that's how real history was though. europeans literally had to conquer north africa so arabs would stop raiding europe for slaves, and they had to stop slave trade globally. hell, saudi arabia stopped slavery only in 1962 because of political pressure from USA.

Shouldn't it be considered racist that the peaceful nation is being invaded by evil foreigners trying to erase the native population? That's some Hitler tier shit

>>
>>731412832
let me get this straight

if you make the villain ethnicity not white while the hero is white, it's racist and wrong
if you make the villain white while the hero is not, it's perpetrating the representation of white supremacist acts and it's wrong
if you make everyone white, there's not enough representation
if you make everyone NOT white, it's a targeted stunt or propaganda
if you make everyone made up races, they're clearly inspired by real ones and that's bad
if you make completely original races with no hint of any influence form any real race, then it's ok

so according to these retards, no game should ever be made unless it has 100% original races that are 100% inspired by nothing real, which is literally impossible to make cause in a way or another you WILL give them some real traits, be it an accent or a facial feature that vaguely resembles this or that race(think of the Ferengi from Star Trek, where their big ears were a replacement of big noses for the jews they represented)

Being a descendent doesn't give your argument merit. The same way I can't write about English history and bullshit it because I'm English, my race has no bearing on the merit.

everything can be criticized and nothing is ever good enough, on paper they'll tell you that's just how we reach the enlightened communist utopia and you should simply take the criticism, in practice it's their tool to eternally bully artists into compliance so they only produce art that serves as propaganda.

That's just "and yet you live in a society" nitpicking. The license says "sex" and not "gender", compromising on something so minor instead of demanding the entire world bend immediately to your new theory isn't a contradiction.

>>
>>731415781

They're not. The media just uses Asian for describing them because it lumps in actual Asians with them.
It's the same way they describe someone Polish, with a Polish passport, name and speaks Polish who happens to also have a British passport as "White British", it's a way of presenting a narrative.

It's just manipulation. Try to convince people it's the Chinese looking people that are rapists, not the Brown Muslims.

Yeah we should remove anything remotely resembling middle Eastern culture in any media after we've already removed all references to any indigenous races that wear feathers.

Orientalism should only apply when its an unaccurate portrayal of a real life culture.
I think it shouldn't not be considered in the case of works with fictional cultures loosely based on real life cultures, specially in obvious fantasy settings that are not earth, when all cultures (includying european and east asian lookalikes) have notable cultural diferences with their irl counteparts, and when said works haven't explicit xenophobic messages.

I'm not, it's just that the people crying about twitter posts are more annoying than the post themselves. If it brings up a worthwhile topic I really don't give a shit if it's from a twitter screenshot or not, what matters is the conversation going on in the thread. which is why I hate when the faggot mods close threads that have a good active subject going on, just because they didn't like the OP post. I've made exact posts like this, talking about how I'm pleasantly surprised Nintendo got away with creating a sand nigger villain like Ganondorf with no pushback, but people don't click on those posts. so I don't blame people for posting twitter shit.

Nah, the Gerudo in OOT were vaguely based around Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves and various Arabian Knights stories.

If a white man wrote them, then yes it would be racist, but all those stories originate from Arabia itself.
