Leonard Bernstein's Family Defends 'Maestro' Star Bradley Cooper Amid 'Jewface' Backlash
The family members of Leonard Bernstein have come out in defense of actor Bradley Cooper amid accusations of "jewface" for his portrayal of the historic conductor in the upcoming film "Maestro."
So why are they allowed to play white people, then?
Why is every white role replacable by a black actor on netflix?
Because they have zero respect for any white identity or ethnicity. They want to create an imagined reality in which white people don’t exist at all so as to limit pushback against measures introduced in reality that might threaten their actual existence.
The inversion of that is why they defend their own identity so vehemently.
Can we just bulldoze Hollywood into the ocean at this point?
Lol you got downvoted even though the comment wasn't even antisemitic
Ah, Jewface. A classic Dick Tracy gangster.
No? So, jewface. A schoolyard insult.
Still wrong? Uh, jewface. Another name for the "happy merchant" meme?
Wait, so "jewface" is when a non Jewish actor plays a Jewish man in media and uses makeup and prosthetics to better look like the Jewish man in question and the surviving family of that Jewish man is cool with it and even supports it?
Really?
C’mon now, we're all fellow whites aren't we?
"Are jews white?" is the only thing that should be asked. If yes then the dude is permitted to play one according to modern sensibilities. If no then he's not. Now if religion is going to get the skin color treatment that could be a large shake-up.
If Twitter were not having a spazz-out then I would post a nitter link for those embedded tweets.
80% or so of Jews don't consider themselves white.
Ohhh man, how about we talk about what religion/ ethnicity the blackface actors were!
More importantly, Why isn't the main role played a female/trans/POC actor?
