Avatard writes racist sci-fi novel for teens

One of the more common tactics used by avatards is to talk about how influential Avatar has been and how much it has changed the way movies are made. Other than an influx of 3D movies (which have existed since the 50s, and which were coming out so regularly that Cinemark was parodying it in their advertisements before Avatar even came out), I've failed to see the influence.

Now it seems though, that Avatar has had an influence on something, but not in in the area of film, but literature. A book recently came out called 'Saving the Pearls' involving environmental messages, the main character changing their race, and interracial romance with cat people.

It's certainly been getting attention lately. Mainly because it's a racist piece of shit. The book takes place in the future, where global warming caused by corporations has made it so that only black people can go out in the day, and have become the ruling class (seriously, that's the plot). So the heroine dyes her skin black so that she will be considered socially acceptable, and falls in love with a black dude who is also half-cat.

Also, if you were wondering what the title was referring to, it's because black people call themselves "coals", while white people are called "pearls" as a slur. If blacks were the ruling class, why would they call themselves "coals" instead of say, a more valuable black metal, like onyx? and wyh would white poeple, the minority, be named after a valuable object?

Hmmm, an attempt at fighting racism that is actually very racist itself, stupid logic, bullshit knowledge of even basic science. Sounds like Avatar to me!

And yes, that is the novel's heroine in blackface for the book's trailer.

Yes, this is a real book, and it really has been published. Just like '50 Shades of Gray' started out as a Twilight fanfic, who wants to bet that this racist bullshit started out as an Avatar fanfic? I wouldn't fucking be surprised, in fact, I'm pretty damn sure that's the case.

Remember this next time Avatards talk about how the movie has helped to combat racism and that only racist people dislike it, even though I've shown how thoroughly bullshitty that claim is.

Go here for a wonderful sporking of the book.
