"The fear, one prominent director said in an email, is “the audience stops trusting us. They begin to see us as a community twisting ourselves into a pretzel to make every movie as woke as possible, every relationship mixed racially, every character sexually fluid, and they decide that we are telling stories set in a fantasyland instead of a world they know and live in. If that happens, and they decide to throw themselves instead into video games 24/7, we will lose them.”
On one hand, this has already happened to many people, and even normies are getting confused now.
On the other hand, video games are suffering from the same thing, so there isn't much direct competition. Also, most gen X and boomers won't ever consider foreign media to be real alternatives.
Exactly. They're ruining games too so we won't have anywhere to escape. Sometimes we do want fantasyland, we just have different fantasies than the identity politics perverts who run Hollywood.
I've been watching playthroughs for The Witcher 3 because it doesn't have nigger elves or race-swapped characters. Serious, I expect Netflix's next season to feature a hanging tree full of elves who've had their gold teeth removed for looking at a human woman at this point.
That's really delusional. There was never a stereotype - especially not in the 80's - of black men being awkward around the women. Probably the opposite idea was pushed. If anything his character was a groundbreaking example of "equality" by not making Geordi a hip young wisecracking engineer with Charisma 100 who beds all the white women and always has something clever to say.
Now that I think about it, I believe his original casting sheet said he had "street smarts" and they wanted Wesley Snipes for the role. Dodged a bullet there.
he accused the TNG writers of racism for making his character awkward towards women.
Dude is literally just salty that Worf and Riker got all the pussy, despite that being... totally believable because they are the two strongest men on the ship.
Worf's existence BTFO's everything Burton said. Dude is just a petty little bitch mad about who he had to pretend to be 30 fucking years ago.
and any time they fuck up, it's not their fault... it's just everyone else being racist/sexist. it's fucking pathetic. this is the lens through which they see the world.
article says it's gotten so bad that white people can't do their job anymore because if they even make a basic normal request in the scope of the job from someone who isn't white, complaints alleging racism are filed.
One thing is that you're filling important roles with talentless hacks.
But they're not just obstacles to be worked around.
No, they're actively sabotaging you. And they're succeeding no matter if they're technically subordinates to the production.
Becasue you're also providing them with a script that allows them to bully others to get their way. The ideology has them at the top of a hierarchy based on their "identities", and lays out in detail what to say in the climate the ideology has created to make the shots.
AND you're giving them the motivation to use this power. The ideology is a huge larp where they're good and oppressed and anyone with competence (i.e. anyone who is making arguments not based on the ideology) is evil and secretly plotting to hurt them.
AND you're fueling their anger and hatred through constant misery-port journalism and filling them with a lust for rightous vengence to the point where they start to take pleasure in humiliating those they see as their enemies.
AND you're scaring the incompetent others (the allies) into cheering on whatever the angry, incompetent, hateful mob is pushing for.
Who gives a shit. Let the industry die. Independent studios foreign markets are the only ones producing things worth watching these days, just ask Netflix.
“A really toxic thing that does happen is that agents will tell their clients, especially white clients, when they don’t get a job, ‘Oh yeah, it’s because they had to hire a minority writer.’”
Stentz added: “Even if it’s true, it’s not a helpful thing to say.”
I'm sorry, WHAT?
Yeah, they're being racially discriminated against, but like, it'd be fine if they didn't know, right? Fucking fiend.
“For fucks sake, please stop blaming ‘diversity hires’ for why your client isn’t getting a job. It’s either that you’re not working hard enough or that they’re not good enough. Be honest with them. You are harming us.”
'Be honest with them' rofl. Nice gaslighting.
Still, you can smell the fear. They know what they're doing and they know it will come crashing down if there's enough of a noise.
We emailed Franklin Leonard, the founder of the Black List—the point of which is to elevate voices that might otherwise not get elevated—to talk about the industry’s marked shift: What was driving it? And where did it go next? He declined to comment.

Every so often I see a new article about Gen-Z'ers who are addicted to 90's media, and trying to get to the bottom of why.
Look at the garbage produced now and you shouldn't even have to ask why. It ought to be self evident.
That happened about 20 years ago for me.
Too late, motherfucker.

When you select for skin color instead of merit, you get talentless hacks who are there because they want their gibs.

You mean Lt. Reginald Broccoli?

Yeah I liked him in tng and growing up with him hosting reading rainbow….. sucks to see people you thought were normal are delusional

so of course everything fucking sucks.

Of course he did.
Fear not, video games are pozzed just as much.
Their propaganda is in a blatant war with objective truth.
But it can't succeed unless it also applies a certain amount of intimidation of dissenters and noticers.
This exposes the propaganda as not being mere "entertainment", but brainwashing.
No shit.
Ironically it makes the "problem" worse as all the villains can only be White Men, who are always the most interesting characters in good stories.
