I'm tired of this overemphasis on diversity spilling into our entertainment.

The entire thing is stupid. Diversity for diversity's sale isn't diversity at all, it's pandering. It doesn't help that most arguments for this forced "diversity" don't hold up even under their own rules (ex. "If it doesn't matter what gender the character is, then why can't they be a woman?" Because that would imply is does matter for the simple reason that it was suggested and that ignoring the suggestion could result in a shitstorm)

And what is and isn't diversity for diversity's sake? As I said before, the issue seems to be that people are so used to the default of male-dominated media that when it starts to change and diversify people take issue to that. People that are saying that it should just be determined by merit are ignoring the disadvantage that already exists in the industry, and in order to be resolved it cannot just be brushed aside, it has to be combated.

Like in the new Far Cry, how there are a number of black enemies to fight despite the area it takes place in having a very small black population.
