White guys, especially men, you need to stand up and complain when racism\sexism is thrown at you. Stop being guilted by disengenuous people with an agenda against you.

as a white, middle aged man, I must ask - why?

I would stand up if BattleTech threw racism/sexism at me, but it doesn't so I don't.

I can handle not being represented in one single game (if that is even the case) without crying for idiotic tokenism.

Yeah, whites are suffering. XD
Your Trump Derangement Syndrome is BEYOND annoying, no matter how much you whine and complain President Trump is still your Commander-in-chief for a few more years. This is a gaming site not a place to spread your malicious immature accusations, I can't be the only person annoyed by this "grown" man's annoying shit-posting, can I? I'm voter agnostic and his incessant crap is making me love the pricks on Steam, at least they are joking...

Fine. I`ll leave you to it then. You don`t want help, I`ll walk away. I won`t help people who knock my hand away.

Goodbye.

Yeah, it gets tedious but you gotta laugh, eh?

I don't want to enter in the merit of the discussion, but scientifically speaking humanity will eventually evolve until we are all dark skinned and with black hair. They are dominant genes, after all, where pale skin and light hair are recessive traits.
Even Asimov in his Foundation made things so, with only very rare colonies that had little interaction with the rest of the species remaining white and blonde.
From a technical standpoint, it stands.

Edit: the premise is that the game is set in the far future.

Let me guess, you guys have both set your home country to "other" because you're wildly ashamed of the raging orange chimp.

I love how the anti-white, pro-black brigade is dismissing the opinion of a black person as if it's nothing but a nuisance, not even worthy of the slightest attention.

It's ok for YOU to extend a hand to black people, but black people extending THEIR hand to you, it's considered impertinence.

You're basically telling the guy to shut up and know his place. YOU, as white men, know better. How progressive.

Yeah, you're all wonderful people. Pat yourselves on the back.

Amazing.

There's something to be said for picking your battles. Argue over every little perceived slight, and you exhaust everyone around you to the point where pointing out something substantial leads to nothing but eye rolls and resigned sighs. Even if BattleTech was the most racist game in the entire world, what's the worst that could possibly happen from letting it slide? It's difficult to imagine the potential good outweighing the bad of burning up your currency with people by being nitpicky about the creative choices of an entertainment product.

But thanks anyway for trying to see things from another perspective. That's not always such an easy feat.
