> doing the above for reasons of “representation” or “education” rather than entertainment

That's basically never the case. People assume it is because they don't like seeing a diverse cast and come up with that excuse.

You may very well think that and keep going to the movies, but a large segment of the population sees this as explicit and implicit criticism of aspects that are integral to themselves (white skin, a Y chromosome, conservative beliefs) and won't watch anymore.

  • Those people are part of the problem and best left behind IMO.

    • Learn nothing and you'll keep losing. You'll never leave 40-60% of the population "behind" (who are you to define "the problem"? What's next, "the solution"? Chilling and revealing language) and it's outrageous this notion ever occurred to you in the first place.
