It's an issue of how you approach it. If you say "It makes me a little uncomfortable that there's so much more focus on how other characters react to the lynching than there is on the character who very nearly got lynched", that's a fair statement that can lead to discussion. What a lot of people would say is "The show is racist," which tends to raise tempers and prevent meaningful discussion.

Tbh, I kinda really hate the phrase "it makes me ~uncomfortable" when it comes to issues like this. It always sounds so passive aggressive and fake.

Can't we just honestly say "it's too bad they didn't focus more on the character who nearly got lynched. They had an opportunity to do something different with the portrayal of black characters and they missed it in favor of taking the old tried-and-true route instead"? That's the truth, without saying OMG this show is totes racist!!11
