Representation by overrepresenting is the new norm it seems. I never even liked the token black character they shoved into everything back in the day because we gotta have a black guy on the group. The shit they do now you would have in a group of 6 where there are 4 blacks, one trans lesbian and maybe a gay white guy if you are lucky. I look fondly back at the token black guy because at least he wasn't preaching about how bad he has it as a black guy.
Agreed. I always roll my eyes at the obligatory “I’m so oppressed speech” though it’s hilarious to see a young black person say that and of course nobody is allowed to push back against the narrative
