References

References 1,2,3,4,5 are outdated, are from print books, which are not available to view online. Referencing of this quality would yield a fail, if used in first year BSc or BA undergraduate degree. Learnedresponsibility (talk) 04:05, 3 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Huh? Print books from 2010 through 2013 are "outdated" and only online sources should be used? I suppose you'd be happier if Wikipedia articles were sourced to QAnon (as I gather from [1]). NightHeron (talk) 10:56, 3 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Reason this article primarily deals with the US

In My Opinion, it only deals with the United States because, in my political conservative opinion, this is the leftists stirring the pot, mainly democrats and progressives and post-modernist only prevalent in the U.S. and I think this'll never spread, so this article does not need fixing, and I think it is just another political ruse. I'd even say due to it being heavily a political ruse, it would be unnotable without the politics behind it. I'm not nominating it for deletion NOW, but it might have to go when the woke wave dies down. but, this is mainly my POLITICAL opinion, however, I still think it is a trivial ruse nonetheless and is not notable. I may be wrong, but I'd have to wait. at best, just remove the template and move on. this only NEEDS to deal with the U.S. since this, microaggression call out stuff isn't a worldwide thing 2189 is out of order (talk) 04:14, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

So the treatment of POC in Europe and Asian cultures, just going to glance past all that? Cheerfully ignore Zwarte Piet, Minstrel shows, and further examples of cultural stereotyping abroad? There's entire swathes of Japanese animation with unfortunate implications & microaggressions. Jynx, Mr. Popo, Axis Powers Hetalia, or ire against the Romani people? 2601:540:8200:89F:C576:2539:3EA0:A09B (talk) 22:24, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
