America-neetz-Asian? America-knee-zay-shun? America-kneez-Asian? How are you supposed to pronounced that wholly unmarketable title?

It's "Americanization" but with "Asian".
And I agree, very clunky.

Am·e·ri·can·i·za·tion. I think it's a pun.

Americani-Asian?

At least it's not America-NAZI-an

And it's also American Is Asian. It's a double play.

Oh great another self hating minority from the West. Coming from an actual filipino, this so self depricating

I admit, it's a good idea, but since English isn't a phonetic language, the pun is lost in not knowing how the word is supposed to be pronounced at first glance.

>Since Friday, Luna’s thread has sparked conversation throughout the industry. Former Image publisher Erik Larsen tweeted, “The only partner involved with approving Image central books is Eric Stephenson and crying racism and taking to twitter is a classless move and absolutely unfounded.”
Well, guess who's not going to be publishing with Image for a long while?

>learning about art by white guys in a largely white country, founded by white people
I'm shocked, to say the least. It is important to learn how to draw different races, but he's just being a dick about it.

Yeah actually looking at it these are straightforwardly newspaper-tier political comics. All you need is a Superman figure labeled WHITE HEGEMONY standing behind a guy at a desk labeled NAIVE ARTIST OF COLOR while Lady Liberty peaks through a window crying

This rice nigger has a bigger chip on his shoulder about race than even classic niggers. Every single comic he makes focuses on WYPIPO BAD as if the world is out to get him, and then he uses his asshurt to say that the same thing happens to ALL Asians. Fuck this prick.

This is exactly what happened between Marvel and Chelsea Cain when they cancelled Mockingbird. She indignantly took to Twitter because she "refused to be silent" and ended up burning the bridge with them. She went on to make Man Eaters regardless.

Context?

A very clumsy portmanteau

I wish everyone was taught this in school.

Asian males are not a protected class. You are not black, or brown, or anything that would entitle you to claim a POC experience in America. Your own women despise and belittle you even as they prance around flaunting progressive credentials and claiming minority status while basking in attention from thirsty weeaboo virgins. They openly exhibit this preference in front of you.

No one likes you or is going to stick up for you. Not even Progressives will take up your cause. You are nothing but an effeminate joke to them at worst, at best you are invisible. Only the Asian American female experience is of any relevance.

If this is one book out of multiple that Image has publish, then he has no legs to stand on. Someone's Tumblr artblog, which is what this reads as, isn't required reading nor publishing. Image didn't see a market for it, and like it or not Image has to make money. And I would seriously doubt Image would sell more then a couple hundred copies. Maybe make something that is marketable.

Give it a decade or so, they will be.
Social Media Presence 101: Lesson #1: Don't post shit about politics. Lesson #2: Don't start arguments. Lesson #3: Follow lessons 1 and 2 religiously.

The guy that wrote Vertigo's Border Town was accused of sexual assault.

If I have this right he wanted to publish his webcomic as a monthly book for some reason. He was probably told it wouldn’t sell to that market in that format (and it won’t) and blew a gasket. This book would do better in bookstores or libraries than comic shops and he’d better off submitting to a dozen other places, or crowdfunding it. If he doesn’t realize that he’s either dumb as shit or intentionally trying to drum up a controversy.

He actually calls out Chinks, Japs and Gooks for being more privileged than his brown jungle nigger Filipino ass.

Even as he criticizes whites, fucking Filipino island filth need to appropriate from other more successful Asians and lump his smelly shitskin self with them

A graphical essay would work, as would intermittent collections (KSBD's collections are published by Image), but this is something way more suited to Fantagraphics or other indie publishers' wheelhouse than Image. But you're more than likely right that it's an intention drumming of controversy which will more than likely be followed by a kickstarter in a week or two.

I completely forgot that was supposed to be a thing.

Why I wonder why they didn't want a comic from one of the masterminds of Girls.

Same people that tried shilling Gabby's mess!

Since when did Image shill Gabby Rivera?

He’s not a bad artist but I can tell he drew this on an iPad and it pisses me off for some reason.

>Resentful hapa and tiger mom who hated her white husband
Hmmmmm

Lee is Korean. See for his opinion on Koreans.

He straight up implies that the only way for Asian women to not be complicit in anti-Asian racism is to sleep only with Asian men.

He unironically is, though.

He devotes an entire comic blaming white people for his shitty art.

