one of the billion things Hollywood / television needs to fucking stop doing that’s become a specific obsession at this point:

making loudly racist white male characters just to guilt trip the audience with “bbu..utt  ;;thheeyy  aae ggooo;;d  peeoopple you,, juusT ddon’tt nueddrrsstand” and making the biggest idiots in viewing history go “oh my gosh I guess racists have feelingzuh we are wrong to hate themm do we not all bleed the same”

we literally don’t need anymore of this shit, especially considering the fact that VIOLENT WHITE RACISTS are treated more humanely by fandoms than actual minority characters (including mistreatment from their own writers)

These are called humanizing moments, they’re not used to (and don’t) portray the person as a good person they establish them as not a baby eating lizard being. I can only speak on two of these 4 examples, but in #2 the guy still continues being a asshole the very next scene and in #3 the kid goes on to kill his dad in the same scene.

Jesus you’re stupid, mod s.
