Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

it was brought to her on the game's hmd and she's claiming that there's no canon proof he doesn't speak spanish and because she grew up in a highly spanish speaking area representation is important to her. that's her justification.

lmao the language her neighborhood speaks has nothing to do with star wars though?? what the fuck

she can either curry for sjw brownie points or rp her character accurately to his goddamn canon. she can't have both if she wants to keep him in a game with, presumably, a rule to "be ic". leave that shit to memes if you have to, jfc

remember this is the same person that (after several attempts because lol all asians look alike rite??) brought us chinese river tam because ~DIVERSITY~ and also chinese people are smrt. she's in this wholly to make herself look wonderful and diverse and accepting so people will lick her asshole and make her feel good about herself.

i think the logic goes that the problem isn't just a lack of representation, it's a lack of representation in actual popular media. it's part of why joan watson in elementary got some people all excited. ditto black hermione.

doesn't make it less au or ooc, obvs. just means she's a better fit for memes and/or tublr.

you're not really gonna find that in any kind of earth-less fantasy. the representation comes from the faces of the actors, not the ethnicity of the characters. which star wars is already making pretty damn big strides with in the recent films. but apparently if the dude isn't a walking talking cultural example mexico, it apparently doesn't count for some people, and that's honestly kind of infuriating.

does she think chirrut and baze speak chinese? how can she not see how offensive this is? just because diego luna is mexican does not mean his space character in a galaxy far far away can speak spanish!
