    I don’t think we have any duty to depict diversity in any builds, but we do have a duty to accept diversity in our group. We are limited to what Lego creates and sells. If Lego begins adding ethnic heads into their sets, I am sure that we would all embrace that (at least I hope we would) and they would be incorporated more heavily in our displays. I see enough hate, racism, reverse-racism, sexism, elitism, or any other type of “ism” on Facebook, TV, and in the world, that I honestly don’t want to deal with it when I am building/displaying and having fun with the public. My apologies if I offended anyone by not including an -ism that is very near and dear to their heart. The majority of our builds are for kids (who are the least racist of anyone) and they don’t think about things like that. People are people. I don’t care what color you are, what your religion is, your beliefs, etc. Just don’t be a jerk. My apologies if I offended anyone by not including their specific identity identifier in my example. I wish Lego would move away from yellow heads and produce more skin tones. In the meantime, my train robbing gang will continue to be Friend’s themed women lead by Emma. Because we all know Emma is narcissistic and purely evil. Not all women are narcissistic and evil, that would be sexist. But Emma is. And that is a fact. My apologies if I offended anyone who thinks Emma is kind and loving. But she isn’t. She is evil. And she will rob your train without hesitation.