Lack of journey to the west

I like his art so much more now, but what an absolute faggot he is. Nothing is standing in your way idiot. Make thing and then tell people about it instead of telling people that you're going to make thing.

Because Gene examines what it means to be an Asian-American through the lens of his own experience, is willing to show negative aspects his character's mentalities, and isn't a cockbag about it. Josh Luna would be an antagonist in a Gene Yang book.

Does Image even publish anything outside of fantasy flavored action/adventure?

>the market is much bigger than white people
Yes, it's called "anime" you dumb islanigger.

ManEaters, The Walking Dead, Southern Bastards (#21 coming soon, 2025), et. al.

Yes, pay more attention man. Sci-fi/fantasy is definitely their bread and butter but they do explore other genres/non-genres

Kill yourself for this opinion needledick.

guys like Luna will complain that Western media doesn't paint Asian men as sexually attractive or desirable, but is that really true? Cause I know tons of white and hispanic girls who thirst after K-Pop idols.

but he brings a point
why can't we see more interpretations of Asian AMERICANS in American media?
that aren't the typical China town stuff (its cool but not fresh)

we do get a lot of Asians from Asia in media, but thats mostly just focused on kungfu and anime knock off stuff. again its not bad stuff for the most part but its not fresh

so what you're saying is he's actually taking a stand for himself?
whats wrong with that

K-Pop isn't Western media, user. It's Korean media.

the difference is Yea Forums doesn't read comics and didn't know who he was

>I know tons of white and hispanic girls who thirst after K-Pop idols.
White girls loving niggers is a meme. The truth is white girls love Asian guys and Asian girls absolutely love white dick. Hispanic girls love whitey too.

t. Hispanic guy who loves white women

k-pop is korean media

where in american media directors won't cast asians because they don't think they're "expressive"

>line of comics
That doesn't really work because Image just publishes the shit they don't curate it. They'll publish any shitty comic, even Howard Chaykin's. You all remember that controversy and Image's defense of him?

It's amazing how much of a cunt he can make himself look with one page and have no self awareness about it

Image will publish anything as long as creators pony up the money to cover the initial costs.

I guess he thought that he was entitled to something different from their usual model.

>He straight up implies that the only way for Asian women to not be complicit in anti-Asian racism is to sleep only with Asian men.
Just change Asian to white and he would be a straight up Nazi. The dude is clearly insane

>spend your life learning from white artist

Image isn't a vanity publisher (not in the traditional sense), so you don't pay them up front. Instead they take a cut from your earnings once your comic starts selling.

what the fuck do you mean by that

Who is telling him he shouldn't do that? If you think I am you're missing my point entirely

>getting mad over a term that's been used uncontroversially by latin americans for years

There is literally no art school that teaches you to only draw white dudes.

Learning Renaissance techniques is not about drawing white dudes. I highly doubt there are more than a light handful of art teachers that will enforce that all models/subjects be white either.
There are some people that do use it and some that don't. My Mexican friend fucking hates the term because it rapes grammar but on the other hand I'm pretty confident I know at least 1 person who does use it.

I am white as fuck, although l do live in south Texas but, even I know what that is. They are trying to change at least some of the gendered words into gender neutral.

I have mixed feelings on it. Part of me is annoyed because it feels like sterilization. The other part of me likes a way out of the stupid Latino/Latina trap. It seems to pedantic when people try to call me out on that.

I can't be sure since he seems a bit nutty, but he's probably combining both art history's focus on male artists and the samey 'house style' of capeshit.

If he'd written it, his comic self would be crying on every other page.

A good metaphor should be easily understood by the reader/listener. A good metaphor should also avoid confusing language or scenarios for the sake of clarity.
I've heard a constant narrative that schooling about [Medium/Genre] is all about learning from dead white guys. So trying to use that metaphor just reads as you speaking literally with the narrative

Ascender and Saga are space fantasy.

most Asian Americans don't like being lumped together with all Asians
They aren't like African Americans where they are united by a shared history

Bruh just start a web comic with an OG story. Before Murata even got involved in One Punch Man, the webcomic was getting millions of clicks. The art literally looked like an elementary schooler drew it, just make a good story.

>most Asian Americans don't like being lumped together with all Asians
I've felt like every Asian believes in this worldwide to a degree. Nobody can stand one another but I'm just making generalizations here.

