People are not happy about Fantastic Beast's lack of diversity, especially since JK Rowling is a major proponent of it where she changes the skin color of her characters

>People

I feel like you people search out these stories just to have something to be angry about.

fucking this, if i wanted to be just as whiny as the shits in that article i'd read that site

It's New York in 1915 what do they want

>they didn't black wash 1915 New York

I will alert my state senator

>this
These people demand diversity in place of historical accuracy. It's ludicrous. We don't complain about there not being enough white people playing slaves in movies about black slaves because that would be fucking stupid.

>lets ignore history in favour of appeasing diversity quotas

They got their token black in the movie in a way that half-way made sense, what do they want?

And the pendulum will keep on swinging so hard and so fast that you'll get sick of living in an Aryan ethnostate! Believe me. Ethnic cleansing--big league!

haha i'm gonna post this on r/Sup Forums

This is a really interesting video with kind of shit audio, but basically his study seems to suggest that SJWs are autistic and have a tendency to seek out order and perfection. They conflate equity (equal outcome) with equality (equal opportunity), so when movies aren't perfect little rainbows for a VARIETY of reasons, they ascertain that the only reason is lack of equality or opportunity. This is why they push to retool what they deem as failed products where equity isn't reached. It's marxism. It relies on imposing a very rigid belief system over every aspect of society and retooling, removing or silencing individuals who don't agree or see the complexity of the systems that make up society. This is why so many SJWs are also socialist bernouts. They apply the same formula. They see inequality in wealth and because white males have more gross income, "white privilege" happens. Ofcourse they ignore asian privilege, but that's because asians make more money due to culturally imposed strict parenting and education and it contradicts their systems of oppression beliefs.

Imaginary animals were more important to the story than imaginary genders.

great audio

This kind of thing is the perfect example of how entitled this new generation is. They think art should cater towards them instead of going out and finding art that doesn't trigger them. Whiny retards.

its ~1927 dude

YEAH BECAUSE BACK IN THE 1920S THERE WAS MAGIC AND MAGICAL BEASTS FUCK OFF

Well I'm particularly happy Jk rowling is being called out on this, because she is a huge cunt of an SJW, and then produces/writes her own project with zero diversity. I hope she is eaten alive by her own

How is she a SJW?

Because she isn't actively racist? Because she had like one gay character in her books and didn't make it a plot point?

Because she made such radical statements like slavery is bad, and hating someone for how they are born is narrow-minded?

Yeah, she really was waving that SJW flag there user.

So are the 2010s just going to be about a bunch of mostly white betas complaining that every movie lacks diversity?

Everyone that isn't a racist or doesn't hate women is a SJW now

The main cast are

One Autistic red headed British person
One fat polish baker
One nerdy Jewish investigator
Her slutty Jewish sister
President of magic is a black women
Bad guy is Farrell/Depp as a white man

What the fuck is the problem?

you didnt see how she changed hermiones skin color to be black and then she threw a fit when her fan called her out on how she was never meant to be black

Jews are white, just like italians

Shes not an SJW but she sucks at writing and caves into the demands of her loudest fans (who happen to be SJWs).

>Writes character
>Fan theory says said character is gay, can you confirm JK?
>Y-Yeah finally someone noticed

>Never describes character in 7 books properly
>JK some fans said this is because said character is really black, is this true?"
>O-Of course!


Its pretty pathetic desu

That kind of this doesn't matter as much in a play though user. Men play women and women play men all the time. I never understood why that was a big deal.

>How is she a SJW?
She really is turbo tumblr. go search it yourself you faggot, google is a click away.

How can you all care this much about a fucking book and movie series intended for twelve-year-olds?

Did they get enough historically accurate dragons in though?

When are people going to realize that unless it's Will Smith, niggers ain't going to make massive block busters. Producers want white, because white is what sells.

She didn't change her skin color. She simply cast a black actress to play her in a one off play that has no effect on any of the books or films.

She didn't do that, they just cast a black actress.

She was fine with that (she didn't cast the people) and didn't see why it was a big deal.

Honestly it isn't. Cursed Child isn't canon in my mind, so they can do whatever the fuck they want. She is right that technically in the books Hermione's race was never specified.

