New Genshin Impact character Eula is angering Twitter because her backstory involves her family’s ownership of slaves. Of course we can’t mention slavery in ANY context in pop culture, because it’s sad. And sad things make us sad. And sad rhymes with bad. Then we talk about how real estate offices are using “primary” bedroom instead of “master” bedroom, and how problematic Star Wars is now because Anakin Skywalker was a slave.

REMINDER: A fictional cartoon family in a fictional cartoon world owned fictional cartoon slaves.
-_- Stupid people have a voice on the internet.. what a surprise!
In real life those buffoons are marginalized and ostracized by society fore a good reason.
Block/Ignore and continue do what you want -_-
Genshin Impact mentions slavery
People on twitter: depicting slavery in any way in media is bad
Hollywood working on it's umpteenth oscar bait movie about slavery.
People on twitter: Calling out the selectively blind is racist
the one good thing about it being made by a chinese company is i have NO fear of the woke being listend too cause CHINA DONT GIVE A GRAIN OF SAND SIZE OF A UCK ABOUT WOKENESS or as they call it baizou aka "the WUHITE left"
I have a confession. I'm racist – I play Authoritarian factions in Stellaris and usually have slaves.
These people are genuinely insane.
Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it big time. Heck the term working poor is still relevant to this day. All can say shut twitter down and watch the brains explode
There ARE fat people in the game
Basically another day that ends in why. Personally don’t care if a character owns slaves. It’s fiction.
Think i realized why I unsubbed and it's not your fault. Do you. But you cover outrage on things like genshin and other things that the overwhelming majority of people don't like because of things like predatory mtx / p2w because twitter doesn't like a character. why do you think your audience wants to see this when they're the ones that probably know how bad this game is or the other game / tv show / whatever. Like you say how bad disney is then cover how the left hated one of the scenes or whatever.. and there's many other instances of this.
When it comes to nomenclature I'll just be glad that they're probably too stupid to drive a manual
I don't want to live on this planet anymore
I keep reading the character's name as E. U. L. A… didn't realize her name is Eula.
They don't care about Actual Slavery.
If the twitterverse actually read manga or light novels the would be even more outrage. In isekai and fantasy genres slavery is a very common trope.
I would let you all in but I only have a master key and don't want to offend someone by opening a door.
You're not gonna find no Latin American complaining about this and most of the region was founded over indigenous people slavery…
This is kink shaming! and im offended – Twitter can go suck one!
Oh no, a character has a spotty past.
Tbh I care more about how the character themselves thinks of, or treats their slaves, not if they had slaves at all or not. While the later is preferable, being a nice and gracious master or being the child that doesn’t agree with the practice but can’t do anything about it because they’re well, a child is also fine by me.
When people forget history, history will repeat itself.
Honestly on the side of this is just dumb. But at the same time Mihoyo makes EA and BLIZZARD look like a charity soooo dont really care
Edit: spellcheck
I guess we have to cancel America and Egypt now.
Trinston was here .
meanwhile no problem with real-life slavery
The same people crying still buy ALL of their products from China, and praise ALL of these hypocrite corporations that rely on China money to make the products that those twitter babies beg to get or free or beg for free money from hard working people through crowd sources.
Last time I checked everyone was thirsty for said noble ice chick. Theses people are not real fans.
The Genshin fanbase is turning into the RWBY fanbase, it's all shipping and the VAs play into it as well. Just hope it doesn't leaks into the game as well.
A fictional character in the distant past of a fictional world did something horrible to other fictional characters and now real people demand real consequences to the fictional descandant for this fictional character.
We live in a society.
The anti-anime sentiment is getting tiring as always. Someone should tell Jack Dorsey to start charging people per tweet. I mean, if Twitter wants to support Twitter so much, they should have the money, right? wink wink
I'm hoping that this game dies, I've tried the game and its absolute arse. A gacha game that turns into grindy mess that just wants to drain your money because no games can be normal anymore. Rail against that instead of these dumb as hell nontroversies…no better yet include it, the faster this game burns the better.
Goomba's are brown skinned monsters. should Mario be cancelled?
Let them boycott, they probably weren’t playing the game anyway.
I play Genshin daily and trust me "fans" are not upset about this. Fans are upset about account verification and resin. The character background and stories are what make this game amazing
"Fans" = "Twitter"
It's easier to ignore the world's problems if you focus on imagined problems. Anyone upset about this non-troversy is just a typical 1st World Idiot.
When I saw "Eula" in the title, I thought this was going to be a rant on End User License Agreements
Inevitable that they will point out the male of a game being white and most likely a heterosexual man that's fit and handsome.
The funny thing about this is there's actually some great lore about the slaves of Mondstadt rising up and reclaiming their freedom. Venessa who was a gladiator slave revolted against her masters to protect her family, who were also enslaved, and with a little of the Anemo Archon's (Mond's god) help and encouragement she overthrew the corrupt leaders of Mond at the time and became the first Grand Master. In present day Mond Venessa is a highly looked up to and revered individual.
Ironic that people are upset over a CCP story featuring slaves but apparently are sleeping on the CCP's actual real-life slavery and genocide going on right now.
part of my ancestral family were taken to jamica/america/australia as intentured servents, they were expected to work without pay, treated very badly,had to ask permission to marry, if they did have children and died before any debt was paid it would then be passed on to the child, who would spend much in not all of their life in the same condition as their parent and on untill the debt was paid or the person owned could decide to sell the child for whatever price they could get to pay some of the debt. what does that sound like?, cause to me it seams they were treated much as a slave
Twitter's mad about fiction again….. so what else is new?
-_-
Funny, cause twitter primarybations themselves daily.
guilt by ancestry….lmfao
get the fuck outta here
It's sad to think that a game like genshin impact live rent-free in Twitter's heads about all day
Well that's Twitter for you
