TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 01:28 AM FWIW I know a couple of Native Americans who things it's pretty ignorant and gross when white people joke about their stupid spirit animals.
ohnoitsbonnie 04-02-2017, 01:33 AM There's no escaping cultural appropriation
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 01:36 AM I've come to terms with the fact that I actually don't care at all if stupid white girls wear feathered headdresses at Coachella because they think they look cool. Why the fuck should Native Americans really care?
redbreegull 04-02-2017, 01:37 AM the raccoon is my spirit animal I'm sorry if that is offensive but the idea seems pretty vague to belong to a single culture
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 01:38 AM kind of like dreadlocks
redbreegull 04-02-2017, 01:41 AM the concept of a "spirit animal" is not unique to native american cultures though

redbreegull 04-02-2017, 02:02 AM the celts have a conception of totem animals as well
redbreegull 04-02-2017, 02:02 AM I'm sure many other cultures do too but whatever I'm not concerned about it, the raccoon spoke to me so

Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:13 PM FWIW I know a couple of Native Americans who things it's pretty ignorant and gross when white people joke about their stupid spirit animals.
but people complaining about scarlett johanson being cast as major motoko kusanagi are just *whining* got it
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:15 PM the concept of a "spirit animal" is not unique to native american cultures though
not even remotely, its unique to human culture. in fact, its a pretty standard "pagan" religious belief throughout the world & history
but he googled something rq so he won the argument i think because after all SPIRITS ARE DUMB (which is somehow not insulting to spiritual people, idk i have trouble keeping up with liberals cherrypicked PC-of-convenience)
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:15 PM but people complaining about scarlett johanson being cast as major motoko kusanagi are just *whining* got it
ScarJo is not playing a person of a different race int he film, but I know you don't care about the details Mr. outrage culture
also I made it clear that i personally don't really give a fuck about spirit animals
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:17 PM i see, i'm mr. outrage culture for thinking its gross to cast a blonde white woman in an asian role but mr. spirit animals are anti native american is different
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:18 PM its outrage culture if it effects your ability to feign geek cred at the office, i guess
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:18 PM in. this. live. action. film. it. is. not. an. asian. role.
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:19 PM it is too, her name is motoko kusanagi and she's a major in the japanese military
if thats not the movie then why is it ghost in the shell? why do they even make her look as much like the major as possible?
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:20 PM have you even seen ghost in the shell the anime
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:21 PM her name in the movie is Mira Killian you fuck
if you read my post in the other thread you'd already see that I acknowledged any alleged white-washing happened in the scripting/pre-production process when they decided to CHANGE THE STORY SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THE MANGA AND ANIME
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:21 PM i mean i know you wanna stroke your scarjo boner & thats fine don't try to come in here defending native americans tho
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:21 PM her name in the movie is Mira Killian you fuck
her name is motoko kusanagi, they can change the name around to justify the white casting all they want
the fact that you think this is a counterpoint is fucking pathetic
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:22 PM aramaki's in the movie. batou is in the movie. but because of the casting we have to change it from motoko kusanagi to "mira killian" even though she even looks the same & is a cyborg working for section 9
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:23 PM it must be incredibly frustrating and stresseful to be you all the time
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:24 PM yeah i have bipolar disorder, neoliberal scumbag
kicking you off facebook permanently
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:26 PM I favor an exorbitant tax on the rich so I'm pretty sure that's not neoliberalism
and Native Americans, or anyone who gets upset about "culture appropriation" that isn't blatantly cruel/mocking needs to chill the fuck out.
I just posted about it being offensive to fuck with people. I really do have some Native friends who rail against it but I don't think they're right.
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:27 PM lets remake shaft but instead of calling it shaft we're gonna call it SMITH and the lead will be Bill Smith & he'll be a bad ass private dick in the 70s
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:28 PM Lets make Storm into a solo superhero movie but instead of casting a powerful black woman we're gonna cast Amy Adams & then rename her Jenny O'Brien and she's now from Pittsburgh instead of Ororo Monroe from Kenya. thats cool right? we changed the name & shit.
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:29 PM SHAFT has everything to do with him being a black man in 70s America.
Major's character has nothing to do with her being Japanese in the film.
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:30 PM "in the film" in the manga & anime tho she's japanese as a matter of fact & story
this isn't really an argument, this is about your denial & apparent ignorance of the source material
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:30 PM Lets make Storm into a solo superhero movie but instead of casting a powerful black woman we're gonna cast Amy Adams & then rename her Jenny O'Brien and she's now from Pittsburgh instead of Ororo Monroe from Kenya. thats cool right? we changed the name & shit.
I would watch Amy Adams in anything.
