I’m good on seeing a character lynched and my dash and twitter is giving me plenty of Ambrose as the side character. I passed on Buffy too back in the day. I’d rather not invest too much time in something that gonna make me root for her just to watch her die in the end. I went through Sleepy Hollow for that and a few other shows. Don’t want a repeat.
It’s not just ‘overzealous activist” (wow really?) folks are past tired of seeing our characters be treated like shit in the hands of white writers for the uplifting of white characters. Come on. Black and Brown folks and characters deserve better than that
