It's serving a specific market. Is it discriminatory that Maybelline, the makeup company, doesn't...embrace...men? or that there are specific makeup lines for people with dark skin? or light skin? Is it discriminatory that there exist companies that translate books only into Estonian, a language that very people read? Clearly they should also do Spanish and Xhosa to be "non-discriminatory," despite selling only in Estonia. DramaFever focused initially on Asian content; is that discriminatory? People wanted that stuff, and then paid for it. Just like tall people buy pants that are longer, and there's an IDE specifically for Ruby! (Positive discrimination, I cry!!) To demand that every company do everything is ridiculous. It is very American to think that focusing on Afro-diaspora culture is somehow "racist" or "discrimination." The company is launching in France, Belgium, Switzerland, Senegal and Ivory Coast. Why would they stream Iranian movies as their first move? Should they also include documentaries and calculus lessons? Why pick one group, one business goal? Because they'd like to have a successful business and that's how you start. |
