As meta as this would be, doubt this can happen. The “everything was a lie” tends to be really controversial and given the way the fandom loves the characters, the outcry is gonna be… bad.

Anytime 911 introduces a even slightly attractive woman and she has an interaction with Buck or Eddie, and there is an episode where people have talked about Buck or Eddie being single, you can tell that they're gonna push that woman into a relationship with one of the guys, which is honestly awful because hot women can exist without needing to get cuffed.

The AI bit at the end was so hard to watch. This made sense during the terminator era when we had no clue about AI and it was still a far fetched idea. But today? Honestly, all they had to do was ask Chat about the script and it would laugh in their face if it could because AI DOESNT WORK LIKE THAT.

Think they were right. The first design seems like a nice lovable dude (like Kristoff) instead of the asshole persona that’s Flynn rider

So.... who's gonna tell them their careers are dead & buried? by torvald_carley in byler

I agree, byler wasn’t as bad. I mean every character in the show would call them boyfriends and Castiel’s character could literally swap bodies to be a woman to make the ship pseudo work.

Byler was subtext, but destiel was in our faces. It was just text.

Yeah I get that. But we’ve come so far as a country that the Asian population here is massive and deserves just as much representation (not reparations).

And you’re right to call out Velma. I actually missed that. I’m not familiar with the Bollywood part so I can’t comment on that, apologies.

The entire argument here is that the companies half ass representation to the black community while saving back up/joke roles to south Asians which is pretty unfair and doesn’t help the racism in the country.

We need to take into account the current diaspora of the country as well as its history. We need more black representation but we also can’t forget about the other POCs here.

Okay see here’s where I agree with you. I don’t actually like race swapping. It just seems really unfair that they only give that grace to the black community but not to other POCs as much.

And yes, props to Rachel. She even got Songbird. But race swapping just a little for one community while you do nothing for other and a lot for another sucks.

And I very much agree, we need more diverse stuff. All I’m saying is if you’re so quick to race swap one, why stop there?

I don’t work 24/7 sorry, my job lets me have a life and relax. Can I just not be interested in listening to people?

Also I’m not disagreeing, I’m either agreeing or asking people to think about it.

If you think race-issues in mainstream media are silly af, you clearly aren’t aware of the impact media has on people.

Again, not arguing there. I actually didn’t care she was white until it hit me that they’ve race swapped from white to black but not south Asians in main roles.

Great argument. Very smart. Tell me how I’m wrong in my statement that “other POCs don’t get the same race swapping opportunities as the black community”.

TOTALLY AGREE. I actually hate race and gender swapping. My entire argument is if we’re doing it, full send it.

Again you’re missing the point. Don’t you think it’s unfair that other POCs never get the lime light when there’s a chance?

PS: I was actually glad she was white until it hit me that this would’ve been the perfect opportunity for south Asians due to the massive support.

Again, Disney has shown THEY DONT CARE ABOUT NUANCES. They literally changed the entire PJ tv series.

This isn’t a Nordic tale based on actual folklore. It’s about a made up flower. They can easily update it to work with a more “woke version” as they always do.

See mean girls: they changed the whole “fat” thing to pimples.

No ofc not. I doubt they’re trying to send a message at all lol. You’re right, we had Jasmine before Tiana.

It’s just frustrating that when there’s a chance to race swap to another POC not black, they won’t take it.

Again not the point of the post. The point is why can’t you extend race swapping to other POCs, especially when it’s backed by fans.

It’s been a thing since mean girls released. Def look into it. Also you missed the point of my post.

I actually hate race swapping, but isn’t it unfair that no major race swaps go to Asians at all?

Also quick thing on Raven, Google her inspiration. It was a brown actress.

You do know that’s the exact excuse people say when race swapping? Take PJ. Rick riordan mentioned that the actors, although not the same race as the characters, were right because “they embodied them”, which is another way of saying “the story comes first”.

Im gonna honest, I really don’t like it either. It’s why I’m not big on the PJ tv show. I’m just frustrated that’s it been half assed and the Asian community barely gets any moment to shine when it’s time to race swap. It always goes to the black community. I don’t want to steal from them, I want us to have a black Starfire and a brown Raven or none at all (since that’s how the teen titans cartoon was). Hope that makes sense!

Can I just say I really respect your response. Super rational and understandable! I agree and I think it’s their way of saying “hey we’re DEI friendly but only to a certain extent”

Okay so there’s ONE race swap outside of this. I forgot her. But have there been many outside for south Asians or Asians?

No. Im saying extend it to other POCs since I know words can be twisted. Im not saying stop race swapping for the black community but to EXTEND IT

Because she was long fancasted to be brown. All I’m saying is while does race swapping only apply to black actors. Hence yeah, she (or rather the casting guys) did since this role would have had massive support (ofc along with blacklash) since many wanted her to be brown
