What is it with sims players thinking they're "fixing" townies by making them pale/and or white?

i mean sims is a big hobby of mine and i’m capable of focusing on multiple things at once, pointing out weird shit that sim youtubers do doesn’t mean i’m incapable of also fighting actual real life racism. the two don’t negate each other. the penny pizzaz one in particular is for sure lighter, and “the sim community” (lol) absolutely has a problem with making same-faced pale skinny white sims with button noses. and people can play their game however they wish, but if a sim youtuber is posting makeovers where they turn every sim into paler more conventionally attractive versions of themselves, im allowed to say that it’s…strange. i agree with you overall, but the whole point of the sims is to craft ur own world and if ur world is made up Only of pale/white people that’s just…kinda weird! but my opinion doesn’t affect the way people play their game, so yall please don’t get all angry like “wahahwah you’re trying to control my game.” i’m just some guy :)
