In no uncertain terms do "minorities have to fight to prove they exist" Coddling or sympathizing with this type of ludicrous framing does more harm than good in the long term. |
There are tons of issues that underprivileged groups face.
They frequently get harassed when something goes wrong. Some examples on the Sony side, when Santa Monica delayed God of War Ragnarok, Alanah Pearce got a large brunt of harassment for it. Despite the fact that she is just a writer on the game.
The TLOU actress for Abby got attacked for playing that character, as if Abby was the real person. Despite the fact that it wasn't her decision, she wasn't the director or writer.
Not to mention, the other billion problems underprivileged face in all walks of life. Harassment for being in the wrong place. Not getting the benefit of the doubt that a white male would have had in the same situation. Fewer chances of advancement. Underrepresented and blamed.
And no, it is not problematic to talk about it.
People need to grow up and stop trying to feel victimized, every time someone complains about the challenges they face, and stop trying to make these issues about them.
