Yes.

It was an old money Indian using some of his trust fund to make a hit piece against a popular American cartoon character because some kids called him Apu when he was 12 and he never got over it.
What do you think?

Literal wet blanket who killed a beloved character out of spite. I hope he’s happy

So...it wasn't?

It's almost always about rent seeking. He was probably hoping they'd offer him the job if he raised enough of a stink.

Obviously. Stop asking

No.

There's a whole horde of people who cannot create, they can only destroy. For some reason these people are now kowtowed to as if they matter.

I'll take that as a yes

but doesn't they have to animated by black animators, scripted by negroid authors and aired in africa?

Boobs and vagene

So why is Bart not voiced by a boy? That’s wrong correct? For a woman to do an impression of a young white man?

Die weebshitter, don't be retarded

As it's a white dude, the same people would nominate Idris Elba for the role.

people bullied him using Apu quotes

> "I should get back at the bullies who harassed me. .... No, that would be too hard. I should fight the Simpsons."

Can't wait for his next movie about how Mcdonald's didn't give him any ketchup packets one time.

This is the first picture that showed up when I googled "indian man"

Hes extremely thin skinned and never got over an insult from a bully in school.

He then uses this to try and guilt his way into being a Simpsons writer to help boost his career. The only thing this man is fucking known for is this film and its all hes ever going to be known for.

This. He was also proposing scripts centered around Apu, like Apu becoming CEO of Kwik-E-Mart and rivalling Mr Burns as the richest man in town. He wanted to turn Apu into a power fantasy character voiced by him.

I hope that mans head ends up on a pike

Yes.

You retards
It’s not about whether POC characters are voiced by POC, it’s about HIRING more POC in the first place

Isn't there one of these coming out but about Marge? I remember hearing about "the problem with Marge" a while back but can't find any info on it.

maybe POC should be good voice actors

That explains a lot, actually.

I wonder how long "people of color" has got before it will come be seen as objectionable as "colored people". I'd bet on it taking 5 years, 10 at the most.

>art form with limitless possibilities
>actors can be whoever you need them to be
>some butthurt indian wants this to stop because of his fee fees
>people now actively campaign to create limitations on the artform out of fears of being offensive
The fact their are still Zig Forums posters that give this line of thinking any legitimacy is the greatest disappointment. Zig Forums deserves the ever lowering quality of this industry because of it's blind complacency.

I used to consider myself a liberal before it became the norm to outrage over cartoon voices and boot lick feminists. What the hell happened to the left?

It’s pretty racist of you to call them pieces of crap, user

>What the hell happened to the left?
it's always been this way, you just never paid attention until it was too late.

It's already being slowly replaced by "black and brown" in the US, which I find interesting/potentially worrying because I think blacks are steadily figuring out that latinos/asians are doing better than them and it's only a matter of time before they start coming after us too.

And what if minorities don't want to be voice actors? Should they just be forced into the role because of some random quota? You ever wonder why affirmative action actually harms minorities more than it helps?

You know it's really funny how this guy who talked about stereotypes and racism also represented "anime industry" in a Netflix documentary as if he as a non-Japanese person could ever make anime (Castlevania is not anime, deal with it).

>it's always been this way, you just never paid attention until it was too late.
No it absolutely wasnt, it didnt get insane until 2015 at least thats when i started noticing it
