Was this the picture in the deleted tweet or something else?

Pretty sure it was different, but because of the background scenario. Her face doesn't change.

"Our cast is representative of the world."

Where did this shit come from? This whole drive to be seen in the media you watch?

I remember hearing about it during the Rings of Power media drive with "middle-earth" fans saying "Now I can finally enjoy this show because someone in it has the same shade of skin color as me".

A) How were you a fan before that was the case?
B) Are you so racist that you cannot enjoy media featuring people that don't have the same skin color as you?

If this were the case then what the fuck was I doing growing up absorbed into Hong Kong cinema, watching Eddie Murphy standup VHS until the tape wore out, listening to Jimi Hendrix and my father's Robert Johnson, Buddy Guy and B.B King tapes, getting together with friends at the weekend to watch episodes of Mahabharat.

This show was so good.

"We are representing the world".

You are supposed to represent Greece. Mythologies are not comic books, it's woven into the culture and history to the people who built them. As is the case for all mythologies all over the world.

This one is from Dune. Duke Leto and his Benihana wife.
The other was this one from Odyssey

We are representing the world

No, you are representing current US and Britain.

You are not representing the country and era you should be representing with this story.
