Why is this triggering everyone?
>>150173786It is?
You logged into Twitter, downloaded this image from there, and you're asking this here?
>>150173786
>>150173786i don't know what this is and i don't care it looks like its fagshit
I genuinely have a hard time believing they torpedoed not only Arcane's reputation and Jinx's reputation, but also the reputation and prospects of all the upcoming LoL adaptations and spinoffs, just to pander to handful of deranged shippers onlineIt literally boggles the mind that they would sacrifice BILLIONS in brand worth and lost profits just to appeal to a ridiculously tiny percentage of people obsessed with queer and racemixing fanfiction, truly wild times we live in
>>150173786Since OP is too lazy to give context this is fanart for a fanfic on AO3 (pic related) It went viral and people are calling it problematic.>>150174009Arcane became shit because the plot tried to be more fantastical. The story of class struggles and family tragedy was appealing.
>>150173786I'm not reading the poem.I'm just gonna think about how Jinx would look in different art styles.
>>150174095Okaaaay?Is the issue that the fic is mostly porn or what?
>>150174120Women hate Timbomb and are looking for any opportunity to shit on it, I regularly shit talk the pairing on Twitter and gets tons of likes, almost exclusively from women, it's a pairing literally made for Indian men lmao
>>150174009
>>150174137see >>150174136lmoa
>>150174136>women>on xitter
>>150173786>>150174095>>150174120This is why people are upset with that fanfic.
>>150174158Yes anon, women use Instagram and Twitter, the meme of no women using the internet does not apply to those sites
>>150173806Yes, I'm also a tranny, if that matters
>>150174161Explain like I'm 5, what is orientalist
>>150173786>>150174095Stop giving a shit about what people say on twitter>The story of class struggles and family tragedy was appealing.I agree with this actually, but the conflict between the poorfags and richfags on in the setting felt badly executed too. Also felt too big(warfare and trying to establish a new country) for a setting that was too small(one city) but maybe that's because I know nothing about LoL lore, and the murals and aesthetics felt like something larpers would do.Interesting idea, dialogue was kinda cringe though
>>150174229I will let Wikipedia explain it.>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orientalism>Since the publication of Edward Said's Orientalism in 1978, much academic discourse has begun to use the term 'Orientalism' to refer to a general patronizing Western attitude towards Middle Eastern, Asian, and North African societies. In Said's analysis, 'the West' essentializes these societies as static and undeveloped—thereby fabricating a view of Oriental culture that can be studied, depicted, and reproduced in the service of imperial power. Implicit in this fabrication, writes Said, is the idea that Western society is developed, rational, flexible, and superior. This allows 'Western imagination' to see 'Eastern' cultures and people as both alluring and a threat to Western civilization.
>>150174161>black man>leader of a big nation>owns a white woman(self insert)>self insert goes "I can fix in" and they fuckuuuuuh based and BBC pilled?????
>>150174161so we were supposed to know what xitter randos are saying about some arcane fanfic?JFC OP touch grass
>>150174269>the conflict between the poorfags and richfags on in the setting felt badly executed too.How? In the second season they mess it up but season 1 was somewhat reasonable.
>>150174229It's fetishization and mythologizing over shit from the scary or mysterious east
>>150174314I dunno I feel way too fucking stupid to perfectly articulate it right now
>>150173786>african clothesshe’s made for BBC
>>150173786Apparently it's because it's racist and "orientalist" (ie misrepresenting and sexualizing Middle Eastern clothes and culture),IMO I just think it looks cool, garbage ship aside
>>150174574Is their major bone of contention that he doesn't stay a rapist savage?
>>150174161>orientalistAsians are so desperate to be oppressed.
>>150174675Asian americans more like.
>>150174229scimitars of the turban hummus of the desert allahu akbar shawarma oasis
I hate League of Legends, and the novelty of Arcane wore off fast since it is painfully obviously marketed towards American leftists and women on the twatter.
>>150174674The major contention is 99% of people hate cartoons, video games, sci-fi, fantasy, etc, and for irrational reasons. So they search and contrive reasons to hate the things that attempt to not make them sound immature
>>150174674Oh yeah they also complained that the fic made the black man a "violent tyrant sex freak" that needed to be "tamed" by the dainty white woman
>>150174229Chinese people firstly want to insure that they're Chinese. And so say asian or oriental where as nonchinese asians say the name of their country which they are proud of.Secondly asians are model minorities in america. Under represented in prisons over represented in high incomes and upper education.This makes them the enemies of under achieving browns. To try and endear themselves to the lovers club they have to make up SOME reason why they're oppressed by and not beneficiaries of systemic racism(which is a conspiracy theory). Their longest lived gambit is "white people like us too much" which is both stupid and not true. As whites only like half-asian suoer models with plastic surgery.
>>150174161>complaining this much about porn fanficsThese people have nothing else going on in their lives.
>>150173786I was hoping this was about her father figure in the show.
>>150174136>it's a pairing literally made for Indian men lmaowtf I love it nowanyways this just reminds me of when KorrAsami happened, and there were tumblr posts saying that korra x bolin is actually less heteronormative and more queer Just shipper bullshit, who gives a shit
>>150174734almost sounds like they wouldn't mind him staying a rapist
>>150174675It's a term originally about the middle east, which is what this fanfic is themed around
>>150174158We're all little girls here.
>>150174708>painfully obviously marketed towards American leftistsI wish but thanks for thinking about me
>>150174774Very trans post
>>150174857>trannies are using "tranny" as an insult nowGood. Keep going.
>>150174961>>trannies are using "tranny" as an insult nowOnly trannies have ever used tranny as an insult. Final redpill.
