i feel the need to point out every comic including al ghuls does include racism because the characters themselves are racist caricatures based on streotypes of dehumanization fetishization and vilification of arab and chinese people but that will NEVER excuse the continued harm +
i don't understand how people defend morrison's writing of talia with "talia always had racist writing". it doesn't mean the writers need to double down on the racism or, like morrison did, completely change a character's core personality to demonize them.
ai in fanfiction isn’t just annoying but it’s also actively killing the planet and stealing our water. but sure go ahead and generate crack fics for fun. dni with me if you’re okay with generative ai genuinely
The fight in the Batcave in Knightfall...you should be explored far more...the dynamic between Tim and JPV....JPV's redemption, like him trying so hard to get the cure back to Gotham in Contagion...
Okay so when Knightfall drops do we think we can convince people to start talking about JPV and Tim instead of Titans Tower and "Replacement" and all that
or use that as a loophole to still depict aroace chars as allo for shipping reasons (even when they're canonically sex-repulsed), when like, even for aroaces that do engage in rom/sex relationships the dynamic is NOT EVEN A BIT like with allo pairings
Nothing pmo more than when I saw I want more asexual & aromantic rep where they’re sex/romance repulsed & get hit with “but that’s not the whole experience!!” from a buncha allos like stfu YOU DON’T EVEN REP ASPEC PPL IN RELATIONSHIPS ACCURATELY ANYWAY. YOU MAKE IT ALLONORMATIVE.
as the announcement says, it’s important we continue to uplift black creators and black-led comics at dc. even if the boycott is over, continue to support and talk about those backs and demand better from dc.
Happy Pride Month to Connor Hawke and a reminder that the A in LGBTQIA+ doesn't stand for Ally, but can stand for multiple things such as asexuality, agender or aromantic 🤍
