Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Can you elaborate on what problems you have with it? It seems like you have a warped idea of what these depictions are meant to do. They're not "poster children" like you say, they're supposed to be honest reflections of members of society.
Inclusion, specifically, is meant to show marginalized groups that they aren't forgotten by the broader society. I'm not trying to bait you into saying something, but do you think that this is a bad thing?
Yes that's perfectly fine, but it seems like conventionally attractive people are the ones being forgotten now.
… for the first time in centuries. I think we can deal with a little under representation for a bit.
Ha...you think your part of the conventionally attractive group
