animal jam is great as long as you dont find out about the racism
#guess who found out about the racism#tbf idk why it took me so long. genuinely i thought ppl were just unaware#as opposed to being culturally appropriative knowingly & simply not caring#i know its just a video game but doesnt it make it worse then if you are unwilling to avoid using a literally racist item#the justifications i have heard for trading or wearing it are INSANE#and also proof that even in a video game appropriation can do damage like. oh my god?#in case it wasnt clear im talking about headdresses in animal jam. You know.#the item removed bc it was appropriative#but golly gee gosh its rare guys. better trade it and wear it to prove ur rich#also somebody got passive aggressive with me in an aj based disc server when i pointed out it was appropriative#“you cant control people” im not trying to im asking that they stop being racist#also yes its just a video game but its a popular one and i would fully argue it is teaching ppl to ignore their actions if it benefits them#then again ig i shouldnt be shocked there#game with rampant hacking and scamming also has a tendency to teach players to benefit regardless of consequence?#who couldve predicted this#animal jam#vent#<- i guess?#it feels kind of dumb to vent about animal jam of all things tbh#but also. like. idk its a beloved childhood game#and im allowed to be kinda disappointed that so many ppl on aj are willing to be mildly racist
