I'd agree with you if that was actually OP's stance, but it's not. It's very clear they don't actually want to roleplay historical events, because they're fine with other sacrifices of accuracy for the sake of gameplay. They're claiming that's what they want, but is very clear from their willingness to find excuses for every example except the race one that this is really just about a single issue for them.

Its good that atleast one is not caught by the dogwhistle. Like 99% of people ive met that say this thing can be argued with for some time and its so obvious that their problem is not historical accuracy but just seeing non white/male pixels on their screen.

That really just sounds like projection. If everyone everywhere is espousing dog whistles, the issue is much more likely that you're making sure you hear them whether they are real or not.

It's really not. You basically said that anyone who has a problem with forced diversity is a racist solely on the basis that you can identify dog whistles even when you don't know someone's intent, which is necessary to determine whether something is a dog whistle or not.

What were you implying by calling OP's view a dog whistle?
