before then they were all backing him

even when it was absurd to do so given the evidence presented

The media loved him until they realized they would lose what little credibility they had if they didn't turn it around

I think we all need to step back and blame the person who's fault this really was..... Trumps!

ooooooh that awful BLUMPF

Trump probably personally beat up Jussie

That seems equally as likely as the story being spun here

It must be nice to live in a world where you can abdicate personal responsibility and blame all your problems on the orange man in the white house.

we put all our sins on this tanned old man and then we send him out of town while yelling at him

Wouldn't that make Trump the second coming of Christ?

He doesn't even have to be there, he most likely used his Space Force. @micamike45

no, just a scapegoat

Isn't the scapegoat a symbol of Christ?

At least that's how I understood it's usage in Leviticus.

That is correct

Jussie Smollett is Jesus Christ?

No, Trump is.

Jussie is Muhamad.

Actually no, that's not right... I need to write. Closing discord so I don't get distracted.

He's the gay Muhammad!

I needed to write too but I just kind of didn't

Praise Jussie from whom all blessings flow!

just to clear the air, a video of the police statement on the arrest of smollett. start at 6 minutes

Are blacks underrepresented in film?

I'd say over represented, by Will Smith alone

then you consider Rock makes like 30 movies a year and he's half black so that's like 15

TBH I don't watch movies enough to know. I've just been thinking about it after the minor political battle going on around Jordan Peele's remarks.

Peele's full of shit, acting like he's the first ever black director and no movies have black stars

what can you expect though, he's a hack

20 years ago: First ______ to be ______
10 years ago: First ______ _______ to be _______
Now: First _______ ________ _______ to be __________

the entries can be still the same they ignore anything older than 5 years

Black Panther is the first Marvel super hero movie...as long as you don't count the 3 Blade movies or the 4 MIB movies

I think people typically forget just what a small percentage of the American population that black people represent.

16% or so

lower than whites obviously but lower than Hispanic too but you don't hear half as much shit about Latin representation

they just create a lot of their own stuff

it's almost as much as the Asian population percentage of Australia which is between 11-16%

13%

50% of the crime and like 25% of the actors

Didn't someone do an analysis of awards and determine that, per population distribution, Black actors were overrepresented?
