if you’re referring to the comments, (which i just realized i typed comics instead of comments) someone in the comment section keeps on referring to “Al” (which literally means the) as a “ ali baba bitch”. which is either a reference to the chinese reselling company (which makes no sense) or the more likely versions, either a horrible misspelling of Prince Ali Ababwa, or Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves. I’m sure you’ve at least heard arabic people complain how aladdin is horrible representation and relies heavily on stereotypes throughout the story, (i.e: the revealing clothing the female characters wear, which some of the characters within this story wears. this is a botched interpretation of what traditional arabic clothing worn by women looks that have been created by colonizers).
not trying to be that one woke friend but like the emphasis on yona pale skin, the orientalist outfits, and the misuse of the arabic language is driving me insane. not to mention the fact the blatant racism in the comics. like we get it, the only arabic fiction you ever read was Aladdin buddy stop repeating the same joke over and over anyways this is booty cheeks and i wish we had more arabic representation that wasn’t just straight up racism
