I'm ok with a bit of fun. Trust me. But the toxicity around Carrot and the mink has gone from fun.. to actual systemic toxicity, meaning, actual deshumanizing argument against a oppressed yet fictional race (=fictional racism). And I think that's a problem worth noting because this thread is a major source for that. Now I'm willing not to bit to much on the nose about that.. but let's all agree at least that it's not cool to dezhumanize characters even if they are not real.
No I don't think so.
