Again, the fact that they're not at war with Omnics
to:
Again, the fact that they\'re not at war with Omnics \"in general\" isn\'t the issue. Like most groups that are at war, their propaganda serves to demonize the entire group of people, whether they\'re combatants or not. Like the Japanese during World War II, and Arabs during the War on Terrorism.
The giant robots are [[http://overwatch.gamepedia.com/Svyatogor human-piloted mechs]], so that\'s not really relevant.
Lastly, the fact that the company has to maintain its image \'\'to correspond with national racism\'\' is itself racist. It\'s basically no different than a business that publicly or implicitly denies black people entry because most of their paying customers are racists. It\'s part of the system of racism.
This argument is stemming from a misconception of what racism actually is: it\'s not a foaming-at-the-mouth murderous rage at the targeted group(s). It\'s a system of behavior, some of which may seem benign without context, that continues to foster, or profit from, the harm or mistreatment of those groups. The trope itself doesn\'t state it has to be foaming-at-the-mouth rage, either. Simply a fictional allegory of real life racism which, as I mentioned with two examples above, it does.