The same applies to Skeleton-Head Bookseller Mr. Honda and My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness. Heck, even Isekai crap usually start as webnovels, then become LNs, then Manga and then Anime.

Asian Americans each have their own starting points in America and own history of oppression

thinking asians should all be lumped together is like assuming irish are "white"

My exposure to Japanese, Korean and Chinese people makes me think that they only tolerate each other because it's rarely legal to murder each other in the streets with knives.

I don't use it, my niece does. A lot of college educated Hispanics seem to use the term. In my circle of friends abd acquaintance, females seem to use it more than men, but anecdotes don't mean much. Anyway, I'm "Hispanic" and can verify a significant portion of younger people use it.

It's filipinX now, silly

Up until recently, Latino was the default gender neutral term. I can’t even imagine how to pronounce Latinx.

“PoC Solidarity” is just woke imperialism. If there’s anything Luna gets right, it’s attacking this idea. The Japanese, the Koreans, and the Chinese all hate each other. My friend visited Thailand, and the tour bus guide openly mocked the Chinese as part of his routine. Religion and religious thought seem to be the only thing to bridge the gap funnily enough.

He's the one who invented it.

That makes it sound like it is a Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters campus located in Mexico City

The people who care about this kind of shit are whatever suits them at the time. Asian when it's convenient, Filipino when it's not.

How exactly do they plan on getting Latin American nations on board with this anyway?
I can’t imagine the absolute clusterfuck it’d be trying to teach entire nations this.

what's your point because i think you missed mine

La-tinks

americans think being oppressed means having to look five extra minutes to find hair product that works for your genetic type

they are no to be trusted in any discussion about actual historical oppression

So, it's used by elitist degree holders to differentiate themselves from hard working Latino people?

Latinks

It seems to be a college term. At my work, the old Mexican managers hired some ftm trans people and they all referred to them as girls still. One of the managers made one wear a hairnet because it’s restaurant policy for women to wear them even though they essentially had a buzz cut. My hair was longer then theirs at the time.

No we don’t use that. We think it’s stupid.

Also, the fact that discrimination happens to most Asians even in their own country of origin.

>Is Alan Moore the authority on communism now?
Alan Moore became very anti-communist after he realized occupy Wall Street was full shit and missed the point of V for Vendetta.

Our entire language is gender coded, whiteboy. We literally do not care because its the foundation of our language. You will not find a single person in a Spanish speaking country who thinks this.

Define "common", I guess. Usage seems to depend on demographic and generational factors.

The term apparently originated in Guatemala as an all inclusive term meant to be welcoming to non binary, gender fluid, etc. people. I simply use "Latin" and consider it just as inclusive. The truth is we would be more accurately classified as a kind of creole and "Latino/a/x" "Hispanic", etc. fail as a classification when you think about it.

i don't disagree

Here is Burgerland, we don’t consider Middle Easterners as as Asian. They’re all just some form of Arab, and maybe you’ll get a guy that acknowledges the Persians and Pakis as different. It’s funny, Luna’s comics seem almost redpilled on PoC solidarity while also falling for the American centric ideas that made such an idea possible in the first place.

You seem to have some kind of chip on your shoulder. The term isn't meant to differentiate anybody, though demographic differences certainly play a part in who uses it. I don't use it myself, but I don't sport out when I hear people use it like some itt either.

>Haha imagine being this sheltered. Go outside, take a stroll (and I can't believe I have to tell you this...) TALK TO YOUR PEOPLE! Seriously, man.
Yeah I actually live in a town that’s 99% Mexican immigrants (border town, y’know?) and the Latinx thing has never come up. If anything, Mexicans at least are the most politically incorrect people in America.

who wouldn't honestly
but here's a point
comic companies have wasted a lot of money supporting other minority groups on rebranding characters for diversity points
but when an Asian American comes along with a point to make, he gets the curb?

i guess its okay to take a stand when you're trying to pander to every other group

You sound triggered we don’t care about your political correctness.

Most people in Asia are ignorant. Though, I shudder to think what a Filipino-American would perceive them as.

Alright, bud. I think we're done here. CLEARLY, someone is only interested in keeping their DELUSIONS alive while someone else simply wants for truth to rear it's blessed head. Peace, Latinx. I only hope peace upon you.

But you saying Latin Americans means you're giving away part of your Latinx identity and giving up your spot in the diaspora because you want to integrate/assimiliate into white culture!

