Poll of the Day > I got banned from Reset Era...

(+) Yeah! (+)

Basically there was about Overwatch fans disappointed that there are no black women heroes. It was an overreaction and the vocal fans pretty much demand a black woman hero (which is different from asking for a black woman character).

I posted that this is basically an outrage and Overwatch has a lot of diversity as is, which it does. And I'm sure they'll continue adding a more diverse cast of heroes.

Truth is, Blizzard can't create a hero for every race/ethnic group. In fact, tons of groups of people are never represented in video games or in general. At least the black community has quite a few video game characters, leading roles in movies, etc. What about Filipinos? What about Native Americans? What about non-stereotypical Middle Easterns? What about Pacific Islanders? (such as Tongans and Samoans) I can go on and on. None of these groups ever make demands or anything like this on social media.

I've noticed this happening a lot and I think it is unfair for all of the races and ethnicities that are never represented.

Anyways, I got banned for apparently dismissing concerns about representation. It's only for a few days but fuck that, I'm closing my account. I was banned for no real reason at all and I wasn't dismissing representations at all. I did the opposite. I did not receive a warning either. I knew Reset Era was very harsh on banning and I suspected my post was going to get me a temporary ban, but I simply had to state my opinion. But nope, I must follow what everyone else is saying if not I'll get banned. I can definitely see why so many people hate the Reset Community. I mostly go there because the latest gaming news pops up there.

I've always seen the higher class shown to look more middle eastern. But I wasn't alive back then so IDK. I mean is black Adam in DC comics black? (His home country is heavily based on Egypt) Egypt is close enough to the middle East I'm sure there was some there anyways.

Egyptian = Arab

But there are Egyptians that are black.

Just like there are Black Hispanics.

More like I don't know why people hate black people, they just look different.

Like, why aren't there people who just obsessively hate Asian people?

There are unfortunately

And a lot of extreme left wing racists that attack caucasians over white privelage are starting to go after Asian people too now simply because in a general sense Asian families are fairly affluent in the US

Some universities have actually buckled and are requiring Asian applicants to have higher SAT scores than people of other races because they generally test well and people were complaining that there were too many Asian students and there needed to be more diversity on campus

All Asian people? Or are you talking about specific Asians?
