Then say that. What's being from a monoracial country have to do with that.

ayrt
It means that some asian living among asians has no moral obligation to draw animal characters black like americans seem to be.

I see your point actually. FWIW I think my position is that I don't think people have a moral obligation to draw the characters as black, but if they did have a moral obligation, it wouldn't change based on whether they're in America or Asia. So I was sort of confused why being in Asia would change things.

I think it'd only be problematic if an artist refuses to draw characters as their own race as it's just too weird.

"it wouldn't change based on whether they're in America or Asia."

Id' argue that it does make a difference. If you live in a a country where 99% of people you see and interact with in your daily life are a certain race, and you are not reminded of the existence of people of another race on the other side of the world very often, it makes sense to default to imagining humanized versions of animal characters are being of your race.

But if you live in a racially-diverse country, which up until very recently had a black leader, something's not quite right if you don't notice the existence of other races.