Storm grew up a poor pickpocket on the streets of Cairo, and was part of an African (Kenyan) tribe who literally thought she was a "witch" due to her weather powers, and how it affected their crops. Being African was important to her character's background.
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:32 PM "in the film" in the manga & anime tho she's japanese as a matter of fact & story
this isn't really an argument, this is about your denial & apparent ignorance of the source material
The director of the anime thought ScarJo was an awesome casting choice.
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:32 PM lmao you are reaching so far, why? is this about the water cooler? how much you wanna bang scarlett johanson? your appreciation for any popcorn shit that crosses your path?
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:32 PM The director of the anime thought ScarJo was an awesome casting choice.
nobody cares dude, i'm sure he gets royalties. i don't give a fuck what he said. this movie is trash & you're trash for defending it so fucking hard.
its actually worse that they changed the name
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:34 PM lmao you are reaching so far, why? is this about the water cooler? how much you wanna bang scarlett johanson? your appreciation for any popcorn shit that crosses your path?
Why is it so important for you to convince me I'm a racist ignorant scumbag? You don't have to see the movie. I did and enjoyed it without being outraged by controversy that Japanese people don't even care about.
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:35 PM it must be incredibly frustrating and stresseful to be you all the time
i'm not sure i can even express how much i hate you for this
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:38 PM The western entertainment industry should write more roles for Asians and cast more Asians in roles that actually reflect their place in American culture. I don't think anyone who's the least bit culturally aware would dispute this. I don't think this movie is a great example to use for this battle.
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:38 PM Why is it so important for you to convince me I'm a racist ignorant scumbag?
i see, thats the problem. you still take it personally. nobody called you a racist
i did call you a scumbag tho yea, remember how i had a panic attack & couldn't meet you in person? yeah it is pretty stressful being me all the time, i kinda wanna kill myself if you didn't hear
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:39 PM The western entertainment industry should write more roles for Asians and cast more Asians in roles that actually reflect their place in American culture. I don't think anyone who's the least bit culturally aware would dispute this. I don't think this movie is a great example to use for this battle.
for you nothing is a great example or a good time tho
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:39 PM i'm not sure i can even express how much i hate you for this
That's kind of my point. I enjoy going back and forth with you, and I'm not actually the least bit upset/angry with you as a person. I think it's cool your "fighting the good fight". I just don't agree with being called racist or culturally unaware for enjoying Ghost in the Shell (2017).
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:40 PM for you nothing is a great example or a good time tho
Just off the top of my head, Olivia Munn as Psylocke in X-Men Apocalypse. They should have gotten an Asian actress and fleshed out her rich backstory to reflect the comic. The character was bullshit in the film. (although the character has a white british person's brain so fuck that's a pretty problematic example...)
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:41 PM i didn't call you a racist, jesus fucking christ
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:41 PM i see, thats the problem. you still take it personally. nobody called you a racist
i did call you a scumbag tho yea, remember how i had a panic attack & couldn't meet you in person? yeah it is pretty stressful being me all the time, i kinda wanna kill myself if you didn't hear
I didn't know you had a panic attack then, I thought it was just bad timing. I'm genuinely sorry to hear that.
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:42 PM Just off the top of my head, Olivia Munn as Psylocke in X-Men Apocalypse. They should have gotten an Asian actress and fleshed out her rich backstory to reflect the comic. The character was bullshit in the film.
you mean the terrific backstory that is the mess that she's an englishwoman in an asian body?
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:43 PM Yeah I edited that above. That's a complete cultural clusterfuck.
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:43 PM now that we're talking about specific character backstories & how completely stupid & problematic they are i just can't even
i kinda want to burn all of nerd culture to the ground at this point, i'm so tired of this
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:43 PM It's more of an issue of just casting normal Asian people in sitcoms/dramas/films that aren't "the smart one" or "the meek one"
Trotskilicious 04-02-2017, 06:44 PM how about a commanding action heroine like major motoko kusanagi
TuralyonW3 04-02-2017, 06:44 PM now that we're talking about specific character backstories & how completely stupid & problematic they are i just can't even
i kinda want to burn all of nerd culture to the ground at this point, i'm so tired of this

FoolofaTook 04-03-2017, 07:55 AM It was a terrible, indescribable thing vaster than any subway train — a shapeless congeries of protoplasmic bubbles, faintly self-luminous, and with myriads of temporary eyes forming and un-forming as pustules of greenish light all over the tunnel-filling front that bore down upon us, crushing the frantic penguins and slithering over the glistening floor that it and its kind had swept so evilly free of all litter.
LaBelle 04-03-2017, 07:57 AM Oh they swept the floor, how sweet of them.

FoolofaTook 04-03-2017, 07:59 AM Hp can be really cool. he can also be really corny. i would recommend his shorter stuff if you want a taste of lovecraftian lore. dagon, the outsider, polaris. all solid stuff.
