>>108717744>How is a story about the evils of racism not relevant today?because racism is used as a club to unevenly attack people. Shit that is legitimately racist is brushed off as socially acceptable, and stuff that is completely normal is deemed racist.
I mean, look at the little mermaid thing recently. Taking a traditionally white character and making them black is okay, but if you look at say Ghost in the Shell where a traditionally asian character was played by a white woman, people screamed their heads off it was racist.
It's not used evenly or fairly. if we're going to talk about the "evils of racism" then we have to actually talk about them, but people refuse to do so. In which case, what is even the point of talking about racism.
I mean, is Superman going to face off against the ADL (an organization formed to protect a fucking pedophile), or the NAACP, or the Black Panthers? All of which are fairly racist groups when you get down to it.
