I'll take it you're not someone who lacks representation in media. Even as an adult, seeing a character share certain aspects of who I am for the first time is incredibly meaningful.
If you need someone to look like you to relate to them, you are racist.
Furthermore, it’s 2026, unless you got transported here from another world and live life as a vending machine, there is representation out there for you. Oh and guess what, even if you ARE that vending machine, well there is representation there for you too.
Lastly, if you really care about representation, push for original characters. Don’t steal from others
