So pathetic.
They should feel embarrassed every single time they say "white people have no culture!" and then blackwash a role just so they can feel included.
What's even more depressing is that there will actually be people who believe it's historically accurate because they're just that stupid. lol
It reminds me of the time after Black Panther was released when travel agencies began receiving a ton of phone calls of folks asking if they could book a trip to Wakanda.

HAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAAA! WAKANDA! I think that shining beacon of democracy, technological advancement, cutting edge science, and overall amazing egalitarian utopia actually exists. It’s called LIBERIA. Yeah, remember that? “We’re going to found a country in Africa run by the “natives” and show evil whitey how it’s done!

I think it’s finally time that more folks in the US take a one way cruise back to the amazing continent of Africa. So amazing that very little has changed from the 1700s when their ancestors were sold off by their own kinsmen for beads instead of being hacked to pieces by other Africans ala Hotel Rawanda.

Ah yes, lovely Liberia and Africa. The real life Wakanda. If you’re a jogger, morbidly obese welfare queen with so many chirrens you don’t know which one is from what father, or if you like the simpler things in life like molesting children, savagely beating pregnant women and overdosing on Fentanyl while passing counterfeit bills, Wakanda…I mean Liberia and the entire continent of Africa might be the social justice utopia you’ve been searching for all your life. Make plans to permanently relocate now before all the good properties are scooped up by your fellow joggers.

I don't know why people upvote a retard who thought the 19th century colonization meant "rule by the natives" somehow.

“We’re going to found a country in Africa run by the “natives”

No, the goal of the American Colonization Society was for the Black Americans to rule over the natives. Very explicitly so.

I guess someone really badly misled you about how this colonization thing worked.

I find it incredibly astounding that minorities (especially those who live in Europe) can say “white people have no culture whilst simultaneously” standing within 500km of the Paris, Rome, etc. The level of ignorance is truly amazing.

I saw a video on youtube where someone bullshitted his way through a presentation on a country using Wakanda. The class was stifling giggles while the teacher was slightly confused, but hey- who knows all the countries in Africa anyway.

At this point I don't think they need excuses anymore. If you point this out they'll either deny it or say it's a good thing.

The only consistent thing is their hypocrisy.

And I despise how critics praise a movie or show by diversity. Diversity is neutral. But they don’t care that this hyper obsession with diversity has killed entertainment

It makes perfect sense.

Both corporations and progressive ideologues benefit from this arrangement, and everyone else suffers.

But since both parties are completely psychotic or downright evil, they are at best indifferent to suffering, or at worst are lowkey enjoying at it.

I was about to get Netflix for free (some promotion for like 3 months) when the news of the Witcher casting dropped. So I never had Netflix.

And yet they HOWL whenever the prospect of a white Cleopatra is raised.

Even though she was almost certainly was, because she was fucking Greek.

I vaguely remember Cleopatra depictions being white up until the late 90s. I wonder if she was the first.

Doesn't even matter if you know the genetics of native Egyptians. Anything north of the Sahara was white Mediterranean.

Almost all of Egypt is Sahara. Including Nubian land (and they are black) but really almost all.

I was in Egypt about 20 years ago and I was talking to a tour guide at one of the museums.

There are a very wide range of physical appearances in Egypt, from easily passing as European to more sub-Saharan African, and everything in between. This dude was pretty dark, curly haired, etc. Pretty much everyone I talked to, anywhere, loved Americans (because we tip well and have money, hah). Multiple times people yelled "Heigh-ho Silver, American!" because apparently that's a popular TV show?

Anyway, this museum dude and I were talking. He mentioned his brother had gone to school in Georgia. I asked him how he liked America. This dude, just casual as fuck, says "Oh, he said it was pretty good, but there were too many blacks."

Despite the casual racism, it kind of warmed my heart. People everywhere, of all classes, races, and colors, are all bigoted against each other. For some reason it was vaguelly reassuring.

If not the first, definitely one of them, and one of the most advanced in terms of its effect on people's perception of world history.

At some point it was decided that the emotional cravings of Black Americans were more important than all historical evidence.

The funniest thing is that Cleopatra was a fucking failure. A degenerate layabout sitting a in palace quite literally sucking Roman cock to live, while her country, an utter shadow of its former self, falls apart around her. 3,300 years of Pharaonic tradition ends with her embarassing reign.

It would honestly look better for Blacks if the whole world though she was a Blonde-Haired, Blue-Eyed nordic, never mind the actual reality of some Greek bitch with a massive hook nose.

This stuff is just baffling to me. Baffling, funny and sad all at the same time. And we know they'd say "dude why do you care so much lol, it's just a show, what're you? racist?" but if you so much as make a dark-skinned fictional character 10% lighter they begin frothing at the mouth.
