>The method of Rings of Power of just randomly making every fourth character black is just silly (feels like a decade ago this would've been called "tokenism" and universally detested).

They went to each Middle Earth group and added one or two non-white characters. It's the old 90s and early 00s flavor of "diversity". On top of that, the finale either killed or excluded almost all of their "diverse" cast.

Hollywood has had a diversity problem for a long time, especially compared to other forms of entertainment, like music and sports. I feel like the diversity in RoP was done in bad faith.
