    I haven’t watched this show or movie or whatever it is, but my comment was more in general.

    If movie is bad and the lead is a white guy the studio and director and everyone involved kinda just shrugs and goes “whoops” but when it’s got a minority/POC lead and it ranks they seem to almost always accuse the viewers of just being racist incels instead of just admitting there might have been other issues with the film.

      That’s because every time the lead is a minority, there ARE a lot of racist incels review bombing them. If you dislike a movie and don’t like being called racist, consider the possibility that they’re not talking about you. It’s like a reverse Goomba Fallacy.

      100% agreed, I just wanted to put in my thoughts. Could’ve been a parent comment I suppose but some of my points were building on yours.
