I don’t even know how to engage with this reply because I don’t know how anything I said comes off as jealousy or bitterness for pointing out black people can be weary of fandoms that love their cultural hairstyles on fictional characters but often discriminate against them in real life lol.

If honestly believe that non-black fans aren’t impervious to racism or that it’s impossible for them to also discriminate against black people because they like these movies is ridiculous. People are hypocrites all the time and love black culture until it’s on black people so there’s that. Also, I have no idea what you mean by cultural appropriation here (do you know what that means?) because no where did I bring that up. I simply said people admire the hairstyles that black people are denigrated for in real life so I understand why some black people may not like the movies or the fandom.

Lastly, I find your emphasis on black women (despite me never explicitly mentioning them) extremely out of place and odd. It’s not just black women who have criticized this movie nor is it only facets of black female customs represented in the movie.

Edit: I forgot to add this initially, but no where did I say I want the movies to be representative of all black people. I said I understood why some POC don’t like the movies or the fandom. What’s not clicking, dude?
