... I just saw part of a trailer and it took me so long to realize that someone had actually greenlit “okay but what if BLACK PEOPLE had done all the colonialism” and put money behind it...

Making your white Aladdin lightly spicy doesn’t help either. The whole premise is bad.

I feel like I should delve deeper into this at some point, as the basis of the concept (interrogating racial biases) is something I try to do. It’s in Misbehavin’ and undoubtedly will show up in more games and writing.

For context, the trailer.

Doing this thread over time because I need food and coffee. Feel free to mute if you need or want to. This one’s gonna be analytical as well as introspective and I’ll make a buffer tweet when I’m done talking about that trailer.

I gotta watch with sound to write this, ugh...
