THIS
Certain people definitely say it to be condescending too, itās the āIām better than you because I have a home country and you donātā attitude
Which is why the diaspora wars will always disgust me and this usually being the main insult is lower than low

Okay so ok thereās the whole demons speaking every language automatically so you canāt insult them in like Spanish or anything BUT I only see white languages present would they understand like French creole or know the differences between Trinidadian patois and Jamaican patois?š or would they be completely stumped bc I really doubt satan would understand what my grandma is saying and even then a heavy accent? Yeah no google translate aināt saving themš
#Solomon is Jamaican for this reason only#my fav white man#and heās now my mortal enemy on principal#šsorry king I canāt betray my people like that#if youāre Trinidadian you will understand#obey me x reader#omswd x reader#obey me shall we date#obey me x black reader#Lucifer x black reader#diavolo obey me#mammon obey me#ik dia and mams might understand but culturally they are stumped#Simeon can be apart if the cool kids club as a treat#mayhaps Luke bc a little white baby yelling in patois would he hilarious especially in the kitchen#barbatos understands tone and body language so heās fine most of the time#x black reader#obey me x mc#demon brothers

So I watched the Migration movie today and I was enjoying it up until I met this Jamaican bird named Delroy.
The issue isnāt that heās Jamaican, bc Iām Jamaican American and I love to see representation of my culture. But it was the voice actor that completly ruined the rest of the movie for me.
His accent was off. And for those of you who donāt know Patois and the Jamaican accent in general, it may be hard even realize, but it sucked.
My issue is that they casted an American who did it. Not even a Jamaican American who was raised with Jamaican family. Iām sure there are so many Jamaican actors and actresses that could have embodied the role so much better.
I donāt only want to see proper POC representation in live actions. I want it in animation too. And that includes language, dialects, and accents.
#migration 2023 movie#if a character has a soecific accent letās hire people who have those accents#i hate to burst some bubbles but dialect coaches arent always gonna help you nail an accent#im sick of casing directors hiring from the same boring tired ass pool of hollywood actors#they should have just hired a jamaican to do the part#this is funnily a similar reason why A LOT of Jamaicanās hated the One Love Bob Marley movie#and even worse bc it was produced by his son#they had plenty of ppl on the island that could have played the parts of all the Jamaicansā¦#but searched and hired from everywhere but Jamaicaā¦#iād rather you just laugh in my face insteadš

"Daemon suffered for ten years yearning to be at Rhaenyraās side again"
Caribbean men would ruin y'alls lives.
I assure you he wasn't crying tears of sadness when conceiving his three kids.
All he does is perpetuate arbitrary cycles of inadequacy for the women in his lives to fall victim to. I don't think we've seen him love a woman unconditionally.
#house of the dragon#hotd#a song of ice and fire#daemon targaryen#anti daemon targaryen#laena targaryen#laena velaryon#lady laena#daemon x laena#no hate to the Daemyra girls but this is crazy#all men do is lie#all daemon does is hurt people#one caribbean man would end y'all#destroy your peace and your skin barrier#Daemon is basically a Jamaican and y'all are victims of his tomfoolery#his ass was just not getting his way with her#the same thing with Rhea and Rhaenyra#thankfully Laena had Corlys as an example
