N.K. Jemisin was attacked by right-wingers. The reason? Simple: her story has no white characters and is centered on non-white characters. The story is original, but apparently it’s still woke. If a story can only have white characters simply because the author wanted it that way, then what’s the need to give 10,000 explanations for the existence of minority characters?

Are you being obtuse on purpose? Even if a story is based on African mythology, it would still be attacked by right-wingers, as it’s a pattern of right-wing behavior to attack works centered on minorities. The US isn’t a white country, it’s a multiracial country. Being a multiracial country, it should be normal to have a story with minority characters, but the mere existence of a Black protagonist is enough for them to say it’s woke. In fact, whether a country is predominantly Black, Asian, or white is irrelevant. An author could create a story where a white person dies and is reincarnated in Japan with the mission of saving Japanese people, and there would be no complaints. Put a Black, Mexican, or any other minority character as the protagonist in a Japanese story, and you’ll see right-wingers attacking. The point is: there are no limits to fiction when it comes to white characters, while minority characters must give thousand explanations as to why they exist, otherwise it’s forced representation.

If someone created a female character with the same story she would be called Marie Sue. Suddenly a woman loses her parents and becomes a billionaire and uses the money to fight crime. They would s. ay thOne at is not realistic.
Yes, Superman is also Gary Stu. Since you have a problem with the Batman example, then I’ll use superman. Why do people tend to love characters like Gary Stu as Superman and hate female characters who are considered Marie Sue?

And why wouldn’t it be? Mangas sell more than comics. Animes are consumed in the domestic world. Why wouldn’t it be?

Can you ask questions normally even using a VPN? Could you tell me which VPN you use?

In fact, I don’t respond or interact. When they appear in my feed I simply block them, but no matter how much I block racist and right-wing accounts they continue to appear in my feed.
