    Poor representation can come from simple statistical leanings. A primarily white neighborhood will have a primarily white school, for instance. That doesn't mean the school is unintentional racist, but it also means representation could improve. Likewise, the same logic applies to media. A video game only having heterosexual relationship options isn't necessarily spouting off some homophobic agenda. At the same time, non-traditional relationships could be better represented.

    Put simply. If you can prove discrimination. I will fight that battle with you. I will not, however, fight a battle based on blind assumptions.

How can you prove to me that racism is not behind poor representation?
    Because if you make an accusation, the onus is on you prove it. In fact, let's glance back to your WHM is dead thread. You had literally no evidence except your own opinion, and argued down everyone else despite them going so far as to take screenshots. So I know your "beloved tactic" too. You have an opinion—one often entirely unsubstantiated—then expect others to prove it wrong, or deny the proof they provide.
