Please note: I don't hate DeviantART. Don't know that I ever actually did in reality. [also, the POWER AND LIE OF HOW THINGS LOOK]

I did my share of ranting, but so did a lot of people.

But I can't help but notice the site's positive aspects.

Where else can one eavesdrop on some of the most amazing Asian Artists in their native habitat that's not anime. That doesn't sound prejudiced does it because it's not meant to be a negative statement.

I love Asians with all my BEING, but as a mixed blood Asian who grew up in a completely American white family only, where else do I get to hang out with Asians that isn't DeviantART the internet and ChinaTown

If some of them consider me a "rival" so be it, but I Refuse to "accept" Asians as my rival. WWII is history to me and nothing else in my opinion. They are all kindred spirits to me. There IS a spiritual connection there, not just a creative one. To me, we are one on some level. Sometimes I wish people WOULD notice I'm not just white but part Asian.

No one ever does though. To them I'm "just another white person trying to copy Asian culture". A" foreigner imposter" with my "crappy design and OEL". I'm so misunderstood. By Asians too. Not just white Americans.

French people seem to like me and take a liking to me. I just wish they weren't the only ones...Ah well.

Let's talk about the LIE that is race and racial profiling, stereotyping, and typecasting for a minute.

Probably the biggest line of bullshit reasoning and ignorance going on in America today, and pay attention now because this is important to people in America, even though it's a complete publicized LIE is the following mindset:

The ignorant and short sighted mindset that you have to look like the race, class, national heritage, or profession you are to BE the race, class, national heritage, or profession YOU ARE. This is racist  bullshit. What? You have to LOOK WHITE to BE WHITE??? You have to LOOK CHINESE to BE CHINESE??? You have to LOOK ARAB TO  BE ARAB??? You have to LOOK WHITE TO BE WHITE! And if you LOOK LIKE A CRIMINAL You ARE A CRIMINAL???

THE FUCK???

This is TV's fault entirely, for emphasizing looks over soul or heart or statistics.

What, you have to LOOK LIKE an ARTIST just to BE AN ARTIST?? You have to look like an EXECUTIVE PRODUCER to BE AN EXECUTIVE PRODUCER TO BE ONE???

The list of stereotypical social positions you have to look like just to "belong to in the eyes of others" goes on. Even in Asian culture looks are important, a culture that pioneered the field of invisibility.

I for one am sick of all this media and social judgement from my peers.

Looks are often bullshit, always lie, and can often be faked. Just keep that in mind when you don't believe the fact I have a dynasty of Eurasian Heritage in my Blood. Which I do.

I'm tired of ignorance based entirely on how things LOOK. Your eyes deceive you.

And they deceive everyone else as a result.
