It also directly killed a woman because they had to make Domino black with a huge afro, so the stunt woman wasn't wearing a helmet (so you could see her big afro and that she was black) and crashed and died.
So Deadpool unironically has a literal death count for its wokeness.
Don't forget that the stunt double was horribly under qualified, because having a qualified white person wear a costume to look like a black woman would be racist.
I found out through watching interviews from the Viking Samurai that Hollywood has been doing this DEI nonsense from well before DEI became an ESG standard.
It turned out that they were trying to do the same kind of race-mandated nonsense even back in the 90s for crew and stunts. A producer was talking about how Hollywood execs came to the set one day on Marked For Death after receiving a complaint from a Karen, and were chastising the producers and film crew for having Chinese stunt guys with brown face paint and dreadlock wigs for the fight scenes with Seagal because they were his students, and non-students were known for being notoriously injured by Seagal during his fight scenes, so crew and Seagal all preferred the safety of working with his students because they knew how to sell his moves and, most importantly, knew how to take the falls without having their limbs broken.
The producer was being chewed out by the execs who were complaining that it was "racist" having Chinese dress up as black guys and that they needed to hire actual black guys for the stunts.
The producer soundly told them that the Chinese were actually qualified to take the falls and that they were able to get through filming the fight scenes relatively quickly thanks to them being trained, which required fewer takes and less set resets. What got the execs' attention is when the producer said, "Would you rather us waste more money hiring untrained black stunt crew to waste more money risking them being injured and hospitalised and delaying the filming of the film just to get the right races in the roles for being thrown around?"
When he explained to them the risk of having untrained minorities injured, high hospital bills as a result, and delayed filming (which would bloat the budget -- and at their current production schedule I believe he mentioned that they were under budget at the time when the execs showed up) the execs quickly shut up and left the set.

He spoke in the universal language of money.
