It was too.. staged.. set up. Let's face it: a situation was specifically created to bid minorities.

I mean, people are actually counting how many minorities were given bids. Pictures of the ADPi colony are being tracked down to see if there are any darker faces in the crowd.
The word you are looking for is "tokenism."
