Disliking a cultural food is normal, what's not normal is making fun of it. I remember getting mocked for eating snails, while idrc what people like or dislike it. saying stuff like "its disgusting" directly to someone from that culture is just racist and rude
Here’s a debate as a poc I have always found interesting “Is it racist is dislike or hate a food from a culture”

Lame ass rebuttal. You treat superficial fantasy tropes applied to a dominant, well-documented European medieval aesthetic as equivalent to the specific, layered orientalism and racism directed at the Gerudo as a racialized desert “other.”
And I guess hearing the Deku tree speak in simplified old English isn't glottophobia and the spiritual stones opening the door of time wasn't fetichism and the fantasization of medieval European history just wasn't as much of a misrepresentation of a people as the Gerudo were.

Pointing at the Deku Tree’s speech doesn’t erase or balance the distinct pattern it just changes the subject.

White people be like: “I need to be racist to have an excuse for Nintendo’s racism”

I do think Glottophobia, Fetichism, Harmful Story Stereotypes and Orientalism are reasons I can point out 👍🏻
So one of them is a watered down misrepresentation of real cultures fitted into a fantasy setting and the other is also a watered down misrepresentation of real cultures fitted into a fantasy setting except this one is racist for some reason that you can't actually extrapolate

I'm anti-ARABIZATION. not anti-arab as the people, i simply want our cultures to be preserved and not go extinct because of arabization, which is different than wanting arabs to be killed and genocided

Especially because it doesn’t get talked about enough and Spaniards don’t get enough smoke for that either

Its funny how any critique to sexualized designs always results in weirdos being like “so you want them to be in niqabs!?” and like no!?!?!? Thats not what that means
Zelda player would rather turn into Adolf Hitler rather than admit the Gerudos are a racist portrayal of SWANA people

I never played OOT and I always knew Zelda was pretty oeientalist but I never realized it got THIS bad
People ask me why I care about orientalism or put the blame for questioning it on new players, but they never knew how it felt as a kid playing OOT on the N64 to meet a bomb merchant in the desert imitating your people’s accent like it was comedy. 👍🏻

I’m not asking for censorship far from it, but this is really shows how we’re viewed with how every other design got censored but this one (3/3)

Negative depictions of us are never taken into consideration, unlike any other culture because they don’t view us as people worth caring about with our depiction, we’re not even considered people at all (2/3)

They censored every other sexual female design because they’re “too offensive” for a kids game, but when it comes to racist orientalist depictions of west asian culture they never touch it We’re so dehumanized they never even think to consider “is this offensive to us?” (1/3)
She was so happy to look a mess! I don’t know why zelda twt is gagging over that orientalist spill of vomit 😭😭😭

Nintendo censoring the fire temple music on later revisions of OOT because the samples were from the Quran Then in the next 3d game they have a boss shouting Indian or native American tribal noises. Though I'm pretty sure those noises come from a Warner Bros soundboard

the french translator later revealed it was similar in japanese too so it's not just a localization problem it's in the core localizer at least did apologize but ultimately it still leaves a bad mark on og oot

Daily reminder that Amazigh pagan beliefs did not yield to Islam in the 7th century, but the last Amazigh pagan community was genocided by Spain in the 15th-century Canary Islands.
