The Witcher isn’t in Medieval Poland though, it’s in a fantasy land.

So by that logic it's fine to make Wakanda full of white people because it's fantasy land right?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Wakkkanda it is.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

Sure it would, if the writers had written it that way. South Africa is full of white people, it might have even made sense.

But since they didn't do that, and then wrote their entire storyline around having not done that, this is a poor argument.

Wakanda is supposed to be in Africa, where Uganda is irl.

It would have had a different backstory, (hiding from colonial powers), but yeah.

[–] Zoomboingding 4 points 2 months ago

I mean yeah. If the writers wanted to make Wakanda have white people, that would be fine.
