like

how is a group of people gonna be a mascot lol

thats just trashy behavior imo

i dont mean the depiction is offensive because its a racist caricature or the word is offensive because its a slur

i mean the act of making a group a mascot is in and of itself offensive

like by who power does the dominant group get to other, dehumanize and trivialize peoples in that way?

we are the exclusive default human norm, the sole users of rational perspective, we assign you to be an icon that animates our gaming, like a character or animal

im not sure you can convince me its not problematic
