SJW Art and Extremes

[Kiwilurk]

They say make Noelle black like her mom isn't the whitest woman in the entire UTDR series.

Some cope with "she's mixed"
HER AND HER FAMILY ARE FUCKING DEER.
Side note: its funny how these people headcanon any non-human character they don't like as white, like Noelle's mom.

Kinda crackpot theory but since Berdly is a bit of an asshole but with some nuance to his character, they headcanon him asian since for these people they are honorary whites, depending on the situation.

“THEY’RE CODED!!”
As if they don’t “code” characters as absolute racial stereotypes.

Speaking of deltarune.
Apparently some people are mad at the artist for making Noelle white.

The boyish, rude and abraisive Susie is dark-skinned, of course. They always tell on themselves.

Honestly the whole "coding" characters thing always felt racist to me.
Isnt it just racial profiling but woke?

The only "coding" that made some sense to me is Garnet in Steven Universe. She's an anthropomorphic gem and she's a dark red color - so she can't actually be a flavor of black human, but it's very obvious that she is supposed to be black.

But then I also see people claim that Pearl is "Asian-coded" and Amethyst is "Latina-coded" and that makes zero sense to me.

"Coding" as a concept has existed in literature for a few centuries now, but it's never been tied to race and race only.

It actually comes from the concept known as "queer coding", coined during the late 20th century due to the fact that many animated Disney movie villains were obviously given homosexuality-related traits (Jafar, for example, wears very visible eyeliner and implied eyeshadow; or Ursula being blatantly based on a drag queen if we wanna be straightforward about it; or Him's entire schtick in PowerPuff Girls if you want a non-Disney example) because of the negative connotations at the time.

It's always been used as a way to evoke a particular disliked group without deliberately making a character, to be more precise a villain/antagonist, part of said group; and it applies to any historically prejudiced group, not just homosexuals or other races.
If you wanna see an example of the opposite, there's Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice where the main antagonist, Shylock, is a Jew the protagonist owes money to, and William didn't hold any punches with making him a walking stereotype.

And that's what "coding" is, really, very subtle negative stereotyping. Alas, today it's just yet another watered-down term where, if a character checks enough boxes out (or you reach for straws hard enough), then they're TOTALLY [group]-coded, which means that they're TOTALLY part of that group.​

What particularly irks me is that people made “minor coded” a thing. Like “That character who’s 25 years old but acts immature sometimes is clearly minor coded, you pedos!!” or “This character is shorter than her boyfriend, so she’s minor coded and he’s a pedo!!” Where the hell did that even come from??
Thread tax so we don’t get too far off track.

This is probably old but I saw it making the rounds. And it’s great how the puppy looks scared while the trans wolf looks downright demonic and predatory in a tranny way.

So "leave us alone" correlates to fascism with these kinds of people, okay.

It always has in their eyes. Or they’re like “UHHHHM, don’t you know that the alt-right has claimed the snake, sweaty?” And to that I once again say, “Why are you letting ‘da nahtzees’ claim things? What happened to ‘reclaiming’, huh?”

 

[Ultraman Orb Dark]

I'll never understand the point of humanizations of nonhuman characters that erase everything that was recognizable about the original character's design in the first place.

Well how else can they fetishize them?

Apparently the kid got harassed into "fixing" Noelle.


The undertale/deltarune fandom really will try to execute you if you dont draw a character how they want you to or play the game in a way "you are not supposed to"

"Deers are brown, so human deers should also be brown! But white ponies are aren't white because shut up that's why"

 

[RazorBackBacon]

Amethyst is "Latina-coded" and that makes zero sense to me.

You see, she's latina because she's short fat and a massive cunt.

This becomes even funnier if you watch DRESS.MOV.

(Most of the comments are in the artist's defense, but these were the top ones upon immediately scrolling down.)

The most ironic thing is that both Undertale and Deltarune are games that heavily revolve around themes of choice. Undertale's whole thing is that you got to choose what you do, be it sparing or killing the foes you cross paths with. You'd be encouraged to be more pacifistic within the game itself, but there was nothing stopping you from killing a few monsters or going full no-mercy route. Deltarune is a bit different in that its whole deal revolves around the fact that the player is said to have no choice, and yet the player can influence the playable character Kris and there's a lot of tension surrounding their dynamic as you control him.

All of this is to say that it's incredibly ironic, but not unexpected, that a whole fandom full of SJWs lacks basic reading comprehension and media literacy as they blissfully ignore the core themes of the games they're so obsessed over. (Or maybe they just took the ending line of "In this world, you have no choice" after the mock-character selection screen too literally and discarded everything else in Toby Fox's games.) We've seen examples again and again of these lunatics harassing Japanese artists, but I think it's a new kind of low to harass a child into changing her artwork for the woke. I hope she learns to grow thicker skin in the face of these people and continues to draw because her art style is very cute and shows a lot of potential in her skills.

I think this is because one of the biggest themes in both games is control, rate me autistic but SJWs are so obsessed with making people follow their perspective when it comes to UT/DR and that anyone who doesn't do what they want is clearly "playing the game wrong".

 

[Gruel Ghoul]

They're too retarded to be drawing political art. They don't know the symbolism of the rattlesnake because it's been passed around through a game of telephone in SJW circles and they're too lazy to do their own research.

Today it’s used by them to limit other people’s creative freedom online. If you draw something like Jack Frost x Elsa (Jelsa) you would be harassed because Elsa is lesbian coded or whatever. And “x-coded” lost all its meaning because sjws think that any character that struggles with feeling isolated from society or hiding something like mental illness, identity, or ailment (rumi from kpdh they say is queer-coded) are blaaaccckkkkk or gaaayyyyy. It shows that they are just self centered or because they can’t put themselves in other people’s shoes around the and have to head-cannon a character to be just like them in order to empathize with them.
