack the actor you dislike or how much you want to fuel a fandom war.
In the end, the topic isn't even about racism. It's just for you to have a reason to attack people. Because if you truly cared about racial issues, you would educate yourselves so you wouldn't be talking nonsense on the internet.
