And then, when the fanart was finished, they posted it, it didn't really look like my OC and I was a bit confused, maybe it was an artistic choice or something

But no, they then commented on the post "Their design makes them look more american than anything, I know they're Mexican and everything but I couldn't bring myself to draw them like that. So I redesigned it to look more mexican, from an actual mexican"

And I was like "????????"

"their design makes them look more american than anything" Bro wanted my oc to have traditional Mexican clothing with a sombrero and brown skin 🙏🙏😭😭😭

"from an actual mexican" CÁLLATE GRINGO PENDEJOTE TU CELEBRAS EL CINCO DE MAYO COMO SI FUERA LA PUTA INDEPENDENCIA MEXICANA 😭😭

"from an actual mexican" Tal vez tu sangre sea mexicana, pero mentalmente??? Chingada madre contigo

Summary: someone redesigned my OC because it didn't look mexican "enough" reinforcing Mexican stereotypes

I REALLY HATED IT and I had to stay "quiet" because I didn't want to start drama..

If it happened nowadays I wouldn't stay silent about it
