@guest It's not about being a politically correct SJW or whichever buzzword people like to use these days. Lion King is set in Africa, therefore it is FACTUALLY correct for them to be black. Smh so many people confuse political and factual correctness.
Political correctness would be like saying "There should be more minorities in Brave so people of colour don't feel left out." Factual correctness is saying "Nuh uh, it's set in medieval Scotland, and Scottish people are pretty fucking white, especially back in the middle ages where intercotinental migration was pretty nonexistent." This is the same case. Most people in Africa are black, which is not PC, it's a FACT.
@creativedragonbaby Their fur is yellow, so according to your logic they should be Asian?
No, their skin colour is the same tone. What's racist is you assuming that they should be a specific race depending on their skin colour. If an African person has a kid with a British person, and their skin is a light brown and you assume they're Mexican or something, what are you going to do?
No I replied to your comment which said that the picture above "matches the color of their fur". You were the one assuming that they should be white because of their fur, I just pointed out that their fur is yellow so it actually doesn't match.
@creativedragonbaby Oh so NOW you're saying that lions are yellow-ish? After making a comment that them being depicted as white "matches the color of their fur"? After I called you out on it and you said I was racist?
They live in Africa, they should be black. That's it. Factually correct and we don't have to argue about political correctness.
I compared the colours of both entities and they are similar in shade. You are saying that they should be coloured based on where they are from, which is fine, but not what the artist did.
This is cool
