i saw a tweet saying asian artists don't like/block you when you reply to their art but that has just not been my experience? they often reply being thankful...
@stalkerwhostalk yeah, i don't think you should tell others how to act towards such a varied group of people based on such an interaction. i'm sure there are very many japanese, chinese, korean, vietnamese, indonesian, etc artists who would love kind replies to their art
@Truncatten this is what i thought as well. and you have to be very careful when you mention something is "eastern/asian" culture in the first place if you are not from there (same applies to other cultures). it sounded like the person just decided this "rule" to be the case on a whim
@rabbitmeateater this is what i'm thinking too LOL. specially on the second point, i thought it was already common knowledge that those kinds of jokes don't necessarily translate well across cultures or language barriers. tbh even to other english speakers who aren't As Online they might not
also saw that they don't like it when you qrt art which i think is an universal twitter artist thing really. if anything, i see more japanese artists qrting their mutuals art (and them replying in turn) than any other demographic
