nah i think coppola included that because she didnt want the audience to immediately despise the white main characters. see: the confederate protag in hell on wheels and (i think) josie wales.

Been playing Far Cry 2 this weekend and I think my character has reached his Moral Event Horizon™. After doing hours of wetwork for both factions, I've been betrayed by one side (the UFLL) and left for dead. However, after assassinating one of the UFLL's leaders, I've been tasked with restarting the civil war by…

Nobody forced Elvis to appropriate Black music

But historically one group has had the advantages over all the others and while race is a social construct its still an encompassing construct

And honestly thats really the problem here. A majority can do whatever it wants with a minority's culture and because of that there's a imbalance of power.

"As a species, as individuals we borrow and take inspiration from each other…. and the trade of ideas & culture go both *ALL* ways."

yeah basically

Thats not what they're saying. They're critiquing a double standard that exists. Black women who wear certain hairstyles can face negative consequences while White women who wear the same hairstyles are seen as "cool" or transgressive in an "edgy" way.

WW1 was not gray as fuck. Look at any modern day pics from warzones and they're pretty colorful! The same should be said of WW1 because it took place in real life and real life is colorful!

Hitman and Far Cry 2 for me.

Mafia 3 is an extremely flawed game with a great story. It's got a great opening but it soon devolves into lots of clear-the-outpost gameplay a la the recent Far Cry games. You'll have go through a set of those missions for every region in the game (there are 7 regions, excluding the Bayou, in total) in order to get…

dishonored 2 (yet again!), yakuza 0 and some GTA V

from what i've found you're on the right track

That part where Addison takes offense to Reggie asking him to not say the N-word spoke volumes about how we, as a country, have always talked about racism. Sometimes, when racism is expressed, there doesn't need to be malice or hatred behind it. Sometimes, it's just plain ignorance or stubbornness. However, throughout…

Why not?

That and the part with the Hispanic gardeners was racist as hell and easily the worst part of the show.

Oh no they understand its just that Lionel constantly flouts the rules. He disobeys his editor, writes a feature about someone he's friends with and even informs Sam about the scoop so that she'll be able to control the narrative. People regularly call him out on his behavior though.

One general observation about DWP: Despite its title, the show isn't about lecturing White people. Its really about activism and the best way to go about it.

Lowkey kinda annoyed how Rashid is basically treated as a stand-in for Africa even though he's just from Kenya. It'd be cool if the show had acknowledged that more.
