lmao Lovecraft if you look a little deeper he was taking the racism at the time and introducing the idea of multiple worlds/races/people etc and expanding. It was an attempt at irony.
What you just described is exactly the problem. That people *want* it to be racist, so they view it as such. It's fear, it's ignorance. I cant stand it.
Brokeback Mountain, brilliant movie. Epic love story. How many people do you know who are like 'I'M NOT WATCHING THAT FAGOT SHIT"? They see what they want to see, pass judgment and have no problem with their own ignorance. It's entirely based in fear and anger. Anyone who would look at RE5 and have any thoughts of any real racism are just afraid of the world they live in. Afraid that 'they' are out to get 'them'.
Wanna know the real problems? We openly and constantly ridicule fat people, in films, television, movies and video games. We literally tell people fat people are disgusting, wrong, the outcast, an unattractive mess that's either made fun of or destroyed. We associate fat people (or characters) with being slow minded and humorous. Our comic reliefs are either fat or somehow physically malformed such as birth defects or both. The truth is, people that are over weight use humor as a means to escape ridicule, its a defensive mechanism and if we saw a movie with a fat main character he *better* be funny. We cant have fat heroes/heroines now can we? Unlike the ridiculous ideas of racism (as if a corporation of any type will openly attempt to do something racist in this day and age, knowing they would be sued or blacklisted, or both) the hate against fat is very real, it's openly accepted, it's taught in our fables and in our entertainment and no one blinks an eye at it.
Now that's scary.
They do lay eggs, the eggs look kinda like watermelons.
