It's the "period-typical anti-semitism" tag that sends up all the red flags for me. It reads as easy whump, rather than any sort of well-thought-out headcanon.

And of course not, unless it's the same issue: writing/headcanoning a character as POC in order to subject them to racism for easy angst. And unfortunately, that makes up a large chunk of "racebent" fic.

I also take issue with non-POC writers headcanoning characters as POC for no other reason than the buttpats that it entails. There's rarely any thought or reasoning behind it, much less any genuine research, it's just "they're [insert ethnicity here] now, and if you argue with me you're racist."

Well, they've backed themselves into a corner where any insufficiently oppressed characters are "literal shit" or whatever, but here they are with yet another crush on yet another pretty white boy. Better layer on some quick oppressions before the cognitive dissonance gets you!

Except that tag could be for, and I've used it for, period typical antisemitic terminology and views (not derogatory, just old fashioned terms) canonically held by the main character about minor characters, not for "easy whump" - in fact it was because a Jewish reader asked me to tag it. So backbuttoning for the tag alone is daft.
