I want to start by saying that one of my favorite shows of all time is Sense8 by Netflix. It is one of the most diverse shows ever made until today and it was breathtaking, strong and beautiful.. you know why? Because it had depth, quality, everything made sense and most importantly it wasn't forced. All the LGBTQ+ representation (and there was so much of it), diversity and everything worked flawlessly.
My point is
Everything got too political in our day and we just want unbiased entertainment. I personally don't want any political views regardless of the side (conservative, liberal, progressive, centrist doesn't matter which side it belongs to) shoved down our throats. Unless it is a show/movie about politics of our day, then you could run wild with it.
Make good Movies / TV, not propaganda.
My point is
- Diversity = Good
- Forced diversity in the name of being progressive, to fill a quota = Bad
- Strong female lead = Good (Alien, Kill Bill, Annihilation etc)
- Man bashing female empowerment just for the sake of it = Bad (Starwars, the new Ghost Busters etc)