...people who made a big deal about it (on both sides) were stupid. If someone's race isn't a big part of their character, I just care about if they can pull it off.

My eight-year-old just asked me, "why can't black people be wizards?" Then I had to tell her that state-sponsored death squads are going to come for her in the night, and now she's crying. Welcome to Trump's America...

The whole of Harry Potter is bad "racially pure" versus good "mixed".

Harry Potter himself is being paired with 1. Asian girl, 2. African girl, 3. Indian girl, 4. African girl again, 5. Ginger.

Why would film companies cater to the minorities when they can make more money catering to the majority? Diversity in movies is just a bad business practice.

You know what really ticked me off? It makes perfect sense for a black woman to be in a position of power in an American magic community because voodoo is a matriarchal religion. And I know that's what someone had in mind for her because she always wore turbans. But then some fucking clown dropped the ball and cast a woman with no hint of a creole accent.

It could have been a cool touch that made sense and fit in with the setting but instead she's just a stupid piece of diversity box checking.

they might look a certain way, but maybe they identify as other races?

Diversity means anti-white

it's also a play, they do shit like this all the time, plays have had a history of doing this

Exactly.
It seems only Will Smith can pull in the white crowd, him and The Rock.

>swarthy = black

stupid niggers

>1920s England
>"Where are all the muslim refugees?!"

>rather than actually make points and expose myself as overreacting, I'll send you off to look at random fake news articles and blog posts

If I search "JK Rowling SJW" of course I'll get google hits claiming she is an SJW. That's how google works, you can find any side of any argument there.

what is it like to be constantly offended? i'm a white guy so I wouldn't know

Yes. Pull this on them. What a bunch of bigots. Can't accept that they're all black on the inside.

Because white power that's why

>>Honestly it isn't. Cursed Child isn't canon in my mind, so they can do whatever the fuck they want. She is right that technically in the books Hermione's race was never specified.

In her original drawings and all the cover arts she was shown to be white

You know, you can simply visit her twitter instead of trying to be smart on the internet.

It's not even in England, this one takes place in New York in the 1920's or 30's.

well the president of the thing was a nigger female and she ruined everything

No, it's "people who believe racial purity is superior" vs "people who don't give a shit".

Ron is a pureblood, as are the rest of the Weasleys . Harry's father is. Plenty of others are as well that aren't dicks.

Also, not the point... but Harry only was paired with an Cho and then Ginny. That's all that happened, random movie additions for 5 seconds don't count.

Especially because american black women are mentally ill

>She is right that technically in the books Hermione's race was never specified.
Hermione was said to blush, have you ever seen a blushing nigger?

Most of American women are mentally ill.

It's theatre. There have been many cases of men playing women, women playing men, blacks playing whites and whites playing blacks, Harry Potter or not.

I can't believe these shitlords just assumed the actors' races without asking them. Fucking bigots.

>not diverse enough
>literally the President of all magic in America is a black lady even though its in the 1920s and everyone should by all accounts be racist as fuck

These are the kinds of people that would watch a documentary about vikings and ask why they didn't hire any black or asian actors

...

Are black people avatars of feces?

Yeah, I've done that.

Most of the stuff falls under the "basic rejections of racism and ultra-nationalism" that only Sup Forums would consider SJW worthy.

Most normal folks would agree with everything I've seen her post.

how have you not figured out this fucking shit site is the tumblr for alt right faggots to just bitch about everything like tumblr bitches about white people and everything else

Most of the non-ghetto black women I've know have been cool as fuck.

>I hate white people and I want Soros to exterminate them
is what you're trying to say.

Why were all the slaves in this played by black people? I'm so sick of all this blackwashing. Where are the white people? I don't feel represented.

Hey, I'd take dark skin for the human race if I could get rid of the stereotypes and stuff. Melanoma sucks.

Yeah, just not if their skin is very dark.

>what is internal-consistency?

Just because fantastical elements exist in a narrative, that doesn't mean logic goes out the fucking window, retards.

