Perhaps because they are fantasy monster and in the case of goblin slayer not meant to be a racial stand in for a real life minority but instead are, you know, a fantasy monster
You can point to harry Potter goblins and say that they are clearly an anti semitic caricature
What are goblin slayer goblins meant to represent? Is there some specific ethnicity there? Ah, curious.
“They’re an Other!” okay so basically you don’t want any humanoid monsters involved because any Other is automatically some sanction of real world racism
What I’m asking is why are you so sure that the goblins in goblin slayer aren’t meant to be a stand in for a real life minority? Why do you identify the ones in Harry Potter immediately as an anti-semitic caricature? What is the difference?

Because being hooked nosed gold loving bankers who are literally designed to look like that hand wringing merchant guy that gets play on 4chan is like, The Anti Semitic Trope? What are “green little rapists who live in caves” supposed to be? Like what the fuck lol. Vague shit about green skinned primitives is not on the same level as what Harry Potter did, it’s wild to even think a person exists that would think so
"For years, Tolkien scholars have waged a fight on two fronts: against an academic establishment that for the most part refused to take the author's work seriously, and against white supremacists who have tried to claim the professor as one of their own."
― David Ibata, Chicago Tribune
Are you calling yourself a white supremacist tho because you’re a person who thinks “vague shit about green skinned primitives is on the level with what harry Potter did” as well
“No U” is some weak ass shit. Get the fuck outta here with that, right wingers pull that shit all the time to dismiss legitimate criticism, especially of race. You gonna tell me BLM are the real racists next?
I’m not calling the show racist, I’m simply saying the racists believe it is racist.
no like literally with how that was framed and by that logic you would be including yourself up in there. I said it is wild to think that such a person exists, you said they do, they’re white supremacists. You are the one existing in part of a venn diagram whose beliefs overlap with theirs, by that set of statements. That’s not “no you,” dawg.

so fucking confusing after this long ass argument about the inherent racism of the show, a thing which you believe, but maybe I got you confused for the other guy
What you’re doing now is saying that Antifa are the real Nazis for pointing out what dogwhistles the Nazi’s use. Just because you didn’t know about them doesn’t mean they don’t exist, and when other leftists tell you they do you’re putting your hands in your ears and screaming “LAHLAHLAH” like a fucking child just because you don’t want to fucking think about what you’re watching.
If you actually think I’m jumping at shadows, engage with my fucking arguments and tell me how they’re not far-right dogwhistles rather than pull “Oh you the real racist for pointing out racism” bullshit.
Why are the goblins in Goblin Slayer fantasy monsters, but not the ones in Harry Potter? After all, aren’t they both goblins?

This is a waste of both our time

I don’t feel like I’m wasting my time.

I’m telling you that real life crackers post memes about Goblin Slayer because the racialized Other in the show is just vague enough that people like you won’t see the dog whistles while they go on about how goblins are responsible for 60% of the crime while being only 14% of the population, and should be genocided JUST like in the show.
