I'm currently going through Babylon 5 on HBO Max (just started the second season) and I was chuckling to myself because according to the woke left and their cheerleaders in entertainment media there were no women or minorities in TV/Movies prior to a few years ago. Probably the biggest example of this gaslighting was during the obnoxious overhyping of Black Panther. It was like nobody remembered that Blade was a fairly popular movie, and I don't remember them obsessing over the fact that the lead was black. I actually thought Black Panther was pretty good but he seemed to be upstaged in his own movie by the other characters. The second biggest example was the 2016 Ghostbusters. That was the first time I ever noticed the "if you don't like this movie you are an evil person" agenda from critics. They also seemed to act like there was never a movie with a mostly female cast.
I am a firm believer that this obsession with representation/diversity has been the worst thing to ever happen to entertainment. I also never would have dreamed that it would infect the gaming world. It seems to be a very arrogant position to take as well. As a life long comic book collector I can attest to the fact that there are women who are into comics, but I question anyone male or female who can't shut up about how they aren't represented or think that everything must cater to them. You would think these massive companies would know better than to hire people who seem to hate the product and couldn't be bothered to study the lore.
I remember telling one of these diversity obsessed people online that The Cosby Show was one of if not the most popular show of the 80s and they said that it doesn't count because they didn't examine race/black experience. I just stopped talking to him. Although sadly it is those idiots that the companies will bend over backwards for.
I always wanted to ask some of these people that if they are so bothered by the fact that most gamers/comic book fans/sci-fi fans are white males then why don't they find a new hobby.
It's because context can be more powerful than content. It doesn't matter what the truth is exactly, if you can bend and spin something to make your narrative stronger then you can more easily influence other people. This is the "big lie" in action.
In fact if you stand against the truth, because admitting the truth would damage your narrative. The most effective thing is to take an exactly opposite stance to it. This is because most people trust things based on consensus. So if everybody is saying the same thing, it becomes easier to say it yourself.
The anti-white, anti-male, and anti-christian narratives make it so they can never admit those groups helped create Western society as we know it today. They must be blamed for everything, even things that they were trying to prevent.