At least that's what people that use Latinx pressume.

As someone who actually is filipino I give absolutely no fucks about the ethnicity of a character so long as they're well-written. But all these whiny MUH REPRESENTATION cunts never seem to get that. God I hate other fucking filipinos, I hope a volcano swallows all the islands.

What white people say that?

The term is designed to be as all-inclusive as possible, thus making it the absolute opposite of divisive in intent. It is both racially and gender neutral. I personally find the term unnecessary and no more accurate or descriptive than Hispanic or latino. Creole would be the most fitting term but most people know dick about anthropological terms. Anyway, get fucked.

Again, Latino is a thing. It’s not the Spanish language’s fault that it’s heavily gendered.

He's probably never even been to the Philippines. If he had been, he wouldn't want to learn more about his heritage. The Philippines fucking sucks; I've been there only once in my life and it's such a goddamned culture shock that if any of these people experienced it they'd kiss American soil every day. Fucking trash beaches, squalor, people burning trash out in the streets, giant ticks and flying roaches, cobras, all kinds of fucking shit. In the provinces you can't even flush a toilet without throwing a bucket of water into it, there are no hot showers...place fucking sucks.

Yeah that makes more sense.

Occupy was sabotaged by plants because the mild-mannered protestors didn't savagely resist when white women started trying to show up and run the show into the ground. There's literally no reason to ever put women in charge of a social campaign.

Exactly. The dude snuck in discussing a few issues in that. Alluding to a few things. But he stuck to asshole kid learning to be Superman as the core of the book. That's a universal story. That lets other groups have a relatable lens into an "other".

Yang isn't an idiot about this shit.

Yeah that’s true. Latino/Hispanic is more of an American designation. Most people from Latin American just say where they’re from and leave it at that.

Some people don't start webcomic because that means you'll do alot of shouting into a void before someone takes notice of you. Getting published is a faster way of getting noticed and this guy looks like he just wants the quick path of attention.

What does Latino mean and how does it describe the people of the western hemisphere it's supposed to correspond to? I'll wait for a good answer on your part but I won't hold my breathe. Latino fails to describe what "latino" people are just like "latinx" does, which is why I'm not bothered by it (because I stopped being bothered by the problems with "latino" a long time ago, shit ain't worth the effort). We are all pretending at a racial group that doesn't actually exist. People say "hispanic" or "latino" or "latinx" because they don't understand what creole means.

Because people like him who've probably never been to the Philippines can maintain being proud of their "culture" from a distance, so they don't have to face the reality that it's a terrible place and all the best culture there came from Spain or China.

I'm not white but carry on with your hissy fit.

>What does Latino mean and how does it describe the people of the western hemisphere it's supposed to correspond to? I'll wait for a good answer on your part but I won't hold my breathe.
It means person of Latin American descent, whereas Hispanic is someone with Spanish ancestry.
Adding o and a at the end of words in the Spanish signifies that you’re referring to a person (see negrito, chinito). X is completely meaningless.

a lot of the problems of the Philippines are also due to Westerners taking advantage though

Oh god it's this nigger again.

I mean, this is a guy who would have a following prior to starting one. His art seems to have improved quite a bit since Girls, and it’s technically sound. Quick path to attention seems right, successful web comics don’t have to worry about publisher approval, nor do they have to answer to people who say they just won’t sell. There’s no reason for him not to at least give it a shot.

What hissy fit?

Considering these pages have tumblr watermarks, I'm guessing he tried having his webcomic on tumblr and didn't get enough likes/reblogs to his liking.

Hispanic merely means Spanish speaking, not necessarily of Spanish descent. Why is Latin America called "Latin" America? What does the term mean?

Doesn’t Creole mainly refer to people from the Caribbeans?

>Hispanics aren't a hive mind which is why I can say with absolute certainty that they all use latinx

Nope, don't know why you're advocating so hard for this term that most likely doesn't apply to your demographic, but lations don't use "latinx" like, ever. It's only uppity white people that live nowhere near any sort of border town that take offense that the Latin American Spanish language would even dare have gendered words. Grow the fuck up.

It can. It can refer to any culture or language formed from a blending of two or more existing cultures/languages.

