You know what I find problematic? their refusal to just create new characters, instead of tokenizing existing characters

As someone who is black, I hate race swaps for two reasons. One it feels like Hollywood is basically saying you aren't worthy of your own original character, and two they seemingly never turn an established black character white.

As a black man who was a child in the 2000s, Disney Channel was a staple of my childhood and I found that Disney Channel during that time was ironically more diverse when diversity wasn't the primary focus. It just came naturally. Just because I'm black and someone else is black doesn't mean I can relate to them more than I can a white person, latino, or asian.

I'm an Indian woman and i was just fine with white princesses in fairy tales growing up. I'm not so fragile as to need to see my colour everywhere to feel represented. I could identify with qualities of various characters, even superheroes, such as being courageous, kind, strong and fighting for what's right even in the face of adversity. Those were my general takeaways. As a kid, i used to find those stories fun and inspiring. I know I'm not a duck, dog or a mouse but i loved Donald duck, micky mouse, goofy, etc. It is the same principle. You don't need to see your own kind everywhere to enjoy a good comic book, books or even films. To dumb it down to such basic levels shows how scant of a regard they actually have for the very people they think they are catering to, because this is the bare minimum. If you truly want to represent a community in a meaningful way, create new worlds and characters to show some new stories. Do not try to force gender/ race into existing stories. It just makes you look shallow, cunning and downright disrespectful

I'm black and I relate to Peter Parker and Luke Skywalker. It is what they stand for.

As a black man, im always annoyed by changes like making a character black or some race change that they weren't even to begin with. You already stated the stuff regarding her being fat.

When I was a 5 year old girl, I still aspired to be Indiana Jones. He didn't have to be a 5 year old girl for me to relate to him or enjoy the character.

Oh my god, when you mentioned Slavic characters being the bad guys, never good guys I said, “finally, someone other than me said it.” I’ve yet to see a Slavic character be depicted positively.

I remember loving Static Shock or John Stewart because they were great characters first. It didn’t matter that they were black nor should it. When Static Shock addressed racism, it was done tastefully.

As a young Native American girl I watched Static shock, x men evolution, and Spiderman religiously. It didn't matter that I wasn't the same race, a bang baby, a mutant or bitten by a spider, their stories were amazing to watch. If you need someone to be exactly like you to empathize with them then that's just sad.

People often forget that anyone can be racist, be it a black, white, or asian person. The fact that people forget that is a problem with our modern society. I also really admire that you made this video.

It's sad... I had friends (They are no longer my
friends) They were super WOKE. They were
not bad people but eventually their woke
attitude push me away. The saddest part is
that they were always talking about wanting
a change in the world. One day I heard about
visiting a Senior Retirement Home that was
low in resources. Many of this elders were
abandoned by their families. I thought it
be a nice thing to do. Take some food for
them, play board games and chat with them.
I invited my woke friends. NONE of them
showed up for the event.

It’s funny how their definition of diversity includes making every character the same

What I find problematic is what conclusions teachers or others might jump to when you pick something that doesn’t match up how you look. When I was a boy, I too thought Storm was awesome. Nowadays if I said something like that in grade school I’d have teachers thinking I was some trans egg they had to make it their mission to hatch.

"I don't think you need a character to look like you in order to see yourself in them."

Damn right I don't and I didn't even need the explanation to understand why. I always have and it's a real shame this isn't more commonplace. It's literally the reason why Spider-Man's entire body is covered from head to toe as explained by Stan Lee himself!

The moment you started talking about Dragon Ball Z I was reminded of how American SJW's are accusing Toriyama of racism for not adding enough diversity.

He responded with "This is a Japanese franchise. Made by Japanese people for Japanese people. It's not your show, it's ours."
