Okay, now you’re definitely falling prey to the classic GamerGate argument. By putting forth that sentence, you’ve accepted diversity as a virtue/positive. Anime does not need diversity in any aspect. Diversity is not a positive. Variety maybe, but NOT diversity.
Then you said it was undeniable. I mean, you’ve SEEN the weirdos all over the Internet who DO deny it and want to inject wokeness as part of their denial. The article posted even touches on that denial.
You’re trying to use the same argument that did not work in the West. I think using that argument will be just as ineffective today as it was back then.
I'm not falling to anything. I put diversity in quotes for a reason; comedy, shounen, shoujo, sports, romance, seinen, slice of life, etc. and their combinations/permutations therein -- if you want to use the phrase variety for more positive conoctation, I don't really care.
Japanese consumerism dictates what is sold. With global influence, that's changing, but there's a reason why there are various niche genres or topics in anime and manga...because companies realize there's a market for it, and wish to exploit it. That's how things should be.
I thought you might not, but I at least wanted to bring it up so you could think about it. If we don’t want to repeat the past, we can’t make the same mistakes. That kind of thought will lead to the same sadness we have today.

Thanks to the Western influence, some of my favorite genres only occasionally get new entries, instead of multiple games/series per season. I don’t understand why a majority of people think more Western money is a good thing.
I'm in favor of gatekeeping. My original comment was about why the agenda is bullshit, not some argument I'd bother to have with bad faith person on this topic. I find this thread pointless, so I'll end with that.
I want you to consider how your current-day words relate to past arguments against SJWs. Don’t use the same positions that led Western stuff to be infested with wokesters.
That’s not “bad faith”, and I’m not trying to rile you up. I’m offering you advice based on what I’ve seen over the years.
