I came across one of those "it's not for you" articles. Basically saying the same thing we have gotten used to hearing regarding diversity/representation. It basically said that those who don't like diversity should not watch it and it isn't for us. I long ago gave up trying to explain that diversity for the sake of diversity is poison for entertainment and that I don't care what color they are, but if the show exists to peddle fake narratives (racism/sexism) then the show will fail.
I waved the white flag a while back and just decided with few exceptions to only watch/read stuff from 2014 and prior. Luckily with video games I am a Skyrim addict and with mods I can play forever. I doubt Bethesda would go woke with Elder Scrolls 6 and Starfield.
What I don't understand is this. Why is it they can tell us "don't watch it" or "it's not for you" but they get so upset if we suggest the same thing. Like if a new show comes out that doesn't meet the woke mafia's standard for diversity/representation why can't we just say "well if the cast is too white then it isn't for you or you can just watch something else"
And one thing I will never understand as a lifelong comic book reader/collector is why so many feminists get into comic books or gaming for that matter if they hate the hobby so much. I've known plenty of female fans or gamers who legitimately like the hobbies but I doubt they would be able to get a position with those companies. Perfect example of this is that lady that is in charge of the She-Hulk show. She can't shut up about how evil white male nerds are and how horrible western literature is but she has no problem making money off of a character created by a white guy. Oh yea, that is another triggering thing. Telling these people to make their own material.
But does anyone have any idea why this mindset or double standard exists? Sometimes I feel like an oddball because I am a 40 year old black American and I understand that the U.S. is majority white, so I am not going to throw a fit when most of the entertainment is done by whites. Plus I think someone has personal issues if they have to see themselves represented in everything they watch. But what do I know.

Why's that? The existence of an outlier does not prove the rule to be false.
Making it purely about politics doesn't make sense, because some of these things are targeted at people too young to vote.
Actually, it does. When you make an assertion about an entire group, as you did, even one example would be sufficient to debunk your claim. Not to mention that you haven't substantiated your usual craziness either. As if most women even care about your hobby, unless you're in a relationship with them...
If you can't see, even now, that they're destroying our things out of spite, I don't know what to say.
Who is this 'they' you keep talking about?
I certainly don't see that "women" are doing that. Rabid feminist shrews do. The overwhelming majority of women don't care either way.
