Look at gamergate forums or on x and they are thousands of people mad about rockstar going “woke” so no its not a “moral panic”. Hate people in this thread pretending racism doesn’t exist because their bubbles are successfully purged of it that’s good but the racism is still there and say your low tech friend who games causally and uses x or facebook or reddit will see it.
Do you have any earthly idea how many of those “people” are bots now? Let yourself get worked-up by engagement-bait if you insist, but no-one-else is obligated to check-out places that are well-known for being places one goes to piss-off others or find something to get pissed-off about. Your “hobby” of engaging with and spreading it without substantiation vs reality doesn’t make you “more aware”, it just makes you part of the problem.
You’re literally promoting specific fan-art, spreading it far beyond what it ever would have reached otherwise, in your efforts to “end” racism. If anyone’s watering down existing racism, its you and people who act as you do.

Okay then don’t downplay existing racism because you successfully avoid it. That’s helping no one end racism.
