When someone who isn’t white (or who isn’t straight, or especially who is transgender) is present in a popular film, television show, or video game.
Since when could the magical elves in this video game be BLACK PEOPLE? All this forced diversity nonsense, man…

1: When an already established IP is purposely distorted to appease certain groups of people in the name of inclusion and diversity while disregarding the original properties lore.
2: When a character's Race, Sex, Sexuality, or identity is changed from the already established IP.
3: Forced diversity is usually solely applied to popular IP to insert groups that weren't a part of the medium ( this is often done poorly) Usually, the lore and story are put secondary behind the diversity and inclusion agenda.

Film Director: "This film about the history of Eskimos just isn't diverse enough. Get the casting agent to find a few black lesbians, and we'll create a storyline for them."
Film Producer: "But wouldn't that be, like, forced diversity?"
Film Director: "Who cares, the liberals will love it, and we'll be eligible for Oscar nominations next year".

The method SJWs used to relieve their white guilt. Sometimes it just means no male, as SJWs are just a bunch of delusional white girls with mental health and daddy issues.

A term used when major companies change the race, sexuality or gender of characters in already established IP’s, or in historical events, of which are decades old and is unnecessary, and (usually) do not add any value to the material.
Almost always changing white characters to black, straight characters to gay characters, or gender swapping characters.
Never used in a genuine inclusive way as presented and almost always used to put more money in the pockets of large businesses by attempting to appeal to the “woke” demographic. Sometimes changes the entire point of the original story or the outcome of a historical event in an attempt to further appeal to the “woke” audience.
When this term is brought up, “woke” people will often call you racist, sexist, misogynistic, homophobic, or transphobic.

Business 1: “let’s make a movie about Thomas Edison but he’s black and a girl, and let’s change the lesson of the story to be about women’s empowerment.”
“Woke” viewers: “This is amazing and absolutely the right decision to make! 10/10 movie.”
Business 2: “Let’s make a movie about Martin Luther King Jr. but let’s make him white and make the lesson of the movie about men’s mental health.”
“Woke” viewers: “You can’t do that! You are racist and misogynistic!”
Person 1: “I don’t like that they made Ariel from The Little Mermaid black, it was unnecessary and seems like forced diversity to me.”
“Woke” person 2: “You are racist for not liking the fact that she is black, I am going to cancel you on Twitter!”
