I agree with this - it should be fine to hate a PoC character for the personality they have, and not about their skin.

Let me give an example - Vivienne de Fer of Dragon Age: Inquisition. I hate her, but it is nothing to do with her being brown-skinned and everything to do with her political beliefs i.e. that the Circle system should be reinstated. I also respect her as a character because she is a very strong character. None of the reasons that I both hate her and respect her is because of her skin.

People can hate a PoC character for reason unrelated to their skin.

And if you're going to have a diverse cast, you might as well cast all the archetypes and roles. See Zeke and Doug Judy on Brooklyn Nine-Nine as characters who are supposed to be annoying and unlikable.
