Should the Academy Awards be an EEO Event?

All I know is that it is fun to watch the left fight amongst themselves.

 

Of course, and the feeling is mutual.

Proverbs 27:17 (KJV) Iron sharpeneth iron....

 

I'm boycotting the Oscars.

Not really. I never watch them in the first place. Buncha self-serving millionaires giving each other awards for how well they serve up fiction to the paying public....

 

You know it's just plumb stupid how the folks who have always been in charge of everything just can't figure out why everyone else would have a problem with the almost 400 years of preferential treatment. Yet they get all up in arms that anyone who doesn't look like them might think their work is worthy of being recognized.

So it's no surprise that the white people who run the movie houses and who green-light movies and tv shows, and who are the same ones who decide the script writers, the producers, the directors, the scorers, etc, are overwhelmingly old white men who in turn, nominate the movies and people in the movies they green lighted.

And the old one from California thinks this is just sour grapes.

It's real easy when all but one President, just about every Senator in history, just about every Fortune 500 executive, all of the billionaires, and people with any type of power in politics and the media look like the majority of folks in this country have for 400 years.

This inability to recognize or empathize with any POV except that of old, white people to the point of anger is TRULY one of the primary things that has divided the country by skin color.

 

Honestly, I couldn't, and do not, care less about the Academy Awards. It's a fool's game to think that they matter and I've usually never seen the movies anyways. If the Academy is overly white than that's a problem for them to work out. Hollywood, for all its liberal zeal, is ironically racist in many ways. Of course, scandalous white women have a tendency to sell lots and lots of movie tickets than other nationalities and that's a well know economic fact.

I do think that RD has a good point in posting the OP. Should provide good food for discussion.

 

I do as well.

 

Are you talking about Bernie and Hillary when you speak of really old white people?

 

If he is on your Ignore List, why do you... Oh, never mind.

 

Let's see--there are the rich white liberal Democrat movie stars versus the Black Lives Matter. It's Democrat vs. Democrat. Yeah, let's you and him fight.
