#we should support media with actual ape talent. case in point the Planet of the Apes films

[jesncin]

you really like saying "white characters (and a gorilla)" adfsjkssks (I laugh because I sigh disapointedly at the context)

HAHA I say it just in case anyone tries to "But Actually Mallah also underwent bigotry, JesnCin! Not just white people!!" and also it's really funny that MAWS prioritizes a marginalized gorilla over POC.

SPEAKING OF WHICH!! I know I complained about how they didn't get a French actor for Mallah considering how atrocious his accent is, but can we get some noise over the lack of simian talent behind the scenes?? You're telling me they couldn't get an actual gorilla to voice Mallah? Like I know their monolith casting of General Lane (a supposedly Korean character with a Filipino voice actor) is insulting, but this is another level! This is censorship! This is the sanitization of gorilla identity! MAWS is proudly continuing the notorious anti-ape sentiment behind DC's One Gorilla A Month rule and it's sickening!

I bet if they were pressured to get an actual gorilla to voice Mallah, they wouldn't even get a French Gorilla. Let alone the unique intersection of being a gay French gorilla. They're all just a monolith to you guys! "oh at least we're seeing a Gorilla on screen" bah baloney! Labor justice for simian talent behind the scenes!!
