I've always felt that if a fictional character's race means nothing to the story then they can be changed however anyone wants, if it matters to the story then you shouldn't change it
but there has to be a reason they’re changing the race of the characters. They’re not doing it just to do it

A lot of my friends that get up in arms over race and ensuring historically marginalized groups get a chance to tell stories they haven't always had a chance to insist that "race shouldn't matter" and "they don't see color; they just want the best person to get the job"... then get upset when a characters race is tweeked in a story. It seems like a double standard to me.

for me I think that inventing original characters of non white origin is better. Taking characters that have been white for 60

I don't think many people disagree with that, it's the getting mad when they do it to a character who's race doesn't matter that I laugh at lmao Hollywood is lazy as fuck though, that's clear with all the remakes, sequels, and prequels running rampant

Starting a new game in TEW playing the Risky Business 1985 mod. I've set a fantasy territory company I called Third Coast Wrestling to open in 1988, and I'm going to sim three years to get there right off the bat. Interested to see what the wrestling world is gonna look like when I get there.

I don’t really give a shit that little mermaid is black cause it’s a fucking mermaid. She could literally be pink lol. However, making Snow White Spanish is ridiculous because her description is literally that her “skin is white as snow” so that’s weird.
