If you wanna know why the internet is ok with white people dying instead of minorities, this might be a bit cynical, but I guess I\\\'d point to the fact anyone who isn\\\'t white is dubbed a \\\"minority.\\\" Whites are the majority. One white person dies, it\\\'s a drop in the bucket. BUT MINORITIES! *gasp* there\\\'s only a MINOR amount of them! Any single one of them dying for stupid racially insensitive reasons IS a big deal! Plus in RealLife white people are like TheEmpire, so when a white person dies it\\\'s like when a Storm Trooper dies. Hey, Storm Troopers even wear white armor! Coincidence? =D

.... But, like I said, I don\\\'t speak for the internet.

And side note: I\\\'d be just as vehement against this example on the YMMV page even if you swapped the ethnicity of the characters to having all the survivors be white and the dead peeps be minorities.
