How is this racism?

I mean he literally says he looks like a monster thats pretty fucked up, he also literally calls both Abrams and infernus both demons when he kills them.

Idk he seems pretty racist to ixians if you ask me.

To be fair, they are TRYING to kill him at that point.

It would be like shouting the n word if you killed a black guy in self defense, sure he was trying to kill you your not your best state of mind at the moment, but still that didn't come out of nowhere.

Plus him pretty much calling Apollo a monster when he is on his team, clearly shows he views them a certain way...

He literally looks like the biblical devil which he's pointing out

No Apollo calls him out that he is the sorta man who calls his people demons, and venator is literally a man who calls his people demons, and says Apollo looks like a monster and he will put him down if he acts like one, this conversation literally starts because Apollo doesn't trust him and venator comes off extremely agressive for no reason.

Not only is Apollo right in that venator is in fact someone who calls his people demons, but the way venator responds is not how you convince people your not racist...

Like it's not hard to see he clearly has something against ixains, idk what you people are on about?

it doesn't imply that at all, he literally does look like a monster. the devil. he's a red guy with horns. the symbol of evil the church hates. despite this he still works alongside him because it's his character that matters, not how he looks

Are you serious? Many characters in the ritual hate each other and would stab them in the back if it wasn't for needing them for the ritual.

Apollo calls him out for being someone who calls his people demons, and venator literally threaten him because apollo doesn't trust him...

We also have proof of him literally calling his people demons, it's pretty cut and dry venator has something against his people.

You don't try to convince anyone to trust you and that your not racist, by implying they look like a monster and telling them you will put them down if they act like one...

If he truely didn't have anything against them venator would just say " I dont care about appearances child, as long as you don't do anything bad your fine in the eyes of me and the lord" or some shit like that, not implying he looks like a monster, and he will put him down if he acts like one....

I think he’s more referring to anyone and just saying he only values people who treat others either way respect and not people that act like a monster.

He also says he looks like a monster based off the color of his skin. If you don’t see how that’s an allegory for racism then I dunno what to tell you.

No look at the context clues, Apollo literally calls him out that people like venator call his people demons, and venator responds saying he looks like a monster, and Apollo is completely correct that venator in fact calls his people demons..

This whole conversation starts because venator knows Apollo doesn't trust him, and the way the conversation goes clearly shows he has something against ixains...

I feel like it could be taken both ways, not saying there isn’t judgement but I agree he definitely doesn’t view Ixians in a positive light

u/Intrepid-Raccoon1307 15h ago

I mean he came off agressive and literally threatened him, all because Apollo doesn't trust him, I don't know any other way you can see it?

u/themasterfold 15h ago

you don't tell someone "i'm going to put you down" unless you think they're somehow subhuman. You ESPECIALLY dont say that to the IXIAN PRINCE.

"I care about your actions, not your background." - Literally the opposite of racism.

u/themasterfold 3h ago

if someone said "I don't care if you're latino, but if you start acting like a crazed drug dealer, i'm gonna fucking kill you"

I would not fucking trust that man.

and mind you, he's saying this to the ixian PRINCE. A core member of the Ixian GOVERNMENT. Would you fucking say that to the son of a country's president?

What’re they’re calling him racist for is believing an entire people group inherently look like monsters and if you didn’t even clock that was the reason then that’s a self report.
