I
used to think the idea of aliens having human zoos was horrifying but
honestly if a bunch of aliens want to watch me sit and watch Netflix all
day in a cozy little environment where I don’t have to pay for rent or
food and they have human-specialist doctors on hand as needed, IDK,
like. I’d be all right with it.
white ppl: lol human zoos?? what a crazy made up concept! sounds fun! sign me up! lmao
I don’t know who said it goes but pretty much someone said that the reason a lot of shit in “Sci-Fi” is terrifying to white people is because it’s taking all the evil shit they’ve done to People of Color and show it happening to White people as well they just jazz it up to make it futuristic/alien.
Forced sterilization/Governmental control over Births, Eugenics, human zoos, extermination of humanity, chattel slavery, human breeders, poisoned evironments/foods, indoctrination, etc.
We all can think of at least on form of Sci-Fi media where that happens and if you google any of those with mention Sci-Fi you’ll get straight up examples of these happening to PoC in real life.
me: Princess Zelda’s a pretty cool character and is way more than just a damsel in distress.
some nerd: source????

Didn’t do shit in Link’s awakening though
This post has over 50 thousand notes and this is the most baffling response to it I have ever seen.
Yes, Zelda didn’t do anything in a game that she was not in. You fucking got me. In other news, Mario is a bad character because he didn’t do shit in Metroid Prime.
Pikachu is a bad pokemon because he didn’t help sonic in sonic adventure
