Of course people can, that's your issue. Betsy in both her movie appearances were of Asian origins in universe, they weren't white women stuck in Asian bodies. It's a clean slate, that's why it's an adaption not a retcon. Why are you talking about the comics, the discussion is about the movies. What happened in the comics don't apply here. I was referring to the twins identity as white people.
DC has been addingg diversity in their movies for years, and in their tv shows in both departments. Vixen was a supporting character for years in Legends. Katana's appeared routinely on Arrow. Dr. Light and XS were on Flash. Mr. Michael Holt was in the supporting cast for Arrow. Monica Rambeau is in both Captain Marvel movies and Wanda Vision. Cyborg's a lead in Doom Patrol. The Black Lightning tv show. Luke Cage got a tv show on Netflix. Phillipus was in the Wonder Woman DCEU movie. There's so much more, as well, how long have you been following that media because you've missed the diversity of minority characters on those shows that you're complaining about. Rather than increase diversity you'd prefer that media to have even less diversity than they do now? OK. Man of Steel would be extra white with those conditions. I dislike the idea that a characters race means nothing if they're white in other media, as ifs this isn't also representation. Do you hate Iris being black in Flash?
Except you've ignored when the companies do that and want more white characters in adaptions instead over racial diversity. Picking between elevating POC characters in the comics and changing white characters into a minority is a false choice, we have both.
