Grayskull wasn't race-swapped

nothing is too stupid for him

Looks pretty white to me

Yes, I'm fully aware of who Ted Biaselli is and where he works, and I'm also familiar with the character of King Grayskull, so I'm not sure what it is you're trying to say here.

What I was alluding to in my comment was that Biaselli stated on the Facebook comment in that tweet, in no uncertain terms, that yes, they did, knowing and willingly, racebent not only King Grayskull but Andra as well. Because black people are apparently so shallow and narcissistic, in his estimation, that they can't relate to a character unless it also happens to be black.

Which is, quite frankly, not only a bizarre but incredibly insulting and yes, dare I say, racist way of thinking. I grew up watching tokusatsu shows. The cast of those shows was, quite obviously, 99.9% Japanese, and yet that somehow never got in the way of my enjoying them despite my being decidedly not Japanese - maybe because they featured narrative themes and tropes that are pretty much universally human, maybe because I'm not so unspeakably shallow as to feel unable to relate to people if I don't share a culture or ethnic background with them. Personally, I'm inclined to say "both".

We know black people exist. Leftist like you cry about it every 5 minutes

If there's no representation of black people in media then maybe the awareness would be skewed. But there is a lot of diversity on TV now so children cannot fail to be aware.

Television is propaganda and the reflection of the bias of those who produce it. How useful is that bias? There is no doubt the producers do want to control the audience and to integrate their opinions and create a worldview that avoids racialism in adulthood. That would be helpful. And to create role models for black children? Also might help in that regard.

Nothing is natural about what you see in the cartoon. It truly is constructed or mediated from top to bottom. There are no natural encounters that occur randomly as in real life. So hard not to ignore efforts to manipulate the audience.

I don’t think

Cant wait for the next white Black Panther... It's just a fictional story after all.

Its not like wakanda is a real or even a realistic place that could ever really exist.
