"The point that was being made, however, was that white Lexa and white Finn were given tasteful deaths while POC Lincoln was not allowed that dignity becoming yet another example to feed into the systemic racism in this show"

If Lexa wasn't given a romantic death. The LGBT community would be in more of an uproar than now. Could you imagine if Lexa was killed by a stray bullet and then left to die in the woods with no one around. That would be horrible, for everyone. They needed to make Lexa's death as smooth as possible. And Finn was such a big character in season one and the first half of season two. He was Clarke's love interest, and Raven's love interest, he was a role model for a lot of fans. And his death wasn't even romantic, it was tragically twisted.

While yes Lincoln's death was not tasteful, but it did serve the plot. Most likely, Octavia will kill Pike, because of Lincoln's death. The wedge between Octavia and Bellamy, furthers because of Lincoln's Death. And the Skaikru vs. Grounders conflict thickens, as a Skaikru kills a Trikru. All of these plot points are because of Lincoln's Death. Disagree all you want, but Lincoln's death progressed the show, and his death was the start of the end of the season.
