Re: How do you feel about fans changing a significant attribute of a character?

I think it's stupid, period. It's a lazy-ass way to try to score SJW brownie points and look woke without actually putting in any effort to support actual canon representation, like, you know, creating fanworks for or talking about the minority characters who already exist in the canon or supporting creators who are making works featuring minority characters.

Ah, yes, just ignore what you like and take the breadcrumbs thrown at you. That's what you need to do!

Harry Potter has characters who are in fact Indian, though, but everyone seems to forget that the Patil twins exist.

Nobody has forgotten the Patil twins exist

They're just very minor characters with relatively little in the way of characterization

Ah, yes, characters that have maybe, what, three scenes in the entire story and are otherwise just fucking mentioned. Totally great rep.

But what if people are doing it for a reason other than "scoring SJW brownie points" or "looking woke"

also, what if you can do that while also liking existing minority characters and multiple different fandoms at the same time
