Truthfully, their calls to pick up the little man and pull him up is a bit disingenuous... there's a lot of things about Hollywood culture that can be pointed to that reinforces the "ails" in American society, for example, their obsession with violence, especially gun violence.

Yes I agree that the motivation is profit over "social justice" here. Much in the same way that Disney / Marvel are going to be ALL OVER the Black Panther franchise now that they've realised that there's an absolutely massive and largely untapped mainstream market there.
