I recall seeing Animal Crossing Nook Miles Ticket someone on Twitter indicating Nintendo must perform a background check on their players so that they can not use hairstyles and skin colours which are not their race. Imagine being 10 and your favorite game about building a city with cute little critters asks what race you are so it can stop you from getting white people hair.

I recall seeing somebody on Twitter suggesting Nintendo should perform a background check on their players so that they can not use hairstyles and skin colours which aren't their race.This is the stupidest thing I've ever read, and now I'm officially down a few brain cells.

This is the identical game that goes full"gender is a construct" and lets you choose absolutely any outfits/body parts and completely deemphasises pronouns when referring to your personality, is it not?

It could be, however I read it from more than 1 individual so who know how severe they were. But even thinking about banning you from a match for using the wrong hair is absurd even as a joke.Can you imagine the fallout if one hairstyle was marked as"For white people"? Seriously, there is no winning there. There's enough division and hate in the actual world, we do not desire it in a game like animal crossing. Let alone the privacy consequences.

I recall seeing a few of this and people are simply plain absurd. With this type of ideology, just Japanese people should have the ability to play with Animal Crossing at the first place as it was produced by a Japanese man based on his youth in Japan. I hope they aren't wearing or using any items which don't belong to their own cultural heritage either most cases of what Twitter people call cultural appropriation is more along the lines of simply appreciating another culture. Eating foods, sporting clothing, usually that's perfectly fine, it is generally someone not of the civilization that makes the biggest deal out of it. Most times when cultural appropriation is really animal crossing new horizons items around, it's blatant as hell, like blackface, or behaving out common hateful stereotypes.
