There's this recurring theme of people wanting to erase black people or their work from things because it would "ruin" the thing in question
"Black people shouldn't be in anime because it's an escape from reality and having them ruins that"
"Rap ruins otherwise good music"

"having black characters in game set in X time period ruins the atmosphere" even though the game in question is a fantasy game with catgirls or some shit

Some weirdo was spamming my notifications calling me a racist for not liking the fact that some people think black people shouldn't be in anime cause it's "an escape from reality" so I'm muting this now

Nobody fucking said that
Rap is primarily made by black people
And every instance of people removing rapping from a song has a rapper that's black at least from what I've seen
And white rappers don't get nearly as much disrespect and often get seen as "one of the good ones"

this is honestly such a victim mindset to live under, just bc somebody maybe doesn’t like rap or the rap verses in that song doesn’t mean they’re racist. until i see actual proof this person MIGHT be racist other than they don’t like rap i’m not assuming anything

Honest question: why is not liking rap racist? I fully get the other examples but not that one

there's a version of the most famous tengen toppa gurren laggan song without the rap part but i think EVERYONE in the fanbase knows the rap part is godlike (like i don't know anyone who doesn't like it)
i understand your point completely but idk if it's really that simple...
