Are there any books or guides on writing realistic characters

Yes, going outside.

Write an honest, accurate version of yourself

No one can claim it's unrealistic

Nigga if you want to vent all your hate of spingebob you can I ain't gonna judge you

almost all characters are realistic DESU.

I really liked how Dosto would characterize the rabble in TBK

Why is it that non-white people are genuine while white people have lost all authenticity and have become simulacra of themselves?

less responsibility

Ivory tower syndrome.

White is considered the default, which creates a sense of lack of originality, which, in turn, breeds hyper-aware and inauthentic individuals.

Blacks, Asians etc are able to feel like they're part of a group. Whites are not.

>>7459938
Why are they considered the "default" though? Why does the ruling class' ideology support this?

You can do both. Both are different artistic means to create emotions and ideas. The artistic merit is up to the individual.

Can I learn 4chan 6 times instead?

White people aren't as difficult to understand to white people or black/asian/Hispanic Americans who interact with a majority white from day to day. Because you and I probably are in the above groups, on default we see through our own bullshit better. Basically the reason for the word 'exotic'.
