I find it really amusing that the kids have come up with the concept of "coded" characters. It's like they don't understand that being a minority of some kind doesn't preclude you from relating to the more or less universal phenomena depicted in popular art, like bro fucking Goku is not "black coded" because he didn't know his dad and grew up fighting he's a fuckin cartoon drawn by a Japanese guy who was trying to rip off Journey to the West he was not thinking about the temporal conditions of black life in the US.

Toriyama was not trying to rip off nothing he was directly referencing and homaging a shitload of stuff. Holy fucking balls the irony of a post advocating for a more broad understanding of art also saying something that so deeply misunderstands the creative process fuck you and your shitty post

It's not kids who came up with it.
It's adults.

>Bill Clinton was black
>Quinten Tarantino claimed to be blacker than Spike Lee
>Goku/Piccolo are black
It's nothing new. Somewhere along the line anti-racism lost the plot and just became broil everything down to stereotypes while claiming its not racist. I don't know if people are just getting stupider or more racist as I age or both.

Or maybe your tolerance for absurdity has declined.
Mine has declined for a long time

Marx is black coded

white cishet male coded thread

"coding" was a real thing especially at disney, it's how writers managed to sneak in gay shit past the internal disney censors, and also it's an easy way to add nuance to a character without doing much in the text, the viewer fills in the blanks given a few character idiosyncracies (gestures, accents, mannerisms)

so coded means some very intentional decision by the author and not some "media literacy" twitter bullshit

Goku Black coded this thread

My ass is fart coded.

>>692855
So true!

Biden era Trump is black coded
Bro got unjustly persecuted by the bourgeois state, has 5 baby mammas and got shot all the time by people who cant handle his drip

Goku being black coded is from racist white kids trolling epic style

Black people all know Piccolo is black.

> and not some "media literacy" twitter bullshit
I mean since "coding" implies that the viewer is "decoding" these signals it is very much media literacy twitter bullshit

>>692939
Media literacy to internet morons pretty much means "blindly agreeing with everything the author spouts" rather than simply "understanding the context of a work".
