Ok I gotta know if any of y'all have come across people talking about the race/ ethnicity changing community yet.
I have half a mind to believe it's all people trolling each other (I can only hope it truly is) but with how wild the world is, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if people (assumedly young people) believed they could listen to subliminal videos and magically change race.
What gives me pause is the response from youtubers who cover this. It's entirely disdain and shock, and poking fun at them, especially since the majority of youtubers who cover it are not white themselves. I mean of course. Why wouldn't it be. These are blatant fetishizations of (mostly) asian ethnicities and completely racist portrayals.
But it makes me think. Why in this day and age, when everything seems to be acceptable, is this the thing where people draw the line, calling it weird, just a phase, it's impossible to actually do, etc. And yet if you claim to be able to change sex, it's crickets?
Don't get me wrong, it IS fucked up to claim to change race. It ISN'T possible to simply watch a sibliminal video and claim you're developing monolids or whatever they think will happen. So why, when race changers "claim" an Asian woman's face as their "race goal" that's weird (it is), but if a man were to do it as his "woman goal" none of y'all would have an issue with it? So many of the arguments against race changers can be applied to those who think actually becoming the opposite sex is possible.
