#tw: whitewashing

[doctorofmagic]

Regarding the recent events involving the MCU...

The only thing that I'll be addressing on my blog here is simply the fact that I've always been focused on 616!Doctor Strange, and due to recent events in comics, I'm slightly shifting it towards 616!Doctor Doom now.

That said, I'll not endorse whatever the hell will happen in the MCU and I appreciate if people keep that in mind when interacting with me. When I write about Doom, it's Victor von Doom, not Tony Stark. Ever.

That cast is disrespectful on so many levels, starting with whitewashing and romani erasure, but also everything that represents all the characters involved and how they relate to Stephen. It's bad for both Tony and Victor as separate characters as well, not to mention the relationship they were supposed to have given the events of Infamous Iron Man (and even before that).

Now more than ever, they'll be interconnected through the narrative, and I need that atrocity to be a separate thing from tags, and that includes the characters themselves and the ships as well.

I just need people to keep that in mind when interacting with me or my works. I know I don't have any control over that but one thing for certain is that fandom spaces will be hell for those who felt extremely betrayed by this decision. I'm doing my best to keep my socials safe and aware of the problematics this cast entails, but not everyone is willing to listen, as previously observed when it comes to Wanda.

All I'm saying is, Tony Stark and Victor von Doom are not interchangeable characters, the same way Clea and Christine aren't either. Yes, I'm absolutely aware of that one (1) alternate universe which was probably the inspiration for this. But it was supposed to be Victor's debut. This decision takes away his chance to be properly cast and honored as the complex character he is.

Little by little, I'm dropping everything related to the MCU, and depending on what happens next, I'll also avert my eyes from Stephen. It pains me to say that, but it is what it is. If they don't respect the fans and their voices, then they don't deserve my money or attention. They've been disrespectful towards Stephen for years, and I had enough at this point by keeping a z*onist actress and now whitewashing both Victor and Billy Kaplan. I cannot support this anymore.

Feel free to leave if you wish to remain in the MCU area of the fandom. I won't be returning to that place.

Every time I remember that Wanda Maximoff isn’t Romani in the MCU a little bit of my soul dies.

How do you interpret Minato, Naruto, Sakura, Kushina and all other characters as white-passing?

Do you think they're intended to be white or are they asian coded, but just with unrealistic hair and eye-color?

Not several random ass people starting to come at me on the hellsite of Twitter because I want Palestine to be free, and because I support "blackwashing" lmao

Blackwashing isn't even a real thing first of all.. That word was most likely created by racist white supremacists. Like it's ok to blackwash is it not? You're bringing more diversity to certain characters.. Whitewashing however is a huge problem 😭

...Like wtf do you mean whitewashing and blackwashing are the same thing no tf they ain't...

It's cool that you're doing your gif posts...

But... How do you dare call for people to tell you how attractive someone is, when you've clearly made them look like a fucking apparition?

Is the 'Casket Ready' style coming back for gifs?

.......... just asking... for science.

To be fair, Concept Art Strive Venom's skin colour being paler than his in-game model was the result of bad lighting

You ever get so mad that you make a graph?

"Some people from the Bible were real. For example Saint Peter. There is no way Vivziepop didn't know that. He was middle eastern jewish man. How does he look in Hazbin hotel? Completely white. And I've seen like only two people talking about it. No one mentions it in any discussions of racism and whitewashing made by Vivziepop. Why? She whitewashed a real person. I'm a white christian and it's driving even me crazy."
