Online "nerd" spaces (using that term loosely) are very racist and very very white. The liberal places are just as the racist as the conservative ones.

I feel bad for chick. The best thing she can do is surround herself with other black coslayers and rock with them. Otherwise she gonna hate it there

Everybody got weird hobbies. Don’t matter what color you are. We’re here to enjoy ourselves not not do something because it’s not normal .

I’m an avid bird watcher and just started raising butterflies and I don’t give a fukk. I’m the joke of my friends and family and prolly you brehs too but it’s the most peaceful thing

Cmon man. Its because shes fat. If she was attractive all those nerds would be tripping over themselves to give her attention. I imagine she'll get insulted In this very thread

Idk why but her weight wasn’t the first thing I thought about. Her weight actually makes the costume look good imo and I’m very antiobesity

Guys dont look at women in cosplay for the outfits

And frankly women don't play dress up just because. She got the attention she wanted

Let fluffy be, she's not hurting anyone. The internet is such a vicious place.

She doesn't deserve it, but you can't tell me she didn't know what she's signing up for.

I never understand giving people death threats. Feel bad for her.

This is a dice roll in a different way. All too often other black cosplayers are performative idiots looking for approval and will be just as bad as the racists.


Some people cosplay the costume, some people cosplay entire lifetimes as a character they're not...the costumes are incidental.

Exactly. If she lost weight the vast majority of the insults would stop.

I hope the good people at Cosplay your way reached out to her. No need to receive death threats or harassment.

She learned a valuable lesson.

that cosplay shyt ain’t got nothing to do with character appreciation.

It’s an excuse for hoes to hoe and nerds to beat off. That’s not your lane for likes .

This is incorrect, for some
