What I want is, I want for everyone to be able to write the stories that they want to write and find interesting, and I want a system that doesn't over-privilege white creators or subjects and that allows POC creators and POC stories to get told in equal amounts. And personally I want to read those stories.

What I don't want is a witch hunt against anyone who is telling stories that don't include POC. And don't say for a second that's never happened.

You seem intent on putting me on a side in this issue that I never claimed to be on. You clearly have an agenda in this argument that I do not. What I actually care about is history, and what pisses me off is bullshit claims about history that are agenda or bias-driven. I think people are full of shit when they try to claim that racism didn't exist in medieval times and every third princess in England was a black woman, and I think people who claim POC were nonexistent and women did nothing in medieval times are full of shit, too. The problem is, one of these sides is reflected far more often in media.

I don't really care what people write fantasy stories about. And I don't think every medieval historical novel must include a sword-fighting woman and a POC. I only care when people justify their complete lack of POC and women with arguments that pose as historical but are not actually historical.

I agree entirely with your historical claims, and if that's all that you're saying, fine.

I think there's an obvious sense in which those historical claims impinge on various arguments about media, and in this context, that's what I'm arguing against. But if that's not what you're on, fair enough.
