I had to laugh about the Archive shitting all over themselves like proper SJW's over "muh nagger protagonist"
Socially considerate =/= SJW

We're not actively discriminating against people who have different opinions than us on the matter.

I'll give you that. I still think holding the position of giving a shit about the virtual presentation of the player in a sandbox because some people who don't even play games are and/or were off killing/enslaving/generally being human to some other people who don't play video games is stupid and toxic to the medium.

Which makes perfect sense from a purely gameplay perspective, but you're forgetting that the Archive primarily deals with the story, not the gameplay.

This is definitely going to be like Halo2. I suspect that during the time John is just walking through endless wastelands, doing next to nothing else, we'll be playing as Locke.

I do. Racism has been eliminated in in the 26th century. So it's strange how all the leadership posistions are held by white people...

Erm... You do realize that nobody [that I know of] is saying that the Haloverse had racist undertones, or that Locke eliminates the chance of there being one right? It's just nice to see a diverse racial background for the protagonists of the series. It's not like people are saying that his skin color is a character trait instead of just a neat external observation.

While the Halo series is set during the 26th century, it's produced here and now. It's not some vision from the actual future, it's written by 21st century people.

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.
Interesting.
