And yet for decades now most Disney movies have ostensibly been set in quasi-Medieval Europe, except for the few instances where they went out of their way to do something different (Pocahontas, Mulan, Lilo & Stitch, etc.). And those exceptions used original stories with POC characters to begin with. An outcry of this fervor would make sense if this were a company known for taking all-white settings and changing them, but they have never really done this, unless Princess and the Frog can be said to count.

I don't know. I suppose they can be accused of always sticking to more of the same and not stepping out of the box, but I think you'd have to be thinking too hard in order to see a malicious agenda. I guess as a POC, I'd be angrier over instances where representation is actively being taken away from me (as in cases of whitewashing) rather than in situations where I never realistically expected these companies to do anything different than what they've been doing for years anyway.
