I feel like often criticism of how representation is done in media is really just veiled criticism that it’s normalized in the show.

It’s like representation should only be blatant and pandering (so it can be called woke by the same people) or so far in the background it’s easy to ignore it or not catch it if you’re not who’s being represented.

I love that it’s just business as usual in these shows and the representation is organic, because that’s real life.
