Mod Post Deedee: Ugh.... Sigh

So instead of reblogging and raging, I’d like to make the followers aware of Two new “Pro” whitewashing blogs that are out there.
Damn Lay Off The Tan
and
White Wash Power
The latter actually submitted a whitewashed picture of Korra to us, saying “I cleansed that doo doo mud brown off her skin :) praise me for it”

LOK Review: Episode 1 Part 1 of ?
puzzlegirlsandpoprocks:
Episodes one starts with the White Lotus members coming to Korra’s home when she was a child. She shows great bending skill even as a toddler. From a child it is easy to see she has been defined both by herself and those around has as a bender and the avatar.
Her flaw as the Avatar is set up early in the story as she lacks physical restraint, seriousness and has little...

I have one question.
sleeeepy:
Just one question. Never mind excellent questions like “When is Korra ever going to learn a hard lesson and have the chance to really work to earn something?” or “When is Mako going to really confront Asami about his feelings for Korra?” or “Is Bolin REALLY going to become more than just comic relief?” or “When is Asami finally going to be recognized for everything she’s done despite...
sdgdfhgsdbg asked: Hello. I just took over this group as the new admin, and I've been going through and unwhitewashing our characters to the best of my ability. The biggest problem is that we can't change the taken characters without their permission. The reason why I'm bothering you is because our Katara has agreed to help us change her face. When we do that, we can change Sokka as well. We're...

deadelegant-deactivated20130323 asked: This blog is amazing *_* , also what is your opinion of people who claim that Suki from ATLA is White (she's not White)?
Deedee: Mod Announcement.
Talking a little break from KINT for a while. Not long, just to get my own life and other important matters that come before this blog in order.
I need to also get my mind chill on. Every time I see a message pop up, I feel a tightness in my chest because I just “know” it’s racist ass bullshit that I’m not in the mood for. That’s not a healthy feeling.
So ya, not...
16-spring-snakes-in-a-nut-can asked: According to my physics book, white is the combination of all the colors of the light spectrum. ;)
tanalilt asked: So. Honest question. I'm totally in agreement that there is a whitewashing problem in the Korra fandom. But I want to ask your opinion. Would you consider Korra (and the rest of the Water Tribe, for that matter) to be black, or Inuit? I saw in your FAQ that you said black - but I've always considered the Water Tribe to be Inuit, given that they are based off of the culture, much like the...
Yeah, it's been fun:

blacktmblrconfessions:
crankycritic:
But I’m really not going to continue to blog/advocate on a website created by a white racist shitstain on the underwear of humanity.
It doesn’t sit right with me. To type out a weighted, racist word while simultaneously asking a weighted, racist question? All while I’ve got racist messages piling up in my inbox, and a blogger...

Deal With It!: why
firelord-derp:
Are people already fussing about people “whitewashing” amon i know whitewashing is a serious issue *m. night shyamalan* and is in a lot of art now a days but seriously
That’s from the new game on nick, I mean, come one. I seriously do understand the issue of…
honey sweetie sugar plum i dont think you cant whitewash a character...
booty-kun asked: Sorry I don't like reblogging over and over again. I see what you mean it really is frustrating when there's so much white washed images and people trying to turn everyone white. Like with Korra, Katara, Sokka, Yue. I'm just saying that a lot of people are getting called out on "whitewashing" Amon when Amon's skin is white. Lol at the "white tears" sometimes...

That’s from the new game on nick, I mean, come one. I seriously do understand the issue of whitewashing and it pisses me off when people do it. But please stop attacking people for whitewashing that they’re...
Deedee: If anyone sent any messages or submitions...
I accidentally deleted them.
whatimpropriety asked: So my basic ass was going through reading your whole blog (because this shit is AMAZING) and I saw you wondering where the "Bitch, sit down!" GIF was from. I don't know if anyone's responded already since it was like a month ago, but it comes from Jonté's "Ya Rude" music video. (If someone's already said then ignore me, lmao.)
scarlet-himee asked: oh okay, thanks for telling me. i uploaded the original image without the lighting to prove i wasnt whitewashing anything. honestly, im not that light skinned. my skin just looks pale in either sunlight or when i take a photo with flash. i know what you mean by that, constantly when i walk around my neighborhood other asians call me chineese and start with the 'ching chong' stuff.even...
scarlet-himee asked: thats your opinion not mine. what is POC and lastly "Get over yourself and understand what you did was wrong" what i did was wrong? okay so you're stating that by drawing a fan art of something you like in your drawing style and replying to a hurtful comment is wrong. drawing something you like is not wrong. get over yourself.
scarlet-himee asked: I get it with the not using rape as a casual word and all so sorry if that offended you in any way. However, stop hating on peoples art. how would you like it if I reblogged one of your time (and effort) consuming post with hate comments. Anyways, i KNOW shes brown, jeez I'm not retarded, its lighting effects to match with the background that hasn't been drawn yet. and no I'm not...

alltsunandnodere asked: oh oh shit i actually understand what your getting at. okay yeah. thats not quite right. i actually wanted to re-direct you to a specific post. since sending links is a pain so i'll paraphrase: basicly they are talking about how there is no suck thing as black or white ect ect. since the world korra is from isn't in any way our world. there are no white europeans ect ect. korra...

alltsunandnodere asked: people put on bonzer anyway. to you know. tan and stuff. a safer way to tan than let your skin cells die in the sun. is that racist aswell?
smallpuppy asked: I love how straight-forward you are. PoC are already underrated in cartoons as it is! Keep it real, as it always should be.
