Couldn’t they have used the race of men to have non white characters? And if we’ve learned anything in the past few years we’ve learned what kind of show it is when they lead with diversity. I imagine they have not received many outright racist posts. But when not liking a show is racism then this is what happens.
Yep. A story about white elves being dicks in the region of Harad, because the black men there sided with Morgoth would have ticked the diversity boxes. They chose not to do that, because it was never about the actual 'bipoc' in middle earth, it was about overwriting the canon with diverse characters to insert leftist allegory.

Of course. And then we are attacked for seeing through their BS.
