I believe you misunderstood my point, by all means celebrate having representation in Motorsports. I was talking about the comments treating that as somehow ruining Motorsports. For me as a person very well represented all over the place it doesnt hurt me to see a woman drive a car, but for the little girls in the world that dream of a racing career it could be the difference in pursuing it or just giving up due to social pressures.
sounds like you’ve not struggled with representation before, when representation is universal then it won’t matter anymore.

I think you ought to change your language to make your point more clear if you actually believe as you do.
“I just care about x, not sure why the race/gender/??? matters” is a common statement meant to diminish those who seek representation.
This is a comment under a meme disparaging those who think that way, to assume I’m agreeing with the comments in the picture is disingenuous at best.
