A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
Exactly. If the roles are the problem, write better roles! I'm surprised it's not seen as an insult if a role is just token-swapped and "pity given" as some kinda EDI-initiative for culture points.
I would love to be exposed to more genuine characters that reflect their backgrounds. But I get a bit annoyed at this bizarre box-ticking tokenism that's clearly pervading Hollywood, as if they ever gave a crap about anybody in the first place.
Stoking identity conflict makes them money. Lots of it. It keeps them relevant at the forefront of "the discussion" in a world where cultural relevance is literal currency.
The same corporations that'll "champion diversity" with a "palette swap" on screen, will outsource their VFX from places with horrible working conditions, for instance. It's all a big show and apparently lots of us are still falling for it.
