“B-but the author-” Idc. The whole point is that people are obviously biased in this “race accuracy” bullshit. If the opposite happened we all know that there would be millions of posts about how wrong the author/casting director was for it.

@EnjoyerFive Wait they’re doing another Percy Jackson?

@Wolfman98002015 It's a series instead of a movie this time.

@EnjoyerFive Flat-out open racism.

@EnjoyerFive Well, two different jokes to make, not three because annabeth is a ginger. Is this payment for making Holly from Artemis fowl white?

@EnjoyerFive ya'll havn't realised it's just black ethno-narcissism if not outright nationalism yet? 🥱 black good yt bad, that's all there is to it in their mind.

@EnjoyerFive I can only wonder how many of these kids are even aware of Hazel... doubt they've read that far...

@EnjoyerFive Disney had to 1up the defilement of Artemis Foul, huh?

@EnjoyerFive I do the sane thing with the diversity quota they have. Holywood: Let's tick boxes here people. White man bad remember. Me: How about autism for the hero since you're looking at diversity and inclusion Hollywood:....

@EnjoyerFive We was Greeks.

@EnjoyerFive Wait I know they’d tokenize one but two of the main 3 have been tokenized for the new Percy Jackson? FUCK THAT

@EnjoyerFive "So what if this group of beloved recognizable characters were all originally white, its okay to raceswap them, why are you afraid of seeing minorities" - Says the type that'll have a panic attack at the sight of more than 2 white people occupying the same space.

@EnjoyerFive wait Rick Riordan decided to cast Annabeth as black?Considering there are a lot of black Demigods, why do that?

@EnjoyerFive I never understood the "this person is not dark enough" argument. Like isn't that racist?

@EnjoyerFive "America Chavez is too light-skinned!" *turns on Mexican telenovella with no one darker than an Alaskan Albino*

@EnjoyerFive 1. Any character who isn't white was made mostly because of representation hence why whitewashing would be different than blackwashing. 2. The actors are chosen via personality not looks which means y'all care about the characters looks than personality

@EnjoyerFive ngl the casting really makes me not interested in watching the series any longer, i just want to see our original trio. idec if grover's indian here, but at least get accurate looking annabeth, she was supposed to look like a typical cali girl.

@EnjoyerFive If you have to turn a pre existing character gay or black in the name of inclusivity, that’s not inclusivity, that’s tokenism
