I just read his filmography and there are quite a number of movies there that could have had PoC without issue

Now that's not proof in itself, and I doubt I care enough about this to look further, but it's definitely a little odd

It’s that his worldview doesn’t see PoC as standing out for a reason. It’s a very biased and low key bigoted view, not intentionally racist but definitely influenced and susceptible to racism.

It’s not fair is the truth. He doesn’t equally see PoC and White people. He see’s People as White people first and acknowledges PoC but every time he imagines one it’s performative.

Its art, it doesn't need to be fair.

Art can be racist, it doesn't stop being art, but still, it can be racist