You're not wrong. East Asians and Southeast Asians have exactly one thing in common and that's having had their history and culture influenced by ancient China, which is as much of a nonstarter as saying a Spaniard and an Englishman are practically the same because they were once both provinces of Rome. Personally, I hope to retire the term Asian as anything other than a purely geographic adjective. American identity politics is one half intellectual laziness, one half branding promotion.

Many European languages developed from Latin, with Spanish and Portuguese being the most direct descendants. As most of the colonies in South America were founded by Spanish and Portuguese countries, this became the language, thus becoming Latin America.
So basically Hispanic but also covering Portuguese speaking cultures.

Would America count as Creole? Even going back to the first thirteen colonies, it was a mess of different cultures.

I wonder how insulted Asian people who are already in the industry feel about this guy, he's basically calling all of them uncle toms.

But I like Asian men because all the black guys I know are thugs and all the white men I know are hicks. If I could bash my father's head in for an Asian guy, I would.

I was more referring to the comic where he says he wants to make more stories featuring Asian Americans. Like an brand new original narrative featuring an Asian protagonist. Not his borderline web comic he used to complain. Proving those stories could work could net some major opportunities. Yang’s successful stories about being a Chinese American have gotten him the privilege of defining how China fits into the world stage in the DC universe. That Sara Kuhn girl apparently started as a YA author writing stories about Asian protagonists that were apparently successful enough that now she has the privilege to introduce Cassandra Cain to a whole new audience. He just has to actually make those stories man.

Judging by the font, I can tell this is 'shopped

This alone shows how much of a trash artist he is. I've never let any art teacher who tells their students they have to learn to draw white people only and the only masters worth anything are white people.

In western culture and art, a lot of them will be white by the simple truth that the west is predominantly white. Beyond that, the masters tell you how to be an artist, typically through observation, practice, trial and error, and plane hard work.

When you go to classes, models are what's available, And not a thing where its about "picking white people". Most art classes have a pretty wide range of people based on race, sex, age, weight, and etc. Art teachers explain basic structure and form to help you visualize but expect you to observe and learn the nuance.

If he hasn't grasped that aspect, then hes not really a person who can call themselves an artist, but nothing more than a modern day race hustler more interested in pushing false narratives than creating art for the sake of art and story.

He can get bent, IMO, cause his stupid world view craps all over artists, no matter the background.

What I was trying to lead you to was "latino" fails to accurately describe the population of the western hemisphere. There is no accounting for the tremendous amount of native and African influence on the people and culture, nor the myriad pockets of influence from other European and even Asian groups. Latino is an inaccurate term people are married to simply because it been in use for a while. It is no more accurate or better at describing our people than "latinx". People clearly use the terms they want to use, there is not much of a reason to get bent out of shape about what other people call themselves. All you silly fuckers are doing it wrong getting mad at others for doing it wrong in different ways.

>He just has to actually make those stories man.
He totally could. Again you gave examples. But for some reason, rather than use his resources to create, he simply tears down things around him.

I'm not, this is just a wide ranging topic and it would be more than easy to lose our focus.

>there is not much of a reason to get bent out of shape about what other people call themselves.
You’re kind of the only getting out of shape at this point.

You'd be surprised how some Arts & Design Institutes have very rigid styles and denounce anything that cannot easily translate into Disney/Pixar/Dreamworks.

>All you silly fuckers are doing it wrong getting mad at others for doing it wrong in different ways.
That’s not a good argument. It basically amounts to “All language is meaningless so who gives a fuck?”
It’s pretty pedantic.

Oh it does, and has tremendous social consequences, but it's a big game of pretend we are all playing. Black and white are so nebulous in meaning they are almost meaningless.

Neither is he. The most insufferable kind of white is the so-called moderate progressive, the one that gets offended on your behalf (or not) depending on how much they feel like virtue-signaling that day. Malcolm X said as much decades ago.

I am a strong proponent of the idea that words have meaning, but people itt are railing against one term for its problematic linguistic origins while promoting another with just as many problems.

In the end, Latino is what the majority gives for, with Latinx being the outlier at the moment.
You could lecture about the nuances and technicalities all day, but if the native speakers themselves want to call themselves that, who are you say what’s right and what’s wrong?

Oddly enough, the white feminist panel is spot-on -- just look at Kate Leth, she abandoned The Valkyries the moment the complain about WoC being ignored or having their ideas stolen by white women in the group went viral

Also, it's funny how Asians are also attacking Affirmative Action even tho their representation in Ivy League schools is already overperforming their numbers vis a vis their demographics in the US.

