Maybe you should reread OP's post. The last line they literally say it's unnatural for people to treat women and other races as equals, which is completely untrue. That is a learned behaviour. Also just the entire premise of the post is to ask if it's weird to have equality in shows lol, if you weren't bothered by it you wouldn't bring it up

Well the mods have decided I don't get to read it again, but I remember the word natural was in quotes, which implies OP did not intend it mean they agreed with it. And they were right about strong oppressing weak out-groups throughout history, which is what I would wager is what they meant by "natural". "Traditional" or "historically" would have been a better word choice.