>hire the best people you can
>YOU DIDN'T HIRE COLOREDS OR WOMEN YOU'RE RACIST/SEXIST
wat
would they also bitch if the cast was 100% chinese/black mixed women, because that doesn't fairly represent how America is 49% male, 13% nigger, 6% spic, etc.?

...

Honestly the bigger issue here isn't that she was black. It's that she was fucking hideous. Hermione is supposed to be pretty.

>She is right that technically in the books Hermione's race was never specified.
Well when you have to give the okay for your cover art, and Hermione, Harry and Ron are depicted as white, that seems to be the go ahead that she is white
if she was black from the start that would be one thing, I wouldn't have had a crush on her in the books, but she wasn't. it's black washing.

>Retconning character to try to be politically correct

Hermione's daughter was described as having red hair like her father. How many fucking black kids do you know have red hair?

This honestly makes sense.

In 10 years when being a Liberal retard is no longer in vogue, I'm betting we're going to see a slew of psychology studies indicating a link between constantly being offended and mental-illness.

It's not about equality. It's all about Social Justice. Getting back at the white man for the things we didn't do because we weren't even fucking alive when they happened.

Because it's an existing white character. Stop appropriating white culture nigger.

hahahahha that is actually a decent idea too, fucking injuns getting mad for no reason

Alright there Sup Forums

I know we live in a post-fact world, but just saying "look at her stuff" or giving generalizations without actually pointing out her radical nature doesn't do much for me.

I don't see anything on her page other than base-line liberalism. I know that's toxic for some people, but can you even point to one tweet that she said where she goes radical SJW?

Because I'm just not seeing it.

this

>Leave black hermione to me

The movie was awesome.

Maybe you should look up definition of liberalism first, before embarrassing yourself.

Cursed Child isn't canon. Also, it's a play. Hermione could have been played by a guy and it would still work.

How do you grow up speaking ebonics and still manage to pronounce the spells right? It's not expelliarmits, it's not avada cadavers y'all.

...

>fucking injuns getting mad for no reason

>implying it wasn't white people getting mad for them

>She is right that technically in the books Hermione's race was never specified.

Must be an albino nigger.

What mind set does it take to filter literally every single thing you see, hear, experience, think about, through a "race" checklist?
To not be able to enjoy something as it is, to have to check off a mental list of things before you're able to enjoy it. To ignore the first 20 minutes of a movie because you're counting the female:male ratio, trying to spot a black person and how many lines they get

Are the natives the ones mad, though? Or is it the usual white folks?

DELETE THIS

Why did she write something that isn't canon? That's weird, why even call it Harry Potter then?

...

>being this deep in denial

this is hilariously what Sup Forums and Sup Forums does too, only on the opposite end of the spectrum

they bitch every time a woman or a black guy is in a movie now

Hermoine isn't supposed to be pretty, in the books she has buck teeth and described as being plain. Ginny on the otherhand was supposed to be attractive.

They just fucked up on casting. Emma grew up to be better looking than the girl who played Ginny.

How dumb are you? It's clearly a situation where she's pale with fright or something. It would make absolutely no sense to randomly specify that she's white in that passage.

>Injuns

Surely you mean white college aged liberals right?

She was the best actress though, why does her race matter?

It's a play. People portray other genders/races all the time. If it's done respectfully it's no big deal really, only reason black face is a faux pas is because we were really racist about it for decades (just like how the swastika no longer is a lucky symbol).

Hermione's race never was a focus of her character.

I hate reading that chapter, it's so stressful. In my head it is non-canon and doesn't count. Hermione is a nigress

Well it the other end, the ones that count women and blacks is actually having an effect on the world. Is is now literally illegal to not hire a certain amount of people of a certain gender or color, and it's never illegal to not hire a white man. They're changing actual laws

JK Rowling is a hack and it's obvious she doesn't believe the SJW shit she spews

It's a play. There is no "canon" in plays. Any actor can play any role basically.

You cannot explain this away. Show me one black person with a white horrified face. This is the internet, I trust you can do it. I'll be here waiting

Please, show me a picture of a nigger who turned white from fear.

Rowling outright said that Hermione could be rewritten from the start to have been black all along, directly contradicting her own writing.

How can a black woman be pale with fright?
