Nobody's feelings are being hurt of there is a black guy in a video game that has been put there specifically to balance up the racial numbers purely to keep the liberals happy. Their core beliefs about what constitutues a free and open society are though.

The black people don't give a shit, the women don't give a shit, nobody gives a shit apart from.....liberal commentators and media outlets as it gives them some angle to discuss and is easy pickings.

What is this should nonsense? Should why?

Gender is irrelevant and so is race. No, it really is. You want everyone to ignore gender, sexuality, colour but then on the other hand you insist on it being noted and taken into account and constantly drawing attention to it.

Some people get pissed off with that, and by "some" I mean a chunk of the population You alienate those people and they will never respect you or your principles for trying to engineer the social rules of the world.

So if gender/sex is irrelevant by your metric, then why do you care period? 

It seems to me like this is only a problem when a black/minority/female character is introduced. 

Can you unpack that a bit, care about what specific things?

For example gender choice for a role makes it more believeable and relatable.

That's bourne out of artistic choice and direction.

If someone feels that media should be positively discriminated against then they need to get therapy for that belief because it is bourne out of someone controlling their free will and being wired up to pressure from group think and fear of alienation.

There is no rationale to it.
