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?

Yes

#oscarssoblack

Same with LGBT rep in media

Small % of the population, visible often in film

LGBT is absurdly overrepresented.

Who cares?

They do

That's what makes it funny

I don’t

I don’t care. It’s funny

I think part of the problem is a lot of the white liberals complaining about this stuff live in cities where the population is more like 40% black and never venture into the suburbs or rural areas where it drops to like 0.5%

Try Netflix “Norseman” series. Funny as fick

Frikkin liberals identity politics to the max

Not my liberals, gickem

Call em what they are and take liberalism back my dude

I don’t need to take it back, I have it. Now I have to side with loonies because worse loonies?
Ffs.... can I have the Spanish civil war back so I can support imperialism over populism?
If I want to kill all of them, what should I (as an example idiot) do???

Hm?

I’m only rabidly any one thing or the other when the balance goes out.
I’m a big fan of balancing acts. Jerry, not gaynor nor corum

If you don’t know the reference, correct that, then argue

That's a bit of a non sequitur m8

No. It’s reactionary. I dont mind that
