I don’t think it’s stupid to get mad, the point is, it shows clear as a day when it’s actually about having a casting diversity and when it’s about just making a point by forcing sub standard stuff down people’s throat and shaming then when they don’t like it, because you casted a diverse cast. It’s totally okay to rip on when they retell the same stories, don’t develop their own characters and just lazily replace a previous one with an all able minority representation who just can’t be wrong about anything.
Yes, the message is for fans to not go overboard but it’s also just as much as for the production houses to create original content around diverse performers instead of just putting them as substitutes

But that’s not what a lot of people complain about. They complain about diverse casting and nothing to do with the film itself.
