TW: salt and beastality
I normally don’t engage in fandom drama but let the storm roll in. I am angry and disgusted enough to fight a cloud.
Oh boy is it fun to come back onto this site and find out about non-Asian and WHITE Ove/rwa/tch fans put in a disturbing amount of thought and justification and fawning into winstzo… without even realizing they’re saying a POC is so emotionally fucked up and inept at being a mentally healthy human being that they need something outside of their spieces to educate them.
LOLOLOL f u C KKK
Hanzo being a broken fuck. Needs strong educated Character to set him right huh? This is the same old condescending colonial savior bullshit wrapped up in another package: POC whose family/culture fucked him up + shipping an animal character who didn’t give consent to be expirimented on and didn’t consent to being given sentience. oh and from their accent they’re coded to be western.
Great.

You all need to go outside and make friends with someone who won’t enanble your racist blindspots.
And for the record: I ship hanzo with mccree, widow, zarya. So you can toss that ‘ur just a bitter mchanshipper’ theory out the window. I thought it was bad enough that people made to/r/bzo into a thing but it’s 2018 and people love treating a POC character like a meme with questionable moral standards who is not worthy of any dignity whatsoever.
Sure “just let ppl ship” whatever. I’m not calling anyone out directly. But as a nonbinary, Cantonese person living in Canada who has seen how nasty and experienced FIRST HAND how ignorant some white/non-asian people are: I’m just as entitled to my opinion and that I have the right to be uncomfortable with the shenanigans of fans who share the same online space as I do.
I’m in one hell of a niche minority. I don’t have many people who think about my comfort. I know many others who stay silent and endure. And I’ve reached my limit today. Fight me.