Oh shit this is bad. This is actual real incel stuff.

They’re really not all that nebulous. They’re short hand for “born with Western European heritage” and “born with African heritage”. It’s why you see the term African American more used these days

Someone who understands what words mean, but you make an excellent point. That's why I have said I don't care what people call themselves--regardless of meaning people do what they want to do. We all know what someone means when they say "latino" or "latinx".

"You're not totally wrong, you're just a cunt about it."

That looks cringey as fuck

I won't argue with you, but I'm sure you know there are people who would question your definition of those terms. But you do you, homie.

The sad part is the Filipino superhero designs like kind of neat (those sandals on the guy are pretty eh though).
If he just made a comic about these two fighting crime, everyone would be happier.

God, Maneaters is such a bizarrely shit comic. She had an entire issue dedicated to nothing but her shitty in-universe propaganda.

>but I'm sure you know there are people who would question your definition of those terms.
No, there really aren’t. You seem to be acting smug over nothing.

Asians are attacking Affirmative Action because schools are treating them like white people, ie their scores and merits don’t matter as much as their race when getting admitted.

TWO. Issue 4 and Issue 8. And the rest of the issues are no better. Full of graphic design filler -- I swear they're a graphic design portfolio/thesis more than a comic. In 8 issues published so far, there's only been story enough to actually fill 4 issues.

I know some Italians who would argue with you, and African Africans is a whole other conversation. Like I said, you do you, but maybe don't assume you speak for the entire world.

Lol, read the thread again.

As an Asian American, the juxtaposition of seeing my mother be praised by my old high school for being such a hardworking, dedicated member of the community and beloved by the students, to hearing her talk about how annoying her Chinese immigrant neighbors are is really jarring. Asian American solidarity is a subgroup, where the Japanese Americans, Korean Americans, and Filipino Americans can join together and laugh at the white people, but the moment the actual countries get brought up, it all falls apart. It’s impossible to be inclusive of Asians with only a single character to represent them all, that’s why Sulu was named after the Sulu Sea instead of giving him a specifically Chinese or Japanese name.

>He’s not a bad artist
You're right, he's an awful artist.

Actually, I was wrong and underestimated their numbers.

Based on Ivy League demographic numbers, their lowest percentage at an Ivy League university is 14.1% at Brown and in several other institutions they make up at least 20% of the student population

But yeah, Asians are discriminated by Affirmative Action.

Outside of linguistic technicalities, there’s nothing problematic about the usage of Latino.
The problem people have with Latinx is that people are forcing it on a language that doesn’t really accommodate and without consideration for the native speakers, which is ironic considering it’s all being done in the name of PC.
It’s the equivalent of trying to tack on a wheelchair ramp to a building without anyone’s input.

Italy is southern Europe. Are Germans white? That's central. Dutch people, Netherlands? North. Eastern Europeans not count? Russia? How wide we casting this net? The bigger the group it contains the less meaning the term has.

>lol I am so trolling

>Are Germans white?
This has literally never been a question that’s needed to be asked.

Asians in a lot of schools now have to contend with the bar for entry being higher than even white people. Sure you could argue that they seem fine clearing the bar anyways, but it’s more the principle of it, and it is gaining a bit more traction now that more than just white people are getting mad at it. I think some Asian family was suing Harvard because their daughters scores were better than the majority of people who attend Harvard but she got rejected anyways. The claim being she was passed up due to her race.

I described the problem with the term here

>What about all these white people? Are they white?

So what I'm getting from this thread is that black people should be grateful that they lost their tribal identities over the course of decades of slavery because if they didn't they'd be just as divided, bickering, petty and ineffectual as Asian Ameircans and Latino Americans are today?

Don’t Africans despise black Americans?

Which is precisely why the statement "white is short hand for western European" fails.

It's more than that, we're playing with a handicap. Based King of the Hill had an episode about it. Kahn was talking to an admissions officer at Texas U and he was pointing out all of Connie's accomplishments, and the admissions officer flat out said it didn't matter because Connie was Asian.

Yeah my point still stands. It’s a social thing, not a linguistics things.

>thatsthejoke.jpg

So we agree the term is inaccurate... Want some tostones?

Aren't Arabs and Persians considered white by the US Consensus?

