I’m 100% convinced there is more evidence for the existence of #Transracialism than evidence for Transgenderism.

And no, I’m not joking or trolling. I truly believe this.

I’ve yet to hear a single reason as to why transgenderism exists that wouldn’t apply to transracialism.

Yet, I’ve come across many reasons why race is, (at least partially), a social construct or dependent on self-identification. Reasons which wouldn’t apply to transgenderism.

Honest question…

Why is race-swapping characters always from White to Black?

I never hear,
“Make Batman Japanese.”
“Make Spider-Man Arab.”
“Make James Bond Indian.”

This was suppose to be about “more representation”, but sorry, I’m not seeing it. “Superman Reboot with a Black Clark Kent.”

“Professor X is rumored to be played by a black actor.”

“A black Magneto would be brilliant.”

“14 Black actors who could be the next James Bond.”

…”Diversity” doesn’t seem very diverse to me?

WHY IS THE MODERATE COUNTRY OF #CHILE TORN BETWEEN ULTRA LEFT WING AND ULTRA RIGHT WING PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES?

LALO EXPLAINS. Image In general, #Chile is not a country that votes to extremes. Prior to these elections Chileans elected center left Michelle Bachelet, and center right Sebastián Piñera. Though some might disagree, their politics are very moderate and their parties are in the center. Image

What’s going on there? Ummmmm it’s obviously some cleaning company taking photos for their website. What’s the issue?

And why is that guy so angry? Cleaning workers have ALWAYS had to dress like that. They work with strong toxic chemicals that are harmful to their eyes and skin. I used to work occasionally as a photographer and had people pose doing something in public. I wasn’t aware that this is so controversial for some people that they’d get outraged over.

Do people think this is proof of some sort of conspiracy? LOL
