this is how it is for some people when there are non-white characters in movies, they consider it “pushing an agenda” when there’s nothing like that happening. it’s like they think people of other races just… don’t exist? therefore they should not be in movies? i don’t really get it
My problem is the race switching. It is so stupid and is done in stories already told. There are tons of stories that have not been told about the race you are race swapping with. Why can’t we tell their stories instead.
Or when they put random people of colour in historical dramas. I get that they need to somehow include actors of all origins, but I can’t help but feel like it’s also a kind of white washing? Like, sorry but a black person would not be a noble at the Louis XIV court, how about you actually talk about what history was like from that perspective rather than just shoehorning the actors and pretend like everything was fine and dandy for people of colour in those days.

Replace “do not exist” with “should not exist” and you are right on
There are only two races, white and political
