Come christmas morning a bunch of kids are gonna start playing the game they got from their mom and see someone who looks like them as this badass ninja samurai dude. They're gonna be like "Wow this Yasuke guy is pretty cool" and then later get their minds blown when they find out he was based off of a real person. Maybe for some of them this sparks a lifelong love of history. Maybe some of those kids even go on to become respected scholars and authors, their lives changed by that feeling of being represented. Regardless, they'll have a good time with their new game.
Meanwhile, these reply guys are going to still be giving themselves hypertension over this and they will never feel anything like the joy those kids are gonna feel.
So fuck 'em, let those morons mald 'till kingdom come.
