Lol. Did you get triggered by me factually pointing out it was a pseudo intellectual argument?

"Oh wait, if i notice something is racist or sexist, it must be because I'm thinking like one. Mind BLOWN :U "

So if you see someone bully a disabled person, do you go: "Oh wait, if I think that disabled man can't defend himself, then that means I'm also like the bully thinking that disabled people are weak/can't defend themselves."

That is a major logical fallacy...

Anywho, your world views are ideal but sadly naive. In the real world, -isms exist and affect your life. Telling someone to ignore the lack of minority representation because race doesn't matter allows the people in charge, namely white people, to not be inclusive or strive for change.

Do you think if workers, women, and minorities were told: "Hey, class, gender, race, etc shouldn't matter. Stop trying to be better represented." that women would have gotten to vote and rights, that workers would have better wages, protection, and weekends off (yes it was thanks to worker unions for having weekends off since the 30s), and minorities be treated equally had they not made their voices heard in protests and complaints? The elite/people in charge would have never changed out of benevolence.

Also, I don't mind being called different but it very much depends on the context. It can be used in a positive or negative way. You can't say it's black and white. Even I said I'm not anti white and that diversity in comics doesn't always mean it's good writing.

I'm glad you consider yourself Human and once again you have an optimistic view. But you're against using labels and think people shouldnt care about differences. That's easy to say when you're not the under represented because you're advocating that we keep the status quo.

You: "We should stop making a big deal about race and stuff"

DC/Others: "Oh, ok. I guess we'll all just keep hiring the same white actors since it's the status quo, we're white ourselves and ergo we have a bias for whites than other races"
