Why does Jinx get so much hate for being a blackface pokemon and tapus don't?

They have no mouth. Plus niggers have dark brown/black eyes, the Tapus don't.
You could change their skin color to white, green, blue or whatever and thematically they would be exactly the same thing.

Never understood it. Jynx got changed pretty much immediately but mr popo lasted nearly 30 years unchanged and was a much more prominent character in the show itself and pop culture as a whole.

Mr. Popo was absolutely changed. The complaint was lodged by the same woman who criticized Jynx and Popo’s lips shrunk accordingly in subsequent media.

Mr popo wasnt turned blue until that nickelodeon version of dbz. His lips mightve shrank i never really looked into that but the entire artstyle of dragonball changed quite a bit from dragonball to Z and even more just in between different sagas in Z itself so i couldnt say for sure why that is but jynx was turned purple in the US as soon as gen 2 released meanwhile mr popo was still "blackface" in anything he would appear in for another ~15 years.

because the tapus's look absolutely nothing like blackface. No massive lips and googly eyes. Also the Tapu's aren't abstract enough that they don't immediately read as humanoid.

Now that you mention it, Tapu Lele would look really sexy with big red Mr. Popo lips.

Having a face that is the color black isn't blackface dude. It's only blackface if it has features clearly intended to emulate stereotypical caricatures of black people. Tapus look absolutely nothing like that, while Jinx looks 100% completely like that. It is seriously like night and day, I don't see how you can be confused
