These people exist, but I am extremely skeptical that this is the primary motivator for the droves of negative reviews. What major media production isn’t diverse?
This reminds me of the controversy around Ghostbusters 2016 where people claimed review bombers hated the movie because of the female cast.
I would say it is much more likely that these well-loved properties had botched adaptations and that is why so many people are raking it over the coals.
