Shit like this is why I hate the game that Steven Universe is playing. They've created a pretty interesting diverse cast, but it doesn't count because 'raceless genderless space rocks lol'. And because regressive types who don't want to have their worldviews challenged enjoy headcanons as much as the rest of us, people who want to interpret the raceless genderless space rocks as LITERALLY being raceless genderless space rocks and not the acceptable ciphers for varying identities they were clearly intended to be aren't technically wrong.

Is there a "technically wrong" when multiple interpretations are built into the design of the series?

[(Anonymous)]

Choosing to interpret fictional characters as being exactly how they are presented in canon makes one regressive and opposed to considering other worldviews. Good to know.

There's what exists in-universe and what the story's saying out-of-universe, and you need to understand both to make sense of a story. To contrast a more negative approach, "Submicroscopic" by S.P. Meeks has black-skinned nonhumans who're savage and incapable of inventing, but steal the inventions of others. It also has yellow-skinned nonhumans who're technologically brilliant but incapable of empathy. At no point does any character in the story bring up human ethnicities, but it would be obtuse to pretend the characters aren't racially coded.

Or the races from WOW, like the Orcs being black, Tauren native american, Goblins jewish, Wargen brits...

Trolls are black too, but a specific type: Jamaican. The pandaren are so stereotypical chinese it's not funny (though i love them anyway), drarnei are clearly some kind of middle eastern (jewish, east indian, etc). Its the more....human like races that come off more caucasian.

Whereas I think it makes it more interesting. I'm sorry that having multiple interpretations is difficult for you.

lol sit down

Bro it's like how people tend to point out that a weak female character isn't a bad thing if there are multiple female characters. Garnet isn't the only gem coded black. I would go so far as to gently point out that she isn't the only Crystal Gem coded black.
