This is specifically about Cecil since I agree Carlos is not white but I typically only see Cecil arguments.

Seeing yourself in other media doesn't mean you don't want to see yourself in your favorite media. It resets with every piece of entertainment. Black people don't call it a win because BET and Tyler Perry exist. Women don't watch Lifetime and decide "You know what, that's a whole channel for women. I don't need a woman in Avengers anymore." Asians outside of Asian countries don't say those countries have them covered and don't want Asians in Western Media. It resets every for every piece of media and expectations change based on the setting and stories of the next piece.



Maybe I'm just too close to this concept. Tiny Fandom. I have a canon ship that are 2 white people and I've had people bitch at me about not shipping two POC characters because "Their stories are so similar. You're obviously racist and against interracial couples." Their "similar story" being one of them dies. Their personalities are completely different. Their physical traits are completely different. How they interact is completely different. Fuck you guys an interracial ship is the most popular ship in the fandom. I just happen to shit out fanart of my ship at an alarming rate so I think people think my ship is disproportionately represented when it reality, other than my art, only 2-3 other pieces exist for them and there's no fanfic.

I mean at this point I believe that people are mad at me for not drawing their ships so they try to shame me into it and that's fucking bullshit. My art is supposed to be fun for /me/, not you. You want me to draw your ships I take paypal. If you're tired of seeing my art blacklist my tags.

So I can't help but believe at least some people are mad that good/prolific artists draw White Cecil and not "their Cecil." So they attempt to shame them into it. That ain't right, and that's how we get the disingenuous people who make characters other races with little research, effort, or soul hoping for buttpats from tumblr.
