Are you seriously trying to tell me that saying Anime being the way Japanese people draw cartoons is racist and untrue?

Are you going to try to tell me that this isn't how Ancient Indian culture drew, as well?

EDIT: THIS is not how Egyptians made sculptures, to say so is racist and untrue.

EVERYBODY SHUT THE HELL UP AND POST PICS LIKE YOUR SUPPOSED TO!!

I did post pics.

Even one of me.

[Outcast Orange]

It's really just the way Japanese people draw cartoons.

Really.

EDIT: Sorry, double post. I was ninja'd and forgot to edit.

[Grakelin]

Now we're getting into a territory where we're saying Egyptians and Indians aren't people, or what?

I do not understand the point being made here.

[Askot Bokbondeler]

gaaaah, i edited it too late

[Grakelin]

This now makes sense.

I tried to post a picture but Askot steamrolled it with his.

I'll try again later.

 I believe the point it: Some Japanese dude made an art style and a lot of Japanese dudes adopted it. However, it is not a way that a person naturally draws something from just being born to a specific race. It is a cultural thing.

 I believe I can procure photos from the hiking trip like four weeks ago.

Let me clarify my point, Grakelin:

If I said I didn't like the way African people made cartoons,
 or how Mexicans people manufactured cars, that would probably upset somebody.

This also applies to Japanese people. They are people too.

EDIT: We generally get around this by adding the word 'culture' after everything.

gah, it's like my "it's ugly". i could probably have added "i think it's ugly" but i shouldn't need to.

i could post more pics of the hot chic, just to rerail the thread, and she'd love the atention

That's different, since your opinion is stated by you. But to say "I don't like American culture" is fine.
To say, "I don't like Americans" is not as fine.

Totally out of an anime.

(chainmail is badass. I take back everything negative I've said about you.)

I agree.

When did I ever said I didn't like the way Japanese people drew cartoons?

This is just the way their culture draws them. It's no different than how Western Europeans draw their cartoons a certain way.

Askot said he was joking, though, so your continued attempts to support the 'RACISM!' claim is actually ironic.

[Outcast Orange]

Maybe I thought it was racist.
Maybe I wanted you to be more specific.
