LOTR MT:G set card leak

Should have made the ranger Blackagorn be fat too. Not very body positive

I’m trademarking “Blackagorn” now btw, you can’t use it
I feel like they haven't been inclusive enough.

Shouldn't they have a character in a wheelchair or retcon some Marxism/defund the city guards into the text? Arwen could at least have dyed her hair omg [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

They couldn’t call it “Gay lovers” though obviously. They’d have to imply it from the card text and pic

Something like “Artifact: Frodo and Sam’s Hairy Bois Oil” effect: 2 colorless mana: target hobbit is unblockable this turn
Flavor text: The hairy hobbit boys lube each other up so that they can penetrate the enemy defenses from behind

^
Something like that that might imply it
You have thought about this WAAAY too much.

Ya know why they doin it.
You mean because one race has dominated all popular media for decades in America, and now media producers want to let people who don't look like that race see themselves represented in the media they consume?

Yeah, agreed. But the response has been an over correction. Now it's considered a negative thing to just be white and straight. This isn't "inclusion" it's just flipping the script the other direction. Still a bad thing to be hyper focused on race.

oh its all about the money, inclusion is good for business. marketing a product to all races and genders is a simple and smart thing to do. this is why the couples in every ad are interracial.

really don't understand why this is a new thing, black people were buying pepsi and diapers 40 years ago.

He said, as he hyper focused on race. The average person in the world is not a white.

Representation in media is just supply and demand. You're being critical of capitalism, you just don't seem to know it.
