The Year Zero attitude is maybe the most infuriating thing about the feminists and race hustlers. These fucks are so desperate to be seen as civil rights trailblazers that they systemically ignore all previous minority representation. It’s gaslighting, and not the fraudulent leftist version. Nothing they say makes any sense unless you pretend that people like billy dee Williams and Samuel Jackson haven’t already broken these “barriers”.
That’s really what most of leftism comes down to: pretending not to know things. Sundance over at TCT says this all the time. These people have adopted a pantomime of ignorance that is designed to lure everyone into a false belief that leftists are incompetent. They aren’t incompetent. They are deceitful and malicious. They know that they are lying, and they don’t care. All that matters is the revolution.
I felt weird with them acting like she was the first black person in the series when Lando was a recurring and beloved character. His position was about as high as it goes too. They even brought him back for Mando. He’s about as black as it gets.
I think it's less than that: the useful idiots just want attention- to stand out and get noticed. Like you said, they want to be trail blazers, but there's nothing left to discover or fight for. Bereft of anything substantive to fight for, they can only ignore what's gone before and try ever more specific sub-categories of "first X to do Y".
