He did not say he wanted to ban images, that is an exaggeration. I see the danger as polluting the historical record with fake images (even as memes/jokes), and spreading wrong preconceptions now backed by real-looking images. This is all under the assumptions there are no bad actors, which makes it even worse. I would say; don't ban it, but you morally just shouldn't do it.
The real danger is that this anti-racism starts a justified round of new racism.
By lowering standards for black doctors do you think anyone in their right mind would pick black doctors? No I want the fat old jew. I know no one put him in the hospital to fill out a quota.
