#why this fandom has a particular obsession with making alfred the (good) dad of his colonial and imperial possessions (like liberia)#is smth i'll never understand#hws america#hws north korea#// disk horse#hetalia#hws south korea#LIKE THERE'S SO MUCH I COULD WRITE ABOUT THIS HOW IT PLAYS INTO NARRATIVES OF WHITE SAVIORISM AND THE IMAGERY OF AMERICA NEEDING TO “GUIDE”#THE “YOUNGER” “LESSER” NATIONS OF THE WORLD WHO ARE SO OFTEN CONVENIENTLY POC HMMMM AND BASICALLY DOES A MISS SAIGON RETELLING AS WELL#THE BELIEF THAT TODAYS SK HAS NO HISTORY OR CULTURE W/O THAT AMERICAN INTERVENTION AND OTHER COUNTRIES ARE ALLOWED TO MODERNIZE AND REMAIN#LIKE IT'S NOT CUTE?? ITS NOT ADORABLE OR FLUFFY THAT IS LITERALLY PRO-AMERICAN IMPERIALIST PROPGANDA#also nk being a shitty mom who's paranoid of sk replacing her is 1) the demonization of asian moms as irrational and inhumane and in need#of white intervention and 2) justification of the usa's shitty alienation of nk as a pariah state#he's a different oriental but edward said is rolling in his grave rn
