The issue is more the people being unintentionally racist and don't see it as such, and now, they see people making comments about how they merely want source accuracy and think "That's just like me!" while ignoring the fact that they said things that are just plain wrong in addition.
I think that was my issue. Obviously it is debatable whether wanting the race of an iconic character to remain the same throughout different mediums is racist or not.
But some of the posters said outrageously racist things about black people as part of their arguments or rationalizations. They would have been better served keeping it simple instead of delving into their reasons because some of their reasons were racist.
In any case, I guess the rule is just not to call specific people racist. I would just report their post at this point, I guess.
I'm dreading the live-action Akira movie in which they will recast all the Japanese teens as Americana-friendly whitebread kids. Does that make me racist?
