Yes. And we still need explicit stories of color - otherwise white default biases in casting, writing, and direction would still play their part. We don't live in the world you seem to think we do. Pretending we do only helps white people.
And that feeling lacks a necessary, vital context. We are not yet equal.
Nothing should be colorblind, but everything should be conscious of what diversity means and what whiteness has imposed upon us all.
So no on The Mikado - it’s hard enough for Asians to get work as it is.
Tell me again how a false idol for this mob will address my needs?
Thank you and well said. There’s still a lot of time in the primaries, but I fear that no current candidate has the focus or the commitment to addressing minority issues. If Bernie had half the passion for social justice that he did for economic justice? Well, he’d be half of Elizabeth Warren, who I’d carry across the…
In which a point proves itself. Asking for cited examples of lived experiences is exactly the kind of nonsense you get from Republicans. And while I didn’t call you out yet? Yes - you’re a bit racist. Not a white-hooded monster, but ignorant and unempathetic to the specific needs and concerns of black voices. I’ve run…
I’ve lived it, shitheel. And the next time you get the non-thought to ask people of color “when were you REALLY affected?” Slap yourself. Ugh.
I’m not voting for Bernie because the constituency and future he represents concerns me a lot more than Hillary’s self-service. The PNW white progressive gang is disgusting and…
It’s not “anonymous internet commenters”. It’s a vocal, active base of his supporters. It’s the Ron Paul lovefest all over again and it’s petty, cruel, and largely targeted at racial minorities. Bernie could take a stance on the behavior of his supporters, but lacks either the courage or the turning radius. It did…
You, frankly. I was in vigorous support of Bernie until I saw the kinds of people who speak for him and his refusal to rein in their harassment. They’re condescending, cruel, and doubly so to minorities. So? Screw you, buddy. I’d rather have an honest villain than you.
Gods live in chains, friend. We’re the ones holding the reins.
Ignoring the ignorance of people in power... the fuck you say?
Which is irrelevant to almost all of the people who actually worked on the project. Do you think some random coder gets points on profits?
You have an almost pathological need to oversimplify, don’t you? We need comprehension, not disdain. Faith can be separated from bigotry. Culture can transcend its brutal roots (if there’s any hope for white people, anyway...) We can reinvent the souls of our peoples - and we don’t have to look like fedora-mounted…
It’s all good. Being in the middle of believers and non-believers is... mystifying. It took video and tabletop games to give me my view: “...You mean you’re just picking it for the bonus? And because it’s nearby?” sums up people, government, etc. “Better” is hard word.
And you’re summarizing from a pulpit without any grounds, authority, or arguments to do so. This isn’t grade-school debate. Sit down, please.
And the book of Leviticus was written as a guide to Levites, thousands of years ago... religious officials, not common people. It was Paul and the societies that loved him... as well Orthodox Jews... who decided to wield religion as a weapon. Conservative politicians, being conservative, ache for any form of imaginary…
That’s because one is a political state, one is an economic system, and the third is a cultural artifact. These are three distinctly different things that all operate together to give us the modern nation. Got it?
And religion is the least of these - a corrupt, dictatorial plutocracy will have more impact on local…
The two aren’t intertwined - they’re the same damned thing. The Christianity of, say, the Eurozone... is a completely different animal of Southern US non-denominational money ministries... and utterly alien to Seventh Day Adventism, etc. Religion is culture and culture? Religion.
The problem becomes when people give…
