I'm naive?
I'm not the one who thinks we can meme and troll our way out of a globalist takeover.
We are in a war. The main fight in this war is currently for the hearts and minds of the normies. They need to be led to understand what is happening and persuaded to stop it.
But you lot can't stop circle jerking to your fantasies of an all-white paradise for long enough to understand that 94% of Americans approve of interracial marriage. Your dumb racist shitposting isn't going to persuade them of anything other than you might be the as bad as the media says.
And if you use the "they say we do it anyway, so we might as well do it" argument, you might be actually emotionally retarded at the level of a toddler.
So keep it up. Keep doin' it for the lulz for your tiny in group. Maybe you'll be lucky enough to share a pod with another Kekistani and you can reminisce about Pepes while eating your bugs.
You've opened by assuming my intents. Already a bad start to be wildly off by that far. Especially as you keep doing it all the way through. I brought no race or memes up, I only called your foundational statement ignorant.
This may be hard for you to understand, considering you went off on a wild tangent with no provocation, but people can disagree with your ideas without being the unhinged racist strawman you constructed.
Yes, and the other side has proven time and time again it can just make up stories wholesale to sell their products and do it quite successfully. It doesn't matter what we provide, if they are lacking in the necessary reality than a completely fabrication is more than enough for their purposes. Even when its found to be a fabrication, its simply buried and baited away from to sell the new one. Their "hearts and minds" are fickle and easily manipulated. Especially to an enemy who has not only mastered manipulating them without care for the damage or basic ethics/morals, but has control of all the most powerful weapons.
You are absolutely correct in this and I am embarrassed that I did something that I normally hate seeing other people do.
My strawman was a conglomeration of attitudes I have witnessed here and among other far right conversations, with no one specific person in mind, and it was wrong to assume it applied to you.
Regardless of the near omnipotence of the media, I stand behind the idea that doing the bad thing because you are being accused of doing the bad thing is not helpful to your cause, whatever it may be.
This implies its only done because they are accused of it. Which is simplifying the motives down considerably and I think loses sight of a lot.
In this case specifically, someone could prefer the white version for entirely non-racist reasons. Stickler for adaptational accuracy, the less weird looking of the actress' eyes, the improved color aesthetic from the more clashing of white/red vs blue instead of brown/brown on blue. None of those are anti-black or from a place of hate really, but can draw people to this option regardless. The color one is my personal beef, because christ its so washed out and plain looking.
There is also the simple reversal of "you race swapped it in the first place, doing it back is only fair." Which is what I wager this instance is more than any racism itself.
I'm not a man for optics, simply because I've been in this "culture war" for nearing three decades now and seen more ground lost to trying to keep up the PR facade than actually doing anything else.
And don't worry about the misstep, its easy to do when you get engaged in a mass argument.
Let's not pretend anybody is watching Disney films for source fidelity. They gave Hunchback of Notre Dame a happy ending FFS.
Yes, it's just a troll, which is funny in itself. I just object to it because:
Instead, parachute behind enemy lines. Use the same tech on famous black heroes and historical figures to really drive home the absurdity of race swapping. Put John Wayne's face on Shaka Zulu. Replace Shaft with Clint Eastwood. Take the whipping scene from Roots and turn Kunta Kinte into Ryan Reynolds.
The Left will still scream, but satire will be so obvious that there will be no way to take it seriously.
Anyway, fuck Disney.
Let's be serious here. Nothing discussed here will make a big difference in the culture war. Nobody here is winning the minds of normies. This is an echo chamber like every other online community. If you want to make a difference, you need to engage with people IRL.
The enemy doesn't care what we do, they'll target anyone who doesn't actively support their cause. The AI modification of a movie is interesting and funny, but won't make any difference either way. The enemy will accuse their opposition of being racists no matter what they do.
