Toronto International Film Festival plays identity politics Bingo: Media accreditation will now be segregated by race, sexuality
The Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) is searching for minorities, and minorities only for a special, expenses-paid opportunity to cover the festival!
I mean... LGBTQ+ and racial film festivals have been things for decades. I don't see what the problem is, it's literally a category for certain communities for specific types of potentially controversial but still meaningful art.
You'll notice it's not called the Toronto Black Film Festival or Toronto LGBTQUIA2+-XYZLMNOP Film Festival. Even then why would you segregate the people reporting on it??
And are you sure this information is correct? You did get this article from an openly anti-LGBTQ+, heavily-biased, and non-factual website. You could be falling for political propaganda without realizing it.
You don't even know the article is about press coverage and about not having gay minority films. You're dumb and if you're going to "educate" people at least make a defense of the article and not create a strawman about gay movies.
I've read the article, and it's from a notoriously biased website that was literally purchased by a conservative company and turned from a Christian equivalent of the Onion to an anti-SJW content farm. It's not a reliable source of information.
