“They weren’t being racist! You’re being a sjw!”
“Nessa is free game! It’s not about color! You’re a snowflake!”
They drew Nessa as a fucking ape today. An ape. Not being racist, right? Not about her color? Okay.
I swear to god, the community is so toxic and disgusting. It’s always the folks with like, 3 followers on their account who seek out these tweets to continue to prove my point. Being an edge lord isn’t a personality trait. I can tell you don’t socialize irl, just 4chan or reddit.
Also, y’all make it TOO easy to block you. Please, continue to share your thoughts here on why you think that myself, a black woman, shouldn’t be mad about a black woman being depicted as an ape. Please, explain how somehow, black people are the wrong ones in this situation.

If no one complained about someone drawing a dark skinned character less dark than original, this never would have been an issue.
Who's the real racists here?

That was the first thing I saw on Twitter today and I kinda just stared for a while in shock.... and then the amount of people saying it was not a problem in response saddened me deeply.

It’s fucked up and the fact that anyone, ANYONE would see that and not think it’s a blatant act of racism “ironic” or not need a fucking education AT LEAST.
@RheaMorris_
That picture was absolutely shocking. What got me was the amount of comments defending it, and not seeing how racist it was. Absolutely appalling. To anyone who saw that and got hurt, I'm sorry.
@RheaMorris_
That picture is racist. Anyone defending it is racist. I don't get it. It's wrong. This shit should not be happening. Yet here we are.
These asshats need to lose jobs. That would bring it home.
I'm so sorry. Nessa is a beautiful character of color. I'm glad for her.

"it's bait", "the artist is a troll", "art is meant to provoke a reaction"
None of this makes it better - work like this isn't Dada or Banksy. It's as thought provoking as publicly taking a dump in a fountain.
