As for white favoritism in this fandom itās pretty clear with Sasha. While I have been seeing it die down lately that doesnāt change the fact itās still here. Now Iām well aware that simply liking her character however isnāt bad, but when so many people that havenāt seen the+
show think sheās actually the main character when sheās so far only been in three, thatās an issue. Silencing the praising of other characters to talk about her is something Iāve seen happen a lot also and Iāve even went through it. +
While Iām no expert and if Iām wrong here please correct me, but the three big signs of it to me are
ā¢Saying she has done nothing wrong and downplaying all the stuff she put Anne through
ā¢Silencing others for any reason to talk about her
ā¢Saying Marcy is more toxic than +

her when thereās more evidence against that than for it.
As for the first example Iāve seen it all to much. Jokes aside I mean when people genuinely say what she did wasnāt bad. Not only is it insulting to Anneās character and traumas, real people like me who have gone through+

many things like Anne, but ironically to Sashaās character as well. The whole point is that right now, sheās not healthy and has to get better. But how can you get better when youāre already in the right? Perfect.
You can love her character all you want but taking her toxic+

Now when it comes to silencing others or stopping others to praise her, itās a mixed bag. Some days Iāve seen it happen none stop and the next Iāll see no mention of Sasha on any Marcanne or Marcy or Anne post+

Again itās a mixed bag but it does happen and it gets in the way of what the original posters wish to say. Ex, I posted about Anneās voice actress Brenda Song and instantly the first two comments were about Sasha. Smaller example but it gets the point across+
and itās one I witnessed/experienced.
The simple fact is that if you wanna praise her go ahead but donāt silence others talking about the poc characters to do so.
And oh boy my favorite one. Iāll go ahead and say it, if Sasha was the Chinese character and Marcy was white+

everything here would be sooo different. But thatās not the case so letās focus on reality.
Itās the fact that even after itās been made apparent that Sasha knows what sheās doing, sheās not a healthy friend, and such on. Yet thereās some people hellbent on the idea that+

Marcy is already worse than Sasha in every way even though itās also been made clear thatās not the case. Now yāall know Iām a Marcanne bitch and Iām keeping ships out of this as much as I can so Iām sorry if I come off as biased, but I can make a literal bulletpoint list here+
ā¢āIām guessing you havenāt found a way home either huhā the either showing that she has been looking to get home as well

ā¢Whether or not Anne is around sheās looking for as much info on the box as she can, so much so she read through an entire library to find anything at all

even with it being very clear she wants her to stay. She put herself lower than Anne on her priorities list.
Now this isnāt a Marcy thread so Iāll stop there, but after all of that the fact thereās still people out there that say sheās more toxic than Sasha is concerning+

As someone whoās been through toxic relationships of many kinds I can assure you, Sasha is the unhealthy one.
And this all connects back to the main point here, the white favoritism.

And with that part of the rant done letās talk about the sexualization of minors here. Honestly, itās a lot worse in other places. Like I said in another thread it happens here like once+

a week and we report and move on. But that doesnāt change the fact it does happen and in other places itās a LOT.
We have it easy here, as someone with a deviantart account trust me when I say we have it easy. But if this message can reach others Iāll say it, STOOOP!+

I really donāt understand the need people have to put these minors in situations that are suggestive, or fetishized, or even just straight up sexual.
I know itās an issue that everyone here doesnāt like and I think we need to take it more seriously. We report and scroll past+

but we need to do more. We need to call these people out on their actions, call out the people that support them, and make it known what they do. With this plus the fact itās already low here, it shouldnāt be a very common thing but people like this being deserve to+
be ignored and left to continue what they do. They have to be outed for exposed.
Anyways thatās my rant
In short donāt sexualize minors and donāt silence others to talk about the white girl
