Is lack of gender/racial diversity valid criticism?

The funniest thing about this is how clearly the person who made this is pushing an agenda. 2 of these characters are from Heavy Rain - a game where you also play as Madison.

Nathan Drake is now gone and a biracial female has replaced him.

Same thing with Joel- replaced by Ellie.

Aiden from Watch Dogs has been replaced by a black character.

Sheppard is biracial and clearly not white.

GTAV also has a black protagonist.

Ditto for Resident Evil 5. And the franchise general has featured multiple female characters.

Far Cry 3's character was replaced with an indian character in Far Cry 4.

Most of the others I do not know who they are. 

Yes and? The point is white males are more than well represented in modern gaming. Anyone who's denying that is simply blind. 

The topic is about lack of diversity though. I'm pointing out that there's not. Games are also made in the NA and Europe where the majority is white. White males are well represented but that doesn't mean that there is a lack of diversity. Anyone denying that is simply blind.
