Why can't Link be black? AKA I was trolled by this article, but its still fukked up:snoop:
- Thread starter MeachTheMonster
- Start date
I see. I just googled her too. There are some pictures of her light and dark. Think the point still stands though. Why did she have to get whiter in order to be princess? Nobody else got a tan.So the article was just was lying to me?
And who's the chick in the pic they posted?
Dude Link has looked the same with different clothing and accessories in all of the games.
Are you blind?
No. And he's clearly seen plenty of changes. And the cannon dictates that he's a different person every time.

tetra is a tanned "white" girl, her tan represents the freedom she had, the lack of tan represents the guilded cage of female royalty. this theme has been explored before with sheik being zelda's alter ego which she needs to assume in order to be free to do stuff. in older societies, non-tanned skin is associated with upper class status. in most of the oldest cases these are homogenous societies, so it is not inherently about race. it's actually this way in asian countries where everybody is the same ethnicity. it was also that way for europeans before they contacted black people.
in contemporary times where americans have a color based social order with a diverse population, this old social order does become racist even though it was originally classist.
basically the whole world does not revolve around american black/white relations, and the world did not begin 500 years ago. people have been keeping upper class women out of the sun before white people ever enslaved us and have been coming up with ways to divide their populations before they were ever integrated with other ethnic groups. so i would not accuse nintendo of any intentional racism based on this, breh.
these games do in a way display patriarchy and oppression of women since the only free woman capable of being outside doing interesting things is a woman that society doesnt care about (outlaw pirate tetra) or one that people think is actually a man (sheik). in that sense, the worlds of the zelda games all adhere to the dark age european social mores that you would expect a game about fairies, knights with magical swords, and damsels in distress would have.
nintendo games could use some diversifying, but this angle is silly. one way would be to expand the world. they have the gerudo people who are clearly modeled after arabs, they could have link interact with them more, even give him a brown skinned love interest that competes with zelda, LOL. they could even expand it to include fantasy versions of asia, africa, and the americas, but it is clear that hyrule is some kind of fantasy europe.
i think it would be even better if nintendo created a new ip with a darker skinned character. fantasy does not have to adhere to reality, but arbitrary changes to established conventions are not going to be well received.

the japanese are pale and they are the cacs of the east, looking down at the darker chinese people
hitler even named then Honorary aryans
if watch the movie American Me, the Mexican Mafia allowed Japanese person to join
and if you know anything about prison you know the hispanics have a treaty with the aryans to join forces against the blacks when a race riot occurs in the prison

So Link should be black all of a sudden? Guess they should make Max Payne Australian, and Agent 47 Korean.
