I know that you talk about antiblackness amongst Asians, but can we step back for a moment and talk about antiblackness amongst Latinos because holy shit

I know that there’s Afrolatinos, but people act like their existence disproves antiblackness amongst Latinos.
A couple of weeks ago a Mexican classmate dropped the n-word and justified using it because he was Mexican. I hate it here so much.
They’re holding hands and running through a field of colorful flowers when it comes to their levels of antiblackness and it’s not even funny. Sm of them love saying nigga and then when confronted about why they chose to use the word, all that they say is that “they’re Mexican,” or whatever, just like you said, and would be dead serious. Almost smugly. As if being a poc absolves them somehow and it’s just very sad.

On the one hand I don’t think story telling should be sacrificed in favour of fan service and the like but on the other hand I engage in these stories and with characters who I come to love and of which help pull me away from the reality that is our less than exciting world in which I can see myself or my values in these characters that mean far more than just being some actor on a screen and in fact helped me through the moments in my life where I needed them the most and watching them die for wow factor or some shitty plot takes 10 years off my lifespan

maybe i’m just too much of a pessimist for my own good but legit nowadays i can’t feel excited whenever a new thing is introduced to the game (be it a pack, a major update, whatever) cause my first reaction is wondering how EA is gonna mess it up, how much drama and discourse will result from it, and how everyone will be disappointed and complaining it’s not what they wanted or that it’s not like in ts2/ts3.
that or maybe im sliding into depression again.
