The philosopher Slavoj Zizek's observation of #metoo and its ultimate desire to take power and revenge is true here, yet it is also entirely correct when utilized to critique the fury and discussion occurring around The Witcher controversy, as well. The minority actors hired to fulfil the role of European, Caucasian characters have not been advertised, interviewed, or publicly discussed being chosen due to their acting prowess, love or obsession with the material, and how they plan to be as authentic to the themes and essence of the material. Indeed, the entire television series seems clouded by the ‘bourgeois liberal individualism’ which has permeated throughout North American film and television. Instead of a marketplace of cultural ideas permitting minorities in Western countries to tell their own original stories, these minorities are given the status of ‘underdogs’ who must ‘punch up’ past their own metaphorical cultural weight-class in order to compete with the Western fables and tales of old. Therefore it is perfectly just and applicable in this twisted view to recast the voice actors of The Lion King, or The Little Mermaid, or indeed The Witcher, with minority-casting, done solely to fill this delusional political narrative. Or indeed, to change the entire thematic structure of the story to enforce a new radical political and social stance; regardless of whether or not it is applicable to the material; which seems so often maliciously appropriated out of a sense of vengeance and financial gain, rather than the genuine invocation of art and expression. This sends a dangerous message to non-Western cultures that they must either adapt European fables, tales, and folkstories and then recreate these tales with their ‘ethnic twist,’ entirely devoid of universal morality, expression, emotion, or purpose beyond fulfilling a marketing niche designated by a corporation.

...or else fail to gain any meaningful exposure in the monopoly of distribution.
Certainly, it is the half a dozen corporations which control over ninety percent of the media companies in North America and Europe, those which hold the vast majority of media projection, marketing, and financial resources, to empower Non-Western nations to create their own media, which reflects their own unique and intriguing stories, and successfully export that content globally, so that the world can be elucidated to content beyond the narrow corporate purview of Western media’s cartel-like grip on culture-creation. It is no coincidence that Netflix, the producers of The Witcher series, have also given Western audiences utterly incredible and beautiful documentaries, television series, and films from Non-Western culture groups which otherwise never would have had successful market-exposure. I cannot stress enough that the telling of many original stories from many cultures, Western and Non-Western, should be thoroughly encouraged. In the current media climate, the exact opposite is occurring- a blatant cannibalization of itself to the alter of ‘diversity' which ironically shuts out the very diverse voices which are well-deserved to be heard, seen, and felt.
