This bug manga is going to ruin me. I just can't get over how overtly racist the imagery isfor seemingly no purpose. It's like someone wrote a piece of sci-fi based on the Turner Diaries but somehow missed that it's a ring-wing terrorism How To guide.

just as a side note, the skin and hair of these reconstructions are not based on fossil evidence, so the choices used here are subject to scrutiny of their own. skin tone correlates with regional sun exposure... but im not aware of any reason to give the pre-human caveman short kinky hair

The cockroach manga definitely has more flair and panache than any racist artist in the states is capable of.

I love posts like "Japan is the only country where white people are second class citizens," like the pathetic resentment that Japanese don't even do anything about to the hated gaijin is similar to having your brains blown out while reaching for your glove compartment.

Japanese racism is to American racism like Japanese fast food is to American fast food: incredibly elaborate, with super high production values and a tremendous amount of effort put into it for no obvious reason

it's also impressive that a society with almost zero black ppl and minimal historical relationship with african countries or peoples would even care enough to absorb and reconstitute western antiblack tropes within a native expressive medium. like, shouldn't they be making the cockroaches chinese or thai or something so it better resonates with the everyday concerns of the typical japanese nationalist racist trash?

Japanese nationalists have more resentment for Koreans, because they were "grandfathered in" as citizens after being imported as colonial subjects. Which is a pretty typical attitude for former empires, really.

you've got it the wrong way around, the lack of a relationship with a certain group makes it trivially easy to absorb the tropes about them

When white people say this is it also implies that they don't give a poo poo about Chinese, Koreans and other working-class immigrants who experience way worse racism than being banned from the local hostess club.
