1. Stop donating. It’s a volunteer organization so boycotting doesn’t hurt them financially, donations do. It’s a running joke in fandom how quickly the goal is met two, three times over whenever donations are asked for; the joke needs to stop running. Your money will endorse an organization that condones genocide.
2. Contact AO3 Support and Feedback and OTW’s Contact Us to voice your displeasure against this. It’s hypocritical of them to rally against censorship, then proceed to the same.
3. Spread the word. I’ll put my message under the cut as a template of sorts.
It is disheartening to see an organization often lauded for its staunch stance on censorship turn face and commit the same act they spent years condemning. Is it the proper labeling of Israel as an oppressive colonial state that bothers you, or is it your apathy towards Palestinians being ethnically cleansed that made you fire a volunteer for their vocal support of Palestine. Despite what this organizations claims, “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free” is not antisemitic; the phrase calls for the liberation of Palestine and for the corresponding land to belong in rightful hands. Shame on you for choosing the side of colonialism. Ao3 was a beacon for many, and now it’s tainted. Congratulations, OTW, you’ve transformed from an organization for creative expression to one that condones the brutal deaths of innocents.
Listen I’m not a furry, but they make a compelling argument that frankly I cannot ignore.
THEY HAVE SO MUCH CHEMISTRY OMGGGG 💞💞💞💞
the nastiest thing about the breonna taylor decision is you can tell there was some fucking cost-benefit analysis that went into the decision. they started preparing for how to crack down on civil unrest before the decision was even announced, which tells me that they had a choice between accountability and spending the foreseeable future beating protestors in the streets. they obviously thought the latter was preferable to letting even one officer take responsibility for murdering an innocent woman in cold blood. what sucks even more to me is probably how easily they made that decision. it’s like our public services are only accountable to capital, and not the public, or something
as a chinese person, the number of white-people made aus of monkie kid make me incredibly uncomfortable,,,
i’d be happy to explain the cultural significance of sun wukong in an asian context! but for now, i’d just like to say that the characters like sun wukong are very much integral to our culture and making aus to put them in a white context (ie pirates of the carribbean) is an incredibly disrespectful take, not to mention incredibly ignorant
some of the gods in jttw and monkie kid are still being worshipped today, much like in my family and my friends’ families so i ask that you also don’t include them unless you have done proper research or made by an asian who has made the au
and please please please don’t ignore asian voices. like this is one of the few things that are empowering us in media and to have that taken away and fetishized is so hurtful
white and non asian poc are free to reblog
James Cathcart, the current VA for James and Meowth, along with several other characters for the dub, is retiring from voice acting due to being diagnosed with cancer. (The other most well-known VA was Maddie Blaustein for Meowth, a trans woman, and Eric Stuart was the previous VA of James. He's always been Gary tho.)
It's mentioned to be advanced, with surgery not currently being an option due to the size and location of the tumor. (It's mentioned to be treatable tho.)