People know what you mean when you say white. To say how it’s really a nebulous term that can be argument is pedantic and makes you look like a pseudo intellectual

To some it up; people connect Latinx with SJWs. People don’t like SJWs. That’s literally it. It’s not that deep.

Well, boohoo~ Many of these asian families with kids applying to Ivy league schools are affluent already and feel entitled to a spot simply because of the cram school mentality -- and lack the self-awareness they already have an advantage over the average american of any other race and are over-represented at the college level.

So when people like you assume America is for whites only everyone else needs to get out, it seems off and people naturally call people out on that

Well shit user, we can agree on that. Latinx is definitely more stupid than latino. From my experience, it seems to be what the kids are moving towards though. It is what it is. I had a philosophy professor try to push "latinoa" on me when I was younger and was similarly annoyed.

Very different cultures. The racist whites call me "beaner" out here, it was "spic" back home. Or they don't know what to make of a Caribbean and call me a nigger. Shit gets complicated.

And more often than not retarded flash in the pan slang happens.

Sadly you’d probably get called a nigger (well, negrito) by Mexicans in the American South.
It’s that kind of rough.

Because Latinx is totally just slang.
Fucking idiot.

I would say it's worse because folk has simple meaning describing a broad cohort, latino/a/x has a supposedly simple meaning that fails to describe a very complex cohort.

That's the end of the conversation. It's the "God can do anything and is beyond comprehension" argument in a theistic debate.

Whites dominate the superhero comic market because surprise surprise, whites and jews made a lot of the first big sellers.

Apparently nowadays, being white is the same as having a superpower.

the problem is "privilege" as a philosophical concept is useful. it truly is. it has existed in western and eastern philosophy for millennia.

"social justice" became a thing and, as it tends to do, perverted the philosophy into something ugly and obscene. privilege is now equivalent to the religious concept of sin, which by nature is accusatory and shaming. it was changed in this manner to increase the academic authority of a few fringe racist professors, who've, in many cases, become the victims of their own ideologies (see: black harvard law professor kicked out for defending a rapist, i.e. his job).

like racism, the social justice fringe doesn't really understand privilege. just know that the concept of privilege, in its original intent, was only ever intended to highlight the limits of our own perceptions of ourselves and others. it is taking inventory of the things we've experienced and haven't experienced. it is not silencing people who are comparatively better off on some spreadsheet of goodguy/badguy.

Marvel and DC will suck your dick for a minority character. The modern Agents of Atlas are just a giant Pan-Asian circlejerk. Any character created after 2000 is probably minority.

I'm pretty sure the conversation wasn't "Asians don't sell in the market" but instead "No I don't think people want to read your self insert Super Filipino fighting White Devil and Ronald Drumpf."

We have real problems to deal with (poverty, gangs, drugs, trafficking, etc). We don’t have time or care about being politically correct. It’s very low on our things to do list.

A story that uses Flip culture without being a cirlejerk and that focuses on universal themes of brotherly love and competition. I feel that's something all brothers can relate to--loving your brother but also seeing him as a rival.

Are Filipinos the niggers of the Asian world like how Hondurans are the niggers of the South American world?

>There a lot of stories of magic kris knives in Indonesia, so make a legacy superhero who passes down a magic superpower granting kris from father to son. The last guy had the misfortune of having TWO sons and now they not only have to team up to fight evil together but compete for who gets the kris and all of dad's power because there can only be one champion at a time.

No the stereotype is Sea Mexicans. Every Mexican stereotype generally applies with a Pacific Islands flavor.

I’m trying to remember exactly what my dad told me. I think my great grandfather was working on something involving the horse(like horseshoe replacement or something) or was tied to something that the horse hooked onto. Either way, my grandpa was working on something and saw it all happen before his very eyes. Also held his dad in his arms as he died slowly. Grandpa never really liked to talk about it

>My face as I'm fucking China in a trade war

Jesus Christ...
Sorry to hear that user. Just...fuck.

So what I’m hearing is the Chinese are do nothing wrong brining in millions of women and raping them.

>Are Filipinos the niggers of the Asian world

Yup, they're part of the group that is commonly known as SEAniggers.

Her big outburst was over Vision, not Mockingbird. Vision was cancelled before release (with enough art for a issue or two done), so she went berzerk

That's probably how I forgot that "Vision" was going to be a thing.
