You suggested it about commenters, I'm replying with the fact that she is ignoring the existence of black people in key creative roles. At least two black people don't exist to the author, I presume because she's more interested in making a political point, but I could be wrong on that.

So we've finally arrived at an agreement! Doesn't change the fact you've been nothing but an ass. You clearly haven't learned that berating people is probably not the best way to change their minds or inform them about something. Therefore I'm pretty confident in my initial opinion — you're a dumbass and should…

Biology and capitalism have something to say about that. People get unequal shares of physical capacity or intelligence at birth and that's just how it works. Complaining doesn't help.

Alright, but the author who clearly 1) Has an opinion; 2) Doesn't do research; 3) Gets paid to do things like research, doesn't seem to think black people are people. Either that or she's shitty at her job.

"Not only did Amazon have the foresight to have black people in key creative roles for a story about the lingering effects of slavery in America"

Well stated — I'd only suggest that the L'Angelles thing has only just been introduced and (I suspect) will become a storyline as the show progresses, so we may well look back on things with 20-20 hindsight…

Interesting interpretation…if you're a Preacher fan you'll understand that Cassidy isn't a fan of immortality either. I don't think I'd complain if some people lived forever, though…like it'd be pretty great if Carrie Fisher were still around.

Just did, and it felt GREAT. Didn't help me understand your point though…

I can't pretend to be a theatre guy (there's very little in the place I live, sadly), so thank you for providing context regarding the show itself…I'm clearly uninformed.

Thank you for your reasoned response.

I have a crazy idea. How about you try clarifying your point rather than calling me stupid. It might just work.

Can't Elon Musk come up with a cure for dying already? Fuck, this is a tough one. Miss you already, Sam.

I understood your point. Reading it again hasn't made me any smarter. Stupid.

Please expound on the point I missed.

Didn't realize this was a scholarly article, but here's a quick example because you didn't bother with Google: https://www.forbes.com/site…

I suppose you're justified making judgments if I were to stuff myself with pie while not sharing…I'm working under the assumption that I would share said pie because there's lots of pie and can't we all have a slice?

Honorable mention to Diana Rigg

That doesn't make any sense in context. I'm happy to share pie, but fuck you if you're judging me on how I do it.

Interesting that everyone seems to have forgotten that Mandy Patinkin is a legendary asshole

This is profoundly fucked up logic. Last point first — Mandy Patinkin isn't a hack. If you want to argue on meritocracy, you've chosen the wrong actor to fall on your sword upon. Secondly, it's bullshit SJW thinking to assume that it's inherently bad for a white guy to play a role that a non-white guy played. The…
