Bernie polls with Asian Americans than HRC, but only white and black people exist in America, amirite? (Also, the two rallies I’ve watched him (through livestream) speak at were in Montgomery and Minnesota; they were very diverse and both had Black women speakers in them, but let’s pretend they don’t exist, amirite?)

...even pre-2013?

White gays supporting Hillary.

Hidden?!

I think the reason is just that in many ways, the very concept of “whiteness” is designed as a default.

it’s very telling that they decided to add “dogs” to the list of things that aren’t automatically included in a script.

Oh, come on. I hope this is sarcasm. If so, that’s a very good impression of an ignorant troll. If not...

Exactly my reaction. You don’t have to write roles specifically for black people in order to cast black people in them (or any other minorities). They are utterly oblivious to their white straight men are the default and any other combination needs to be specifically written.

Yeah...I am a white person who cares about diversity, and when I sit down to write a script or novel, I DO purposefully think about creating rich female and minority characters.

It’s like how actors of color are constantly turned down for generic roles because their race makes them “complex” or “different” or “less relatable” or “OTHER.”

The Coen Bros. usually make movies about the strange mundane though. What is more mundane than white people.

I know right? I wish they wouldn't pigeon hole characters so much! Same for male/female etc. People are people! I bet they are missing out on tons of talent.

No, no, no. You just don't understand how stories are written!!!!

Also, it’s amazing how often people of color actually do have the same issues as white people.

Um, they sometimes cast women, so there’s your diversity.

I’m just going to start referring to movies with only white people in them as “white movies”.

... Hannibal and her hispanic roommate Jaime are probably the two other characters that get the most screentime aside from those two, who created and star in their own show.

As a white person, I dont want any of those people tackling white people issues. Whatever those may be...

Ooooookay guys.
