Could it be said that this is a pattern or that someone who comes to this conclusion is exaggerating?

For example, in many animes the characters are Asian and right-wingers don’t seem to mind. Maybe because most of the characters appear to be white, or because many Japanese animes have an actual cast of white characters. They don’t seem to mind if in a fictional world all the characters are white or Asian, but on the other hand they would mind if in the fictional world all the characters were black or had dark skin. Is this really a fact or an exaggeration?

    For every single piece of corporate media, you can find someone on the internet saying something bad about it.

    Different aspects will invite different types of people.

    For example, casting a non-white person as Snow white, that’ll invite everyone with a pair of eyes to ask why? Or for another example, giving Lara Croft smaller boobs will invite the gooners to say something. Modern Star Trek will invite old trek fans. I can go on.

    Most corporate media these days is made by lefty companies like Disney, so you’ll see more of those kinds of criticism.

    Whether or not it’s legitimate criticism is up to you though.
