The white hair thing is such a strange argument to make in light of Naruto being full of black people with white hair. Hell, my uncle has white hair.
I guess they have trouble dealing with the idea of a black character who doesn't behave in a stereotypical manner.

First day of college since May 2013. Tried going to bed early. Feel asleep at 9, woke up at 12:30 and couldn't sleep. My alarm goes off in 5.

out of the 2 community threads i even bother looking at, i'm still not shocked that BCT has the 'hypocritical homie' and not LettersGAF
I feel you. I gotta sign up for whatever classes I can because I finally have the money to do it, and I haven't gone since like 2012. So I gotta go back to the school, reapply and then be like 'uhhhh how do I do this again'

I STILL remember that one poster in one of the comic related threads who said something to the effect of "I stopped reading comics after I watched Black Panther put Silver Surfer in an armbar, ugh such shit".
I was like word...so it's obvious you only saw that panel via GAF threads and don't actually read comics nor did you read that issue since on the very next page Silver Surfer says that armbar pretty much did nothing and he could have escaped easily.

That minorities in video games thread is going about as you would expect it to.

I kind of want to make "straight white male protags that actually justify their ethnic circumstances" an annual thread after the resounding clusterfuck that was the original.
We can right this ship. Just need to reach another part of the cycle.
Like posting black people in anime.
Black people in games?
Black people in Sonic?
I'd try black people in Kingdom Hearts, but there aren't any.

There are a couple dudes that flip their shit whenever Black Panther is mentioned. Talking about how evil he is.

As I mentioned earlier, there are not enough people from these respective groups complaining about these changes. For example, the film Exodus. The majority of people complaining about the movie being white washed were Black US citizens. There should have been more actual Egyptians complaining about this film. Egypt did end up banning the film though but not over the white washing:

With films like Ghost In The Shell, Japanese people have even more sway since these films are being approved by Japanese rights holders and companies that own the original properties. But I feel a lot of these groups just don't care because it's not their home countries making these films and as long as their home countries aren't white washing their media, they don't care about what happens here.
That's crazy. It's directly referenced in the game when Kenny makes a racist assumption about Lee knowing how to pick locks because he's "urban."

If the character isn't as dark as midnight pitch, they need a flashing neon sign saying "I'm BLACK"
and even then they'd still doubt.
Funny thing is the doubt is only there for good characters.
Rochelle got so much shit when they showed her. Suddenly everyone was like 'oh w-where's Zoe?' Even used the old 'I don't hate black people, I liked Louis!' when they wanted her gone before knowing anything about her character.
The Left 4 Dead 2 cast is really underwhelming compared to the Left 4 Dead cast but man Rochelle was the brightest spot of that cast.
L4D2 lobbies are awful. "Oh man I gotta choose the nigger" "don't let the nigger skeet you!"
Honestly I blame that whole 'black guy dies first in zombie movies' trope
Are there best buys in Hawaii?
Apparently, depends on the island we had a dude order a 60 inch with subwoofer and some other shit and it took us like 30 mins to figure out how it was going to work because his area didnt have one and he wanted the install
Should have told them to send me with the order and not to worry about buying me a round trip ticket
Just strap you the box with some gatorade and some slim jims, you will be alright.
What's funny about that is the two most important/best zombie movies of all time feature
A) The black guy as the last survivor(Night of the Living Dead)
B) The black guy as one of the two to survive(Dawn of the Dead)

I loved that Rochelle was an absolute dork deep down, making Anchorman references and shit.
The pairing between her and Francis was cute too.

Gas is $1.96. Thanks opec
What the fuck is a snow?
Yeah. We got 6 inches of snow here last night, which isn't TOO bad, but it's 10 AM and trucks haven't been to my neighborhood or the road leading into it, which is like the 3rd busiest road in the area. The last 3 years, the city has only plowed around down town, which is really dumb because the only people that work down town are cops, judges, and the mayor. Wait.
CUNTS. It's also 11 degrees. I'm pretty content to not dig my little car out and go anywhere today anyway. Yesterday it was 5 degrees. The day before? 45. Supposed to get to 9 below tomorrow night. I guess that's what happens when it was in the 40s and 50s for most of December.
Why do I always look at your avy and think for a split second Ishi has come back to us? ;_;
Quit tricking me man!

so, uhhhh
Maybe something to the effect of "games that saw huge cult followings or mass interest in specific ethnic groups?" I know the Brazilian / Portuguese community made up a huge amount of the population on Pokemon battling sims back in the day.

he survived the dirty dozen, brought back the spear of destiny, saved us all from a nuclear launch, and sold the devil his own soul back, and really I saw most of those but I did not see all of those......... It's a new year man, welcome back.

Rufus' original concept art was a black guy.

It seems like the majority of the fighting game community period is composed of non-whites. When I used to play, the majority I saw were blacks and Hispanics and most of the top players in SF are either black, hispanic, or white: S Kelly, Alex Valle, Daigo, Combofiend,Justin Wong, Luffy, Snakeyez, PR Balrog etc. I could go on.

How do you go from honorable brother bare-fisted monk to a palette swap of the fire-breathing jugglers from Pokemon Gold and Silver?
