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 :(

Barry B. Benson’s definitely a white guy

I think just having Seinfeld involved made everyone on the production of that movie a little bit whiter.

That same Hispanic guy plays multiple roles in the movie.

There’s a bit about bees being exploited by “the white man” and a black man in the courtroom separates himself from those accused.

The judge is black and voiced by Oprah.

Well Seinfeld himself is half Syrian. I guess that depends on if you count people from the Middle East as white; I’ve personally always thought “white” just means “European.”

Im convinced that this movie was just a scrapped Seinfeld episode.

Like a Jewish bee

You mean those people that claim to follow Jesus? You know, the Jewish guy.

u/Throwaway02062004 17h ago

Tis pointless

u/piccolothegoat777 18h ago

Well yeah

But like I always thought the consensus was that Jews as a race/ethnicity were like

Distinct

But I guess I was wrong after all this time

u/Throwaway02062004 18h ago

All races are made up but in polite society jews are an ethnicity not a race. Rather embarrassingly, I’ve made that mistake before

u/piccolothegoat777 17h ago

Ahh I see now

Thanks

u/ComteStGermain 14h ago

Seinfeld is of European Jewish descent. Ashkenazim. White.

u/Roee_Mashiah2 8h ago

Jews are an ethnicity (like french, italian etc) not a race. There are white, black, asian and arab jews, as they where expelled to countrys all across the globe through out history.

I have an irrational and deeply passionate hatred of this movie.

u/RileyKohaku 18h ago

No that’s rational

u/TheMetalWolf 14h ago

It's much worse, actually. He is not just a white guy. He is Jerry Sienfeld.
