No one is white or Caucasian in Avatar. Because there aren't Caucasus mountains... and because nobody is white. Get with the program.

(Anonymous) 2012-05-18 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
...really?

Where did I say anyone was white or Caucasian?

(Anonymous) 2012-05-18 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
They're suggesting that, because you (correctly) said no one was Asian in Avatar, you must be asserting they're white.

Which you clearly didn't.

Trying to argue with the SJWs is pretty futile because they're always put words in your mouth, as you just found out. To them, it pretty much amounts to this: if you don't think the characters are Asian, you're a racist or something equally absurd.

I am not an SJW. Mildly interested in SJ stuff if it improves things for people, but not an SJW.

They said "characters that appear to be white". Because the commenter is white, they see the paler-skinned people in Avatar as 'appearing to be white'. Learn to read?

(Anonymous) 2012-05-18 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Actually, what they said was:

No one is Asian in Avatar. Asia doesn't exist in Avatar. Get with the program.

So yeah, like the anon above said, putting words in their mouth.

(Anonymous) 2012-05-19 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
Nope. Back up the thread a bit further.

(Anonymous) 2012-05-19 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
(anon from "no one is Asian" comment)

I probably should have specified but jsyk, that was my first comment in this thread. I am not the anon who said "characters that appear to be white". (I certainly don't think that.)

hth.

(Anonymous) 2012-05-19 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, apologies then, I mistook you for the same anon, and trying to derail the conversation with technicalities.

(Anonymous) 2012-05-19 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
No, not a problem. I should have said "new anon" in my comment.
