felt redundant to reblog again but, i was the one who asked if some acts of censorship were racist. this may be a silly/over-correcting question but: Would it be equal-but-oppositely racist to /only/ write those tropes in games/anime? relegating them to anime and games feels like,, segregation with extra steps idk uiruaivnjrnhvig
Anon, I’m squinting at this ask and trying to make sense of it.
I think the best answer I can come up with to your question is:
Yes, it would be very racist to say that only Japanese people are allowed to write with or use specific themes (shipcest, age gap, teacher x student, etc) in fiction.
There are no broad themes, ideas or tropes that belong to one race or culture in the world.
Please let me know if I’m misunderstanding your question!
