The Tricks Of Pushing Diversity
By Leo Gura - February 25, 2026
Notice how this works: If corporations hire activist LGBTQ writers who prioritize gender politics over great writing, then they will write mediocre stories and stupid characters while making the characters minorities and queers, then the fans of those stories will start to hate those characters and hate minorities, then the LGBTQ activists will interpret that as bigotry and hatred of minorities, convincing themselves that their original aim of pushing diversity is even more correct and more needed than they originally thought — thus creating a self-fulfilling cycle. That’s how tricky the epistemics of the mind are. This is the sorcery of self-deception.
The mind does not see how its view of reality creates and validates itself. If you want to push minorities in media, your top priority must be to write solid stories and intelligent characters for them, otherwise your plan will backfire, making minorities look bad. If you want to put a queer into Star Wars or Star Trek, you better write it better than George Lucas and Gene Roddenberry. But that is not happening in today’s corporate environment. If you ruin a Star Wars story in favor of diversity, Star Wars fans will start to hate diversity. Not because they are bigots but because you ruined the thing they love to push your political agenda. The stage Green minority activist will object by saying, “But Leo, it is unfair to demand that minorities require better stories than non-minorities in order for them to be accepted!” Yes! Life is unfair. But that’s the way perception works. You can’t just stick a lesbian black woman into a shitty story and expect people to love it. You have to write a great story, a great character, so that people love it regardless. And blackness and gayness doesn’t automatically make a thing great. That is the harsh reality of the situation. That’s why it’s difficult.
If your worldview is that everyone is a bigot, then your reality will become that everyone is a bigot. You will actually create that reality. So be careful. This is something stage Green political activists don’t understand. Stage Green creates its own reality. This isn’t about race or politics — that is too shallow — this is about Mind constructing reality. Political activists are so blinded by the passion of activism that they completely overlook the constructive nature of Mind, which ends in their activism backfiring and failing.
“But Leo, I don’t care about all this Mind stuff, I just want fairness and equality in society!” Okay. I hope you enjoy failure.
What you really want is Love. And there cannot be Love without proper use of Mind. So don’t be so myopic and take the Mind stuff more seriously. Notice that Green gets in its own way. Insufficient intelligence results in self-interference. Is there a higher intelligence than Green? Absolutely!
Concrete example of what I’m talking about:
Note: I am well aware that black Star Wars actors gets lots of hate mail, death threats, and genuine racist trolling. All of that is true. However, racism and bigotry is not the reason why Star Wars Acolyte got canceled. It was cancelled because the writing was bad, the characters were poorly written, and the show was insanely over-budgeted to the point of being a money-laundering scheme. $180 million dollars for eight 30-minute-long episodes of Star Wars Acolyte?? Are you out of your fucking mind? What kind of scam are you running, Disney? Racism is a convenient excuse in this case. Which does not deny that racism is real. Yes, there are plenty of racist Star Wars fans. Which is why quality writing is all the more important! Star Wars needs to be written so well that it even wins over racists. Imagine if Disney set that as their mission statement: “We will write Star Wars so well that even racists will love it.” That’s powerful! That is the way.
Note: Disney shills sent a letter to YouTube to get Star Wars Man’s channel demonetized for racism and bigotry, when he’s just pointing out how bad the writing is. This is a perfect example of toxic stage Green. See, when you do that, Star Wars fans are gonna hate Green even more. Star Wars Man is the biggest Star Wars fan on YouTube, and you gonna call him a bigot? That’s terrible optics for Green. This kinda thing gets millions of young men voting for Trump. That’s what I mean by backfiring. Green is so horny for hunting bigots that they end up shooting bystanders between the eyes. When you’re hunting the Devil you need to double-check that it’s really him in your crosshairs before you pull the trigger, otherwise the Devil wins.
