Agreed with pretty much all of this! I don’t think there’s a conspiracy, although I don’t really believe in conspiracies. But I do agree with the people that find some of the voting base suspect.

But that aside, as someone who loved both Mitchells vs. The Machines and Encanto, I do genuinely believe that Encanto deserved to win just as much as M v. M, if not more. So I’ve been a bit put off by how big mad my friends and mutuals have been about it on Twitter. It’s fine when they drag Disney as a company, I’m all for that. And it’s fine if they think Encanto didn’t deserve the win. But the amount of vitriol, conspiracies, and other rather rude tweets took me by surprise. And made me a bit uncomfortable, so I didn’t say anything, as I can be kind of bad with conflict.

But a lot of my mutuals were singing the praises of Encanto for it’s diversity and cultural representation just as much as they were doing the same for M v. M’s LGBTQ+ representation. So the complete 180 they did just because of Encanto winning the Oscar was wild. And they genuinely don’t seem to see the hypocrisy of hashtagging #OscarsSoWhite in the past, and being upset that a movie about a Latino family won over a white family. It’s just like you said.

Yeah. Both movies were great, but TBH even if MvM was obviously the best movie of the nominees, I'd be suspicious if this year of all years the judges had decided quality mattered over studio popularity. Hell, if Luca and Encanto hadn't been released this year I would've been slightly suspicious if Mitchells won over Raya, and Raya was crap.
