I hope they get Kelly Marie Tran because she's both not white and was cyber bullied, so she's so popular right now.

And when Geralt calls her pale.

And when she's confused for being Geralt's biological daughter.

And when she's described as being lighter than people in the desert.

And so on and so on.

If you read the books, it's pretty damn obvious.

And we know her size in the books as well, and longer descriptions of her skin especially once she starts getting scars.

TC can you honestly say you care

I'm white as fuck and I don't


British parties call for the Polish to be kicked out of the country and they face discrimination, but they are passing over them and not giving them a shot.

And yet you don't think it matters for them to be represented in a piece of media so important their president gifted the series to other world leaders?

Or are you just thinking Polish people are white so you don't have to care?

You gonna say something similar about another race when the next time whitewashing happens? This is literally a dumb, pointless decision that doesn't add literally anything to the production. You could even argue that it takes away the authenticity of the lore. But continue to boil it down to "lol salty whites."

Is it hard to grasp?

You are saying a persecuted ethnic group having a culturally significant character played by a different race doesn't matter.

Would you be okay with a Brit playing Napi in a story about Blackfoot mythology? Because it matters to about the same degree.

Welcome to the modern world, Nothing can have only White characters, Nothing can be strictly for Men

Everything has to have minorities, Or has to try and attract a Female fanbase, Otherwise it's racist, Sexist and exclusionary.

This is bulshit...


Won't someone PLEASE think of the poor oppressed white christian males

The WAR ON WHITE PEOPLE CONTINUES


yeah because the white people in poland didnt suffer? polish people already went through a lot of pain and were treated worse than a lot of others in history. and yes the war on white people does continue because people in 2018 continue to treat white people as if they dont matter anymore and its time for them to pay the price for what a small group of people did in the past.

the hell is wrong with you and other people?

because the witcher is integral to polish society, and now because people are angry at this casting decision the polish arent being called racist and put down. but because polish are white people a lot of these anti-white people think they dont matter and should care more about non-whites and how theyve been treated worldwide.

Listen y'all can complain about this decision and criticize it, that's completely fair

But when you start to act like the sky is falling and "nothing can have only white characters" (which is complete horseshit btw) it's just a circus


Over 20% of Poland's population was killed in the 20th century, and afterwards the Soviets attempted to eliminate their culture, covering up stories of war heroes, mythos and more.

No big deal though. Clearly it's not important for a major characters to be represented by actual Poles.

This has nothing to do with any of the bullshit you've been babbling about. There is no "war on white people" in 2018 and you're completely delusional.

A character from a Polish novel you mean.

A series deemed so culturally significant, their president gifted it to other nations as an example of Polish culture.

Polish oppression is relevant when ethnic Polish aren't getting to play the main two characters in their own series.

It's frankly bullshit.

I can't believe you don't think this matters.

A group that has faced so much discrimination isn't playing the two leads in such a culturally significant work, and your response is "no biggie"

Holy shit

I literally said at the beginning of my fucking post that it's a fair criticism

I only think it's dumb when people act like white people are heavily being disadvantaged in the film industry

I can't believe you didn't comprehend that


But Polish people are heavily discriminated against.

You are trying to turn this into white people which is wrong.

The fact that none of the leads will be Polish people is wrong.
