Potential black guy/fat woman stereotype?
Potential reference stereotypes regarding the phallus size of black males?
The mere existence of an apparently black guy in the image?

I'm grasping at straws here. Did that person not bother to explain themselves at all?

nope
I posted on this site like last year or the year before that
I should have asked him that a long time ago. The other commenter asked about it and no answer was given.

A dragon told you that was racist?

Hm, well, I asked my unicorn friend and he disagrees. But then he got into an argument with a jackalope about whether hybrids deserved mythical creature rights, so maybe he wasn't the best source.

I went and found a centaur, but he became offended at the question. His boyfriend thought it was sweet I was at least trying though, but he didn't have an answer for me.

Three gorgons and a werewolf later, and things are still fuzzy, but personally? I really don't see how it's racist. If anything I think the act of complaining that it's racist is more racist, but it's really not a conversation I'd like to get too deep into. Plus, I've got a couple of Jehova's Wyverns at the door, so I'm going to stop this here.

Racism is so stupid concept to me, but after seeing some peoples behavior towards immigrants I guess it's still a thing :\

But I still do not think that choosing black skin color for human in artwork count as racism. Hell, I have eaten niggers kiss chocolate treats and had black face with big red lips on licorice when I was young, but because there were racism and those were really closely linked to it, they suddenly became taboo and changed.

Just stop getting offended and only aim your anger if there's clear rasicm detectable, meaning active hate towards group. With that particular image, I'm pretty sure there's change that's actually fetish of some black dude.

That's not racist...

Now this, this is racist (and catchy!)

I do not know anything about the artist, as they could be as racist as hell, but when judging that song alone, it's so stereotypical that racism transforms into really awesome comedy :)

The artist is a white power activist and and KKK sympathist so yeah, he's pretty openly racist. It's kinda funny how ridiculous it is but it can still hurt to think that there's people, and lots of them actually who think your life is worth shit because of your skin.

But this pict, racist? Naaaah
