-Concrete is a concept character that never made it into the final draft of the show, and the fact that assholes like you keep bringing her up as if her mere brief and discarded existance is some sort proof that Rebecca Sugar is totally racist deep down really proves how your bullshit purity culture actively disencourages media that actually attempts for positive representation.
-Connie being smart is not a fucking stereotype itâs a perfectly normal character trait. It would be a stereotype if it was her only character trait, which it isnât, and if you dare say otherwise then YOU are the one flanderizing her so you can support your bullshit rhetoric. While, yes, her parents did start as helicopter parents the episode in which they are introduced reveals that they are also accepting and open-minded of non-traditional families as long as they feel theyâre doing a good job, something that doesnât fit the âstuffy traditional, over-achieving asian parentsâ (also, Fusion Cuisine was written by Lamar Abrams and supervised Ian). Furthermore, Priyankaâs overachievingness and itâs influence on Connie is explored, criticized, and resolved in Nightmare Hospital, making not just an issue of her race but an actual character flaw that undergoes an arc. Meanwhile, Doug also has an episode devoted to himself and is portrayed as a loving goof who jst wants his daughter and his friend to think he is cool.
-Lars cooks a dish thatâs directly tied to his Filipino heritage. From the Steven Universe Podcast: âIan Jones-Quartey noticed, as the son of immigrants, that many immigrant families have members who go off and reinvent themselves in another country. He was bringing that to the story of Pink Diamond becoming Rose Quartz, as well as the idea that powerful and influential families can also have drama and baggage.â  âIan thinks immigrants and their kids will relate strongly to aspects of the show, especially the Pizza family which is very closely based on his family (most notably, Nanefua as Ianâs grandmother and Kiki and Jenny as Ianâs cousins).â You whistle-blowing Fake Woke douchebags sure like to ignore the fact that ACTUAL PEOPLE OF COLOR WORK IN THE SHOW. How wouldnât you? You admantly refuse to make at least a minute of research.
-What the fuck does the human zoo have to do with racism itâs not like it only has POC humans and even if it was racist it was made by the antagonists of the shows and it is PORTRAYED AS A BAD THING. You canât claim that an aspect of the show is racist when said aspect is portrayed as a bad thing that shouldnât happen. Speaking of which:
- THE WHOLE POINT OF ANDY AND GEM HARVEST IS THAT ANDY IS WRONG, YOU IDIOTS. YET YOU FUCKERS KEEP BRING HIM UP AND CLAIMING THAT REBECCA WANTS TO TELL CHILDREN TO HUG NAZIS. ALL WHILE SHEâS A BISEXUAL NONBINARY JEWISH WOMAN.
-Care to fucking elaborate on that dude? Because Bismuth is not the only black-coded gem and she is an important strong character who brings up heavy moral debates about the showâs themes. Pro-Tip: your subjective opinions on how certain charaters are handled donât proove that the team filled with poc making this cartoon is racist.
-Following up directly from all of this you dare flanderize Garnet into one trait and use it to support your bullshit argument. While fusion is an important trait and theme for Garnet so is her leadership, wisdom, her existensialism with her future vision, her motherly struggles with Steven and more. Here, look at all this moments when we get to see Garnetâs personality after itâs revealed that sheâs a fusion:
As for the other âignoredâ poc/ poc coded cast, well Iâd say Amethyst and Connie are still really fucking important and that their development has been spectacular so far. And while we havenât seen Lars and the off-colors in a while, he is still has his own important subplot that will surely come back soon with the recent events, and Bismuth is back too!
In conclussion: miss me with your fake-woke âhot takesâ, son.
