being a black artist is tough because you'll slowly notice a lot of people and artists tend to have a Eurocentric lean towards their characters or the art they draw.

the same blue eyed light haired fair skinned OCS and characters over n over again. when they do draw black characters it's either a commission, they do it poorly (whitewashing), or absolutely refuses to draw us or learn.

there's so much antiblackness everywhere. it's frustrating.

Actually I find this really funny so let's break this down

Which of the Guardians of Light does Lea actually know going into the final battle?

Sora Course he knows Sora. Everyone in the organization knew Sora. Keyblade's chosen, major piece of the organization's plans. They developed quite a rapport through the events of CoM, plus on top of that all of Roxas and Xions' personal ties to him. Completely in the loop on who this guy is.

Kairi Fellow trainee in Merlin's Funny Timespace Distortion. Strongly implied they had several conversations and got to some level of friendship. Before that, he kidnapped her. Definitely acquaintances at the very least.

Donald & Goofy Sora's funny little guys that went with him through castle oblivion. He's spoken to them a handful of times. Maybe not directly, but you know. They're around. Probably unclear on the details of why they're here, but Lea doesn't sweat the small stuff.

Michael Mouse First of all, he's a semi public figure who interacted regularly with the king of Radiant Garden, so we cannot discount the possibility that Lea saw him just. Around. When he was a kid. Don't think they ever interacted through the events of CoM or Kh2, but at least might have had one conversation while they were preparing to save Sora from being norted.

Riku I would argue there's strong evidence Lea has no idea who the hell Riku is. Yes, Riku let him and Namine go in Kh2, but Lea certainly has no idea who that guy was. He was wearing a hood! Also was wearing Ansem's face! They don't talk in DDD because Riku was too eyes on the prize to particularly care about this random guy dropping in during a fight. Lea having any understanding of who Riku is I think hinges entirely on if he poked his nose into Vexen's work on the replica program.

Ventus Small teenager he had one (1) conversation with over a decade ago with a face identical to one of Lea's best friends. He asks for literally anyone to fill him in on why this is the case, or why this kid seems to have not aged a day in twelve years. No one does.

Aqua Random woman. Complete 0 idea who this person is. He might have heard someone refer to her using the title "Master" and that's all he's got to go on.

Terra Even less context than Aqua. They set out to kick Xehanort's ass with nine people in their party, split up, and then when they come back together, they have ten. No one comments on this. Said tenth person has the exact face of Lea's old evil boss. Please take a minute and imagine the sheer level of 'what the fuck' that must have been running through Lea's mind in that moment.

"the sex is binary, it's biological reality"

and then you need to enforce it's reality by mutilating infants' bodies without their knowledge and consent with mostly cosmetic goals*

and then you need to enforce it's reality by having gender mark in every possible document

and then you need to change this mark back and forth if the intersex person "falls away" of their assignment too much and it's more convenient to push them in other box

and then you need to enforce it reality by pushing childrens and adults on "treatments" of their intersex variations by fearmongering, coercion, and/or blatant lie (or without their knowledge at all)

and then you need to enforce it's reality by hiding their own medical history from intersex people

and then you need to enforce it's reality by artificially lowering the statistics of intersex variations' frequency

and then you need to enforce it's reality by selective abortions of intersex fetuses

and then you need to enforce it's reality by giving people no opt-out of it

and then you need to enforce it's reality by gatekeeping transition as much as possible

and then you need to enforce it's reality by refusing to add any way of opting-out a bit, like neutral gender marks, ban of unnecessary surgeries on infants and using active monitoring instead, etc.

if you need to ban back and forth to protect "reality," you aren't protecting reality. you're just trying to push people in your wrong narrative.

*some variations cause things that require immediate intervention, but 1) not all variations, only some; 2) immediate intervention should solve acute problem, and not focus on cosmetic part and tries to create binary-looking genitals
