Compare entertainment and gaming from the 80's/90's/'00s. It was way more extravagant, creative, real and focused much more in the development than in the end or the final message.
After 2012, Affirmative Action rotted down things. If you have a protagonist/major character that can be labeled as a minority, you'll have a character that focuses much more on imposing themselves to other "majority" characters or making them look like weaklings.
Back in '80s, men and women; blacks and whites; cis and effeminates/tomboys alike had their own share of uniqueness, importance and personality to the plot. Now cis white males are more like stepping stones for minorities.
What was escapist fun became a bastion for political propaganda.
And the tyranny of: "if you disagree with this, you are a bigot!"
If that's being a bigot. I am a proud bigot, then!

@nebelstern so its bad that black people and women are in more roles in media?
can I ask why people being white and straight was not a political agenda and why gay and black is?

That's a scarecrow. A big one.
Back into the golden days of western pop culture, blacks and women had significant roles. Major ones, at that.
My issue is more over "I am an empowered minority and if you doubt my skill for not even knowing me, you are prejudiced."
I don't like overly submissive women in art. But something I hate more than that is characters that are moody over the function of being women or black.

I never remember white straight men being funded by worldwide companies, philanthrophists and others just for... you know, they being straight white males.

An exception to this rule is Hitler, who was funded by the german elites at the time.
