-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

"asian" at least makes some sense since the features you think of are mostly found in that one area, but "black" and "white" are completely fucking useless. The terms are neither fully based on skin colour nor just about where someone is from, it's utterly arbitrary whether someone is black or white.
Like "black" seems to basically just means afro-american, and "white" somehow includes spaniards but not japanese people, so what the fuck is even the point
it's such a fucking anglo thing to categorize people like this.
