    I think in order for it to count as racism, it has to be something you can't change with a fantasia. You chose to play an Au Ra and you can choose to play something else. You can't choose not to be black. Or Asian.

    Is it right? No. But lets not dilute the word racism any further than it already has been by extending it to the freaking character you play in a vidya game.

    i think racism is the descrimiation of somebody based on the race. simple as. whether or not you can change it in ffxiv is kind of also subjective, because yes, ofc u can change it.. but its not ur choice to do so if youre being harassed for it. youde be playing a race you didnt want to play, its like changing your sexuality. if its not done by choice but a lie to fit in.. you have changed at all. inside ur still that same person/race.
