not sure this is correct. We may need to get actual numbers or divide up 'film / media' into different segments..
I recall seeing news about big movies, eg transformers and others where in order to satisfy the global market, ie China, decisions needed to be made.. and given that many of those markets appear to be more racist/anti-muslim, (obv not 100, but majority I believe)
and your comment seems to be suggesting [hope] that things above "will get better as the global market continues to expand." -
I'm not chiming in to say this or that is a good or bad thing, just trying to clarify that some things may make one think catering to broader global markets may not make "western whiter countries" more anti-racist or whatever is being suggested as 'changing and will get better' - if that is the perspective being considered for 'get better'.
There are studies showing "diversity" on movie posters hurt sales abroad - and of course there has been local pushback for whitewashing things for increased sales -
Unless we are talking about gov funded wokeness spreading where making money is not a goal. But I did not get that impression from the thread here.
