Notice literally none of my post not once said the word hatred.

You are correct that you never typed the word. But you directly accused me of hate by deflecting my use of the word back at me. Your exact words were "That is what you are saying." The word that, in this context, referred to hatred. You were directly accusing me of hatred.

Anyway, I don't care about Beauty and the Beast. It was just an offhanded example.

All I'm saying is that hardline quotas can potentially get in the way of certain stories. There may be times where having a predominant ethnic group can contribute to a story rather than detract from it. (I extend that courtesy to all peoples.) If you disagree, you disagree. Maybe you feel in earnest that literally every story, regardless of setting, would benefit from the diaspora of humanity comprising the majority of cast members rather than any individual ethnic group. But don't project bigotry if someone else feels otherwise. That's too great of an assumption to say that it's the only reason someone might disagree.

I've even said that 80% of stories would benefit from having half or more of the cast be comprised of members of underrepresented groups.
