>>2326320most time nobody gives a shit about the way those people draw their fanart, the real problem is always the attitude that usually comes with them. it's very different being like:
"hey guise i drew harry as an indian because i am indian myself and i always wondered how the iconic boy-who-lived would look like if he was indian"
from being like:
"i drew harry indian because who said he can't be indian??? there's nothing in the books explicitly stating that he's white!!! harry is indian sorry i don't make the rules!!! stop being racist!!!"
you know?
but i, personally, don't like race-bending because i think it's stupid as fuck and i will be always skeptical of anyone's motivation behind the race-bending anyway.
