Arknights posting

“We are architects, and our job is to provide designs that satisfy the masses.
You will come to understand that this is the greatest challenge you will ever face. Not a design flaw, not a construction problem, but rather something as simple as being persuasive.”

Ayn Rand can eat shit.

In response to posts arguing that non-Native Americans shouldn’t write wendigos

Until Dawn: “A wendigo is a possessing spirit associated with cannibalism.” It’s well-written and fits the story.

Ducktales: “A wendigo is a person utterly consumed by desire and loneliness.” It’s well-written and fits the story.

Arknights: “A wendigo is a member of an ethnic group who look kinda skeletal, have a tradition of funerary cannibalism, and have been horribly discriminated against.” It’s well-written and fits the story.

I’ve never written a wendigo, and I have no particular interest in doing so. But I don’t think any of these writers did anything immoral or destructive. I saw an actual fucking post arguing that writing about wendigos contributes to Native Americans not having their human rights respected, and I refuse to believe Arknights is responsible for abuse by cops.
