Y’know what’s worse than finding out this stuff by going to general boards? Finding it out by going on a board with no content guidelines. Or going to a place where you can meet these people in person. I’m a white guy who goes to a lot of car shows and it’s still astonishing to me just how much hate I hear directed at roughly 60% of the population just because the speaker assumes that I’m a white guy at a car show and therefore must share all of his prejudices.
I’ve sometimes thought about carrying around pictures of women of various ethnic groups, waiting until a pause in the latest rant, then pulling out the appropriate one and saying, “By the way, this is my girlfriend.”
Haha, nice.
My love of Inuyasha and Sesshomaru will forever be scarred.

I MUST TRY THIS!
That runs into the problem of fetishization and Orientalism
I’m re-reading the archives now that I’ve finished the other three comics.
I’m so proud of myself for knowing who Robin’s talking about in panel 4. ^_^
So the KKK are trying to buy a guy who is Asian?
