Do yāall remember the other new forum account that said almost the exact same thing about how the guess their child shouldnāt play with black barbies or something along those lines in a past thread? Wouldnāt be surprised if this is the same person with another new account @kokokokonut
Also, obviously thatās an idiotic way of thinking, has nothing to do with the conversation about cultural appropriation, Ā but I donāt expect thoughtful discussion from someone who made an anonymous account just to try to assert white peopleās right to ruin, ridicule and then steal from other cultures. I donāt understand why racists constantly come back to the forum, youāre not wanted here.Ā
I personally just donāt understand why it is so difficult for some people to understand that feeling entitled to use POC skin tones and hairstyles comes from a place of privilege and completely disregards the racism and hate that POCs experience on a daily basis?? Most of the time when people use darker skin tones, they really do it in order to fit a specific SYS theme, which IS NOT a form of cultural appreciation and instead perpetuates negative stereotypes that black women are aggressive, āedgyā, and unfeminine. And whatās even worse is that the same people who claim to be ācelebratingā and āappreciatingā black culture are the same people who āLOLā posts that explain that what they are doing is hurtful, and give every single reason why them being allowed to pose as a POC seems to be more important than being sensitive to POC dolls. If you claim to be so appreciative of black culture, why is it so difficult to listen to those who are actually POC and NOT do the very thing that makes them upset? It just seems like those people only care about POCs when they feel like their culture and styles are ātrendyā, but the second they see POCs expressing any form of discomfort or concern, their opinions are completely invalidated and viewed as āaggressiveā or āoverly-sensitiveā. In LITERALLY ANY OTHER SITUATION, if any of you spoke or acted in a way that was ignorant or insensitive to other peopleās struggles that WASNāT race-related (like mental illness, money struggles, etc) and that person told you that it made them feel upset and feel like their struggles arenāt real, chances are you would be so much more likely to apologize for making them upset and avoid doing something similar in the future. Why canāt that same attitude beĀ maintained when it comes to conversations about race and prejudice against POC?
Racism STILL HAPPENS to this day and white people have no right to tell black people how they are supposed to feel and undermine their feelings whenever a white person appropriates their culture, even if they didnāt have harmful intentions. At the end of the day, Iām pretty sure that at least MOST of you on this forum have had at least ONE history lesson that talked about racism and the history of abuse against the black community, and even if not, Iām sure you at least have social media and access to the internet. So as a white person, it shouldnāt feel right for you to capitalize on something that has been historically a part of their culture, ESPECIALLY since black people have always been viewed as āghettoā and āunprofessionalā for their dark skin and POC hairstyles while white people are praised for darkening their own skintones and using the exact same styles that black people get bullied and harassed for. It just doesnāt sit right with me that people are blatantly ignoring this and saying āitās just hairā and āitās just a gameā, because if you find yourself justifying your repeated actions of using dark skintones and black hairstyles as a costume and telling POCs to āget over themselvesā and to āstop being over-dramatic and making everything about raceā, you are both a bully and a racist.
Glu, what the heck. These are my lowest scores in the past year Iāve been playing. @KalindaKing can we please get answers about the voting issue? Ā Weāve been asking for months and this is insane.Ā
This thread is full of pettiness and drama. All over some hairstyles and skin color of a DOLL IN A GAME! Man, yāall are losing it. Iām going to use what I want when I want. š¤·š¼āāļøĀ
The inherent privilege that lets you play the game for fun and escapism because you don't have a daily reminder of the real life hate you receive for your skin colour and features.Ā Trust and believe if there was another dress up game that gets regularly updated with current and trending styles like KKH then many of us BIPOC would play it. But we're stuck with the Culture Vulture and are trying to make the best of it but y'all insist on making it real hard.Ā
Do you or anyone else mind sharing examples of the daily hate yāall experience?Ā
I get what youāre saying but at the end of the day youāre still playing Kim Approprashianās game. Every download, purchase, ad watched supports her. If she does it yāall canāt expect the players to be saints
I'll repeat that first look in every SYS I think it fits because it's one of my favorites, I don't care if it's not well received lol so yeah, weak start as usual
This look is amazing and perfectly fits the theme š and it deserves so much better ā¤ļø
Yay, another really nice earnable that I probably won't reach cus breaking 40 is getting harder and harder. @KalindaKing Instead of avoiding questions and deleting threads about rigged scores, maybe ask your bosses to lower the votes for the last earnable. Earnable means we should be able to earn it, not have to buy it with tickets. So sick of this.

You know I never thought of it from that perspective before...how incredibly taxing and hard it must be to have some common decency. It is way too much to expect of other people.Ā

So Iām probably never gonna make anymore posts be it Iāll be banned after this post or not, but i received A rude message from kalinda and koko telling me Iām rude and disruptive, and Iām appalled. So feel free to send me adds on Facebook and discord as those forums are much better then this. The audacity to message me but yet they allowed racisms and disgusting comments on here before. So thank you to the dolls who always were kind and supportive on here but I will most likely be banned for talking about the rude message. Ā

say it louder!!! at this point there needs to be one of those announcement threads consisting of comments explaining why white people and non-black poc making their skin darker or using black hairstyles to fit a SYS is just disrespectful and not the cultural appreciation they think it is. we have this discussion in every other sys, and there will ALWAYS be people who are ignorant about this stuff, so we might as well have a huge a** thread on top letting them know.

Go ahead and share the message. People always reveal their true colors. They are always dismissive and never ever address anything problematic on this forum. They tend to sweep stuff under the rug in hopes it will disappear. When they constantly disregard racism it looks like they side with it and itās acceptable. The lack of diversity in moderation say a lot for a game thatās been around for awhile.Ā
I was about to say how much I'm enjoying making looks for this theme for once, but seeing everybodys scores is making me feel sad. Straight up robberies I'm seeingĀ
Sarah girl you win ! You can chill for rest for the rest of the SYS. And she keep summiting looks šš Ā Ā
Why tho?ššš like I'm curious... is she Woah Vicky? Fighting the air?ššš

I've seen so many 30s in this sys for all looks that deserved at least 40-50 votes. Before the SYStem change, 30s are just shown for new doll that didn't have a wide range of outfit. But now it really seems like 30s are the new 40s, 40s are the new 50s and 60 is a cursed except for the last look submitted
Okay yāall donāt laugh at me. I was watching an ad to unlock the drumsticks and I saw this and thought that these outfits would actually be kinda cute in the game š
Glu, what the heck. These are my lowest scores in the past year Iāve been playing. @KalindaKing can we please get answers about the voting issue? Ā Weāve been asking for months and this is insane.Ā
Iām about one more unfair score away from quitting. This is so demoralizing.Ā
Does anyone know why we can only block a handful of people? This forum has become down right unusable. We shouldn't have a limit to how many people we block.

i know you did not just ask that... i KNOW you did not just passiveĀ aggressively ask a bipoc to explain to you the racism they experience š... while using AAVE no less š...Ā
stg im particularly hating my part white heritage on this day cuz yall are wackĀ š¤øš³ļø
I wasnāt being passive aggressive when I asked for examples I am actually curious and want to know what yāall deal with daily (outside of this forum) But the second part yeah I was. The mentality reminded me of the people who are woke about gay/trans issues but still buy food from chickfila.Ā
Saying you canāt use a black character in the kim kardashian app is ridiculous to me itās a game not real life woahvicky, Martina big type of stuff. Ā Were they entering the sys with aunt jemima? But I understand how Iām just another dismissive white person so Iāll leave it there.Ā
