What's Up Fuckers!?

Take a look at this? We don't Fucking need anymore YA books like Fucking Black Witch or The Continent!

>A sensitivity reader reads through a manuscript for issues of representation and for instances of bias on the page. The goal of a sensitivity reader isn’t to edit a manuscript clarity and logic, although that may be an additional service offered. A sensitivity reader reviews a manuscript for internalized bias and negatively charged language. A sensitivity reader is there to help make sure you do not make a mistake, but they are also NOT a guarantee against making a mistake.

Editors are not Fucking good enough! No books should be allowed to even be published if they haven't undergone the appropriate sensitivity readers.

go back there

Why do people want to destroy art with politics? They already got movies, videogames and TV shows. What's next? Fucking literature? Music?

Sounds useless.

>>9940193

>>9940210

You MotherFucker. Why do you have to attack and offend POC just to make art?
>>
>>9940389
is there an instance where POC aren't offended?
is there an instance where POC don't take the position of victim paradoxically forcefully?
>>
>>9940389
also, let me get this straight, people of color is fine, but colored people isn't? what in the fuck is wrong with these morons?
>>
Literature written in any Indo-European language is inherently offensive. Ban them all! *clicks angerfully*
>>
>>9940210

They're not talking about art, they're talking about fantasy books for kids.

Also that second author had a valid point in that if you're just doing research to accurately represent something you're writing about, it's fine as long as you're not censoring yourself.

Can I get published if my books only include white people?
>>
>>9940396
whatever terminology you use to refer to them is offensive
whatever terminology we use to refer to them is good natured
>>
How the fuck I gonna publish my novel where a sadistic women keeps using rape as method of interogation and actualy laughts at others misfortunes?

Which part of "The Jews want to destroy your culture" do you not understand? There is NOTHING that will not be attacked, and the longer you pretend it isn't true, the longer it will happen.

This actively dosent help, as a matter of fact, you only makes harder for anyone to fight back against this garbage.
Please remove yourself.

>people get degrees in retarded shit without thinking you need that degree to work
>no one wants to hire people with degrees in retarded shit
>thus they invent jobs they can do with their degree in retarded shit

That's how this works.

I just wish they would see the misogyny and anti-anything-progressive-that-isn't-gibs inherent in American Negro culture.

What the fuck are you people talking about? Did anyone read the article? You fuckers victimize yourself from seeing one single paragraph. The title of the article is literally "Experts Or Censors? The Debate Over Authors' Use Of Sensitivity Readers". Do you know what "debate" means?
But yeah, it's easier to just skim through OP's strawmen and be triggered.

>>9940534
You faggot are simply going to publish it, literally nobody requires you to have a "sensitivity reader".
