If you think monsters in a fantasy game represent POC, then you are the racist and you need to stop forcing your bias onto other peoples fun pastime.

Forgotten Realms was one of the settings I owned and there were numerous examples of POC based cultures. Complete and utter silliness, racist to boot.

Goblin-kin keep slaves. It's a huge part of their culture. Try again.
I make statements and express myself through game design. Racism within the fantasy worlds which I create is a thing, you've got kingdoms who have been waring over the same stretch of land for centuries. You've got Kingdoms that are evil, or shunned because they once were. The orcs of my worlds are predictable and an ever present threat, but the real true evil at play isn't the monsters; it's the people. An orc can't lie to save his life, he doesn't even bother trying. If I want to make a racist statement with my game; first off I can do that if I want to. If I do then the characters either except it or they do something about it, but if I do do that I'm not going to hide it.
Besides, if orcs represent any culture it would be Nazi Germany, not POC.

Agreed, I think the point is that how you run your game does not indicate that you are a racist in real life. How you treat people and behave in the everyday is the thing that answers that question, Yea or Nay.
