that's just generally true when someone starts a sentence with 'I'm not ____ but' they will say something that heavily implies they are what they said they aren't |

I'm not racist, but sometimes I silently judge people based on race and then silently berate myself for it.
The quietest lil' racist. |

@441 Yep, you pretty much summed it up.
I once said I prefered Rainbow Dash with a black skin color, and was called a racist. |

I think this is pretty true, mostly when said people say Twilight is the 'wrong race' when she's black and what white Twilight is the 'right race'. |

@Anon875 & @Anon838
You both bring up legitimate points In my opinion "I don't think the colors work well together in this humanization" = Not Racist "I just can't see (insert character) as that type of race" = Racist levels depend on explanation (if any is given) "Her/His personality is unsuitable for that race" = Kinda Racist "Why is (insert character) a nigger/cracker/terrorist (Arab)/gook/kike/etc"= Troll |

Black people are sexy.
But black Twilight Sparkle is fricking ugly. |

I can actually relate to this one but because i'm honestly confused.
Did i miss a brony meeting or something that said that Twilight is black? :l Because she sounds nothing like it. |
| CottonTales #1490940 6 days ago |
@Klonoahedgehog
yes you missed the meeting there was a lot of talking and stuff, there were a few chairs thrown, lives ended, pastries vandalized and it ended with people can make whatever character whatever race they please ...and what are you getting at with she sounds nothing like it? (this is a rhetorical joke question) |

Tara Strong voiced an Indian character in TF:A.
Also, Samurai Jack was voiced by Phil Lamarr. I don't get what's getting all these jimmies rustled. |

The problem with blakk Twilight is that she's not blakk because of realistic diversity but instead because the artist has a blakk quota they need to fill so they can say "look, my characters are not all white, surely that means I am not racist!"
If we assume that the artist wants something like modern America for diversity, then that would mean there should actually be more latinos than blakks (16.3% of US population, compared to 12.6% for blakk people). It's especially bad that they latch onto one character for the blakk quota to the exclusion of others. Something good to ask when you see a blakk Twilight and other characters white is not why Twilight is blakk, but why Rarity and Fluttershy are white. It's the same as most American TV shows. There's a mostly white cast with one or two blakk people thrown in and maybe an asian, but rarely will you see a latino. |

I don't know what it is...but I just see her as black. Its not her voice, her VA, her colours, or her personality or anything....ever since I went to start drawing humanized ponies...I just thought of her as black. |

Because I just don't think it suits. It's like seeing a green Sonic presented as the real Sonic completely straight, I just get that feeling that the color doesn't fit. It just gets me as an attempt to be all "I'm accepting of other races" rather than a actual character interpretation. |

I kinda like black Twilight, changes things up a bit. |
| Saint_Braeburn #1491965 6 days ago |
@Nebbie
That was one of the stupidest comments I have ever read on this site. THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU JUST WROTE! Do you honestly believe that artists draw her black just so they can assure themselves that there not racist? really? "If we assume that the artist wants something like modern America for diversity". Why would we assume that? What reason is there to assume that? On American TV show's its different. Corporate Executives want diversity shoved into the cast for the sake of mass market appeal, visual distinction, complaining Media Watchdogs, or just because. Artists on the Internet do not suffer from that because they are independent. If a character is a certain race it's because the artist associated that character with that race, wanted to to use different colors, or didn't care what race he/she drew them. And it's spelled "black" not "blakk". |

Anyone who claims that they are not racist are lying, everyone is racist to some degree, there´s always some people you can´t stand. |

When I imagine Twilight as a human I imagine her white or somewhat tan. That's just how she shows up in my mind. Couldn't tell you why. |
