Someone explain to me how the inherent nature of diversity is good for animation

Problem with a lot of modern day diversity is that it's a lot of second-generation born immigrants who, culturally, are indistinguishable from an American kid's lifestyle except that their dinners were different and maybe their parents spoke another language around them sometimes. It's no longer the 90's where diversity meant experiencing other cultures, now it just means, "I want a brown protagonist who says they're from (here)".

Anne Boonchuy (Amphibia), Luz Noceda (Owl House), and Marco Diaz (Star Vs) are just generic kid characters except throw in one thing to show off their heritage. Anne cooks some food, Luz says some Spanish, Marco celebrates one Mexican holiday. Their heritage does not have to be a massive part of their character, but it's really insulting that executives think this passes off for "diversity" when all it is is just more American protagonists in cartoons who all act the fucking same.

Victor & Valentino isn't a great show, but at least it's trying to be something different with its fantasy world designs.

we already have excessively violent media fren

>it's a lot of second-generation born from immigrants*

If you treat another race or gender differently, even if it's in a positive way, you're a racist. You're giving special privileges to a group of people based on the color of their skin or what's in between their legs. You remove the possibilities for equality, for growth. Progressives have simply replaced one gifted class for another.

That's not what racist means anymore, faggot.

Well there's a lot of second generation immigrants living in america now, I'm one of them myself. Honestly I see no problem with someone writing something based on their own experiences as one as long as they aren't like "OMG THIS SHOW HAS A MEXICAN PROTAGONIST THAT'S WHY YOU NEED TO WATCH IT". Just make a compelling story.

Yes, but "life is x" isn't a sufficient reason.

If their definition of a word can be changed this easily, they don't really care about the issue.

>they aren't like...
But that's the problem is that they are. Those characters count towards the ultimate goal of "more diversity in cartoons", but I feel like it's faux diversity. It's just more American cartoons starring American kids doing culturally American things and then once in awhile they throw on a sombrero or serve a non-American dish.

There's not actually more diversity in animation, because it would be great if there was. There's so much other art and mythology to take influence from in the world but all showrunners want to do now-a-days, it seems, is make a brown or gay character in their anime-inspired show about depression and romance.

True, I think a better reasoning is that we live in an age where we can connect with almost anyone from any background from around the world. Information about other cultures is at our fingertips, and so are primary sources thanks to social media. There's so many cool things about non western countries out there (including eastern european ones that sjws love to ignore) that I want to see in more fictional media but sadly minorities get designated to be soulless shilling.
Their problem is that they focus on the money and fame they can get from faux diversity rather than their actual passion and love for a non american culture. Also I'm so fucking sick of le ebin depression shows at this point, why does that keep happening

>2 are from the same show and one is a comic
>animation
Let's play game. How many times has op picture been forced on Zig Forums?

>2 are from the same show
How does that disqualify it from being something from animation?

What's diverse about this they all look the same

Modern animators only want to remake their animes but with funny looking brown people

Shep from SU is basically a Non-Entity that was there to show the audience how Steven doesn't want things to change.
I don't know who the blue haired chick is or the context of her quote, the grammar and wording of that panel just seems weird and could probably be changed to flow better.
Chloe is tying up loose ends
Brunzetta was a fun addition to the cast, Marco was gone for over 16 years, he obviously must have met some people, and it was fun to see star being a fan of big muscles.

Gives you more variety to look at.
I mean diverse art styles was one of the big selling point for The Amazing World of Gumball.

Brainwashed people think diverse means non-white

ding ding ding
wrong
the answer is 9 times. all of which have very copypasty posts that follow it
if i only i found track the amount of times westerns with an " * " replacing the e and ameriamuts has been said in the exact same post replying to the op, i know its one very autistic person.

if it's what the writer wants then it's his/her problem
>So we should star more cartoons with less humans?
We already do, We Bare Bears was that

Did you reply to the wrong post, guy?

I watch animation to get away from life
