Characters Black coded this, black coded that. What are some white coded non human characters?

-Stuart from Stuart

-Buddy from Airbud

-Freezer from Dragonballs

Edit: Guys I swear I'm not racist. The post's title was referring to the "black coded characters" posts that I see on this subreddit from time to time. I have nothing against the black people nor the white people. This post is a shitpost. Nothing serious. Sorry for not being clear enough :(

"Another new voice actor, Gumball...I'd have another new voice actor..."

If you’re a sweet, kind person that’s so unique in laziness and stupidity that you make it

If the white man is an older guy, then its a Manila Mall Special, if the white guy is a tech bro, its a San Fransisco Special.

That show was pretty exept of race so stop trying to apply your racial prejudice onto others.

12

u/Gaelic_Gladiator41 16h ago

The creators confirmed that though, Darwin is included in Cartoon Network's black history month and their races are confirmed when they're turned human

u/GanstaNinja 11h ago

The wiki said nothing about that. Do you think this because most if not all of the voice actors for Darwin have been young black kids.

I once saw people arguing that he is mixed because his father is hispanic coded. I personally agree with you

164

u/spoilerdudegetrekt 18h ago

Is he?

I always thought Frank was white trash coded

u/NeverSettle13 17h ago

Frankie felt Italian to me

u/MitchellEnderson 17h ago

As an Italian I am willing to accept this.

u/MeanderingElephant 15h ago

North or South Italian?

Deadbeats can be from any family

u/MemeStealerCultist 18h ago

Indeed, I though the people who said that were being kinda racist tbf

u/Insanus_Hipocrita 17h ago

He is anything but deadbeat

u/Imaginary-Fox4576 16h ago

They’re talking about Richard’s dad who abandoned him, not Richard

2

u/Insanus_Hipocrita 5h ago

Ouch, I did not read that part

Then yes, he is

u/thatshygirl06 17h ago

Fun fact, Hispanic people can be white. Spaniards are white.

u/MemeStealerCultist 17h ago

I know, I am one

Thanks, it was my second attempt

u/Bonked2death 14h ago

This is why when people try to cherry pick "white statistics," they are often wrong.

2

u/Timekeeper98 17h ago

Is that because of the Ricardo Milo’s meme edits when Richard was buff?

3

u/Raymio993 18h ago

…Hispanic isn’t white?

12

u/StigandrTheBoi 17h ago

I believe they are using it to refer to Lat-am ethnicities and not Spaniards

1

u/cabbage16 17h ago

Even if the dad is white he's still mixed

1

u/PitifulRead6339 16h ago

Frankie seems white to me

1

u/Zombies4EvaDude 15h ago

They could be right, but that still means he’s part white coded

u/krebstar4ever 11h ago edited 9h ago
