A lot of people in this thing are replying to OP like they're experts on racism. Are any of us? It seems like a lot of people think racism has to be truly, actively hateful and antagonizing to be considered racist.

What kind of studies do you need to take to be an "expert" on racism? ? Why is one commenters opinion more valuable than another? They arent omitting 'certain' races there are no races in the game. Just colors!! People are taking this way too far when we could have better personalities, worlds, consequences by now ?
There are no "races" of human either, just colours, and yet here we are. Race is a made up concept. But it still matters. And representation matters. People should be able to see Sims who look like them and tell their stories.
And why is this an either/or thing? Who says one has to come at the expense of another? Give us diversity of colours and shapes, and personality, behaviour, etc.
Why do you get to decide what's "too far?" Why do you get to decide what's actually important?
When people say something is important to them, why do you feel the need to say "that actually doesn't matter, you should want this instead!" I can want both. I can want something different from you.
I'm just pointing out that this thread reads like a lot of white people telling BIPOC what racism is and what it isn't, and it's gross. Racism isn't an "opinion" though. That much is certain.
