This wasn't exactly the point of the post. You saying that YOU specifically don't feel/act in the way i was calling out actively takes the focus off of the problem and on to you.

You think all of them are feral? You're not discriminating? Awesome, then the post isn't for you, and the fact that you didn't add anything of value to my post/my critique just shows that either you didn't understand the post and it's purpose, or that you're actively ignoring it.

This is about people actively using the word feral to BE RACIST to the most famous POC batboys. This does not apply to you if you use it for all of them. Your addition to the post was unnecessary, and frankly a little insulting.

TL;DR you took a post that wasn't about you and made it about you and honestly that tells me everything i need to know about you.

CAN WE PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY STOP REFERRING TO THE POC BATBOYS AS FERAL???

I've seen several posts on my timeline from pretty popular batfamily blogs where they refer to Damian or Dick as feral.

The Damian one is just pure racism?? Even if that's not what you meant, the effect is still there. Why would you call Damian, who is a middle eastern child, a feral child? Or go so far as to relate him back to an animal? The amount of people making that connection is so disgusting to me. And it's not even the bloggers themselves, the comments and reblogs are filled with people who like this narrative of Damian being completely feral... Like ask yourself why you think it's funny? Like why do you enjoy that comparison so much? There are so many other words and references you could be using that don't sound racist, and yet you chose to use this one?

I don't see as many posts claiming Dick is feral, but there have been a few posts about Robin!Dick and people being like "omg Robin!Dick was feral! He was such a little gremlin!" .....

You could use so many other words to describe Dick as Robin, and you chose "feral"??? What about Rowdy? Angry? Easily excitable? Like what made you specifically choose feral? And another thing is if you specifically refer to Robin!Dick as feral but Nightwing! Dick as civilized... What makes you think Robin!Dick is specifically feral?

Like to me (CALL THE POLICE THIS IS A PERSONAL OPINION) it sounds like the only time Dick was feral in people's eyes is when he's fresh from the circus. Like Robin!Dick was learning a whole new culture because he quite literally had POC parents who taught him differently... And your first instinct is to call that era of his life "feral"?

Idk yall can we please use our critical thinking skills next time? At least use a different word? Or check yourself before making these types of posts/art? Like it cannot be that hard to not be racist.
