  1. I have to point out the obvious double standard of people demanding Game of Thrones add more black people while complaining that there's a white character in The Great Wall. So lemme get this straight, if a show that mostly has white people adds a black guy, that's diversity, but a story that's mostly set in China having a white guy is "whitewashing"? What kind of logic is that?

    And don't give me that "institutional power" bullPotato Knishes. The Great Wall was a Chinese production. Unless white people somehow control China as well, they don't have "institutional power", therefore having a white guy in The Great Wall is every bit as "diverse" as putting black people in Game of Thrones. This double standard is dumb.

    Me? I just let the author do whatever they want. Their work shouldn't be dictated by butthurt morons wielding politics.

    1. @gameragodzilla Also there were white people in China back then, just not very many. They are erasing the history of us People of Non-Color (PoNC) in China.

      1. @moonman Yeah. And there are historical records that some Roman Legions managed to make their way to China, too.
