I said it elsewhere, and I'm gonna say it here: I've seen Hispanic fans make a good case for McCree not being white. He was repeatedly depicted in merchandise and comics with skin color several shades darker than other white characters. He thinks to himself in Spanish at one point in the comics, and lives in an area which historically had many Hispanic cowboys. Was this the developers' intent? Probably not, but it was a valid headcanon, so making any changes that steer the character closer to whiteness is going to feel like a major disappointment.

It's not like being pale under his tan makes any hispanic headcanons null and void, though, any more than being darker than several blonde people and an albino makes him definitely not white.

there's something creepy in how (american) fandom is obsessed with brown skin colors as signifiers of representation


(not condoning whitewashing actual characters of color etc etc)
