exposing fate and eating up the stans toođŸ€ *a thread*
now,when fate first debuted or got announced whateva u wanna call it,everyone including me was very excited negl,winx has been around for so long and therefore making a live action made perfect sense
from there things obviously started going a bit downhill,the cast slowly started getting announced and people were pretty disappointed AS THEY MF SHOULD
we had one release date which never ended up happening,another one which never ended up happening,and now there’s another one chile...this is worse then me and my baldix show 😭
-believe me when I say I don’t even know where to start with this mess-
anyway moving on,THATS ONE thing that made people mad but the rest are worse đŸ€
as you probably know,the auditions were held in the U.K. and me living in London myself it’s very weird...? You won’t get many good actors or actresses from here anyway
since they obviously decided to get irrelevant actresses (except from abi) u can already tell how low budget the series is and how much it’s gonna flop...tf ur gonna pay them with? Fairy dust?đŸ˜čđŸ˜č
with well known actors they can promote the series more,and it’s a bit embarrassing how winx has been around for so many years and their first live action is cheap...low budget or irrelevant actors ? Pick a struggle baby
for a brand new show,less known actors would be alright. But this is a live action of winx,Smth kids and adults have been waiting for and yall really tried to serve us snacks instead of meals...therefore I will gladly not tip đŸ€
-now if that didn’t get u mad enough lemme just carry on😍-
So we all know flora,a girl that’s part of the winx,a latina infact...
winx is made to be diverse,but in fates case they said white,white,white,white,white,black
flora was made to represent latinos. Especially in the 2000s,latinos didn’t get any representation. And when they did,it was in a bad way. Us latina young GIRLS never got to see a powerful woman from our ethnicity on tv shows until winx.
I can’t explain how important it is for kids to see their race/ethnicity growing up on tv shows.I can’t stress it ENOUGH. Seeing characters that are only one race which is always WHITE in every single fucking kids show is what starts self confidence issues from young.
anyway back to flora,they decided to cast a white woman who isn’t even latina as flora. And before those goofy ass toilet seats come in my mentions again saying “her role is TERRA not FLORA” lemme just tell u

nođŸ€
eliot salts role was always flora and as soon as I find the ss to prove it I’ll add it to the thread
now,reason why winx stans attack eliot is because she took a role that wasn’t meant to represent her..? We have enough white characters chill the fuck out
And yes she did know what role and plot line she was auditioning for because no mf producer who’s in charge of a live action won’t ask u if u know the original show and character or not? Yall sound worse than ur little fate the hoe saga show pipe down
did I forget to mention tecna was sirenix kicked out of fate?😍 we should’ve cancelled the show the second that happened
back to flora being whitewashed,terra was called originally flora ofc but they changed her name to not get backlash and yes as soon as I get the ss I’ll include that too
In conclusion,flora was white washed
Moving onto another baddie,musa
from what I’m aware of,musa is Chinese. She was seen wearing Chinese traditional clothing plenty of times so yall don’t pretend u can’t fucking see
Clearly she is not a white woman,but fate AGAIN decided to cast whatever ha name is again idk I don’t want to know idc *not end of thread but I reached the limit*
here are the ss for the eliot salt thing
