Personally, when people blackwash characters with no confirmed ethnicity I think that's alright and very cool, the designs are ALWAYS amazing too 🔥🔥

idk why people get offended about character’s skin colors
like you never say anything about obviously whitewashing but when your favorite white/pale skinned character is black? oh yeah you’re racist.
and I also never really understood why it’s racist? you aren’t saying that white/pale skinned characters are bad and you aren’t using racist characteristics/attributes in the black version. so what’s the problem? and even if there is a problem, it’s just a fictional character!
I hate when people bring up asian people only when it's time to harass a black person online for changing character's white skin color to black
"they erase asian representation!!!" THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT ASIANS. IF THEY DID THEY WOULD CARE ABOUT ACTUAL HATE CRIMES AND DISCRIMINATION AGAINST ASIANS THAN "BLACKWASHING". IT'S PERFORMATIVE ACTIVISM/THEY PRETEND TO CARE ABOUT THEM.
DISCLAIMER: Again, im not a racist and just by me not supporting blackwash doesnt mean i do with whitewash/asian wash. All of them are bad and i dont encourage any artists/editors to change one's race to another, fictional or not, its still awful to disrespect an individual's original race, thank you. And tw, curses.
Istg some of those fuckass blackwashing artists are literally just black fetish, like hoes you dont have to turn every character you just see into black omg, give those poor characters some representation of their own race lord (both targeting to black/other races artists who blackwash characters)😭🙏💔💔
"but what if they do it for black representation?"
It doesnt matter if its for their own race's representation, its still racist as fuck but yall are not mature and ready enough for that conversation. Plus as they're changing the characters' races to their own theyre practically erasing the original representation of the skin tone. Again, for the fucking one thousand time, blackwashing is NOT cute or represented, it is just straight up RACIST and DISRESPECTFUL. If drawing a character's skin tone in their original color is that hard then dont even consider joining/enjoying any fictional media/fandom from the start good gay lord. No, Jaxmin, im not tryna be a black racist and a little insufferable bitch online, im just spilling a fact which you're not smart enough to accept it.
Yes, this is targeted to THAT one artist on pinterest who literally only posts about blackwashing asian/caramel skin toned characters. Worse? They even did blackwash some of the white characters (if i remember correctly) and so so so many people are supporting them. Dude, Jaxmin even said im annoying for saying blackwashing and that artist is racist😂😂🤣✌️

There are people out there who claim to be not racist, allies of people of color, pro-black even. So pro-black that they advocate for new black characters as a form of "actual representation", while sending death threats to real black people over "black washing" fictional characters with no canon race whatsoever. And they hold a special place in the darkest, hottest pits of hell, btw.
why are people so afraid of representation?
i recently saw a rooftop trio vid that i loved so much! the animation was incredible and i had to smash every button on my screen. but ohh dude when i got to that comment section? 😒😒my blood pressure went up i swear
the creator drew aizawa and oboro (as he is in canon!) tan and the comments were full of baseless accusations of blackwashing and people offended that someone drew their favourite characters with a different skin tone.
every time i draw the rooftop trio, i get similar comments so you can only imagine my frustrations. i have a lot to say about these claims.
first off the accusation of black-washing? black-washing isn't a thing and is an odd thing to comment. is every tan or dark skinned character automatically labeled black? the creator didn't specify headcannoning oboro or aizawa as black and even if they did, so what? what is so bad about drawing fictional FICTIONAL characters black or other races? if the character's racial background is integral to their story, it's pretty straightforward that you shouldn't change it. but if nothing about their character would change, who really cares? i know i don't
also i just don't get what is so crazy about drawing fictional characters with different skin tones. here's a fun exercise. (In the context of my designs, i headcannon oboro to be filipino-japanese and aizawa to be a quarter black.) how many mixed POC asian characters are there in my hero? like what, one? (Rock Lock's kid) what about in a broader sphere. how many mixed POC asian actors, singers, celebrities or etc can you name off the top of your head? now how many white celebrities can you name? the difference is insane. headcannons like headcannoning a character to be mixed or another race when it doesn't affect their character or personality doesn't do anyone harm. it makes it so people who don't have the privilege of seeing themselves so openly represented a stage! a chance to be seen. call me crazy but i don't think that's so bad
