why was diversity way cooler in the 90's?
>>220666184It was optional and not mandated
>>220666184Black people peaked in coolness in the 1970s and were still cool by the 90s. 2000s bling era really did a number on them now every post 2009 black person is really faggy.
>>220666184Watch BOUNCE tv
>>220666184We still believed browns could act civilized if given the chance
>>220666184Because it wasn't forced. People were hired for their talents and not to tick a box.
Almost as if it isn't the diversity being the problem but social media era people just being insufferable in general.
>>220666345so you think its the people in social media and not the people directing the movies and their news puppets?
>why top of slippery slope better than bottom?
I've got a simple, existential oneWhy does Wesley Snipes literally trooned the fuck out in 1995 still look more badass than John Boyega, Donald Glover or Michael B. Jordan trying their hardest today?
The year is 1999The most famous golfer in the world is blackThe most famous rapper in the world is whiteThe world is at peace
>>220666184Blacks were doing much better in the 1950s than now. Welfare has destroyed them and now it's destroying whites too.
>>220666184it took a little while to figure out they really had been judged by the content of their character all along
>>220666609...dayum
>>220666184Because today, it's treated as a zero sum game. They elevate one side by disparaging the other. Diversity back then was about treating everyone on the same level and it also didn't pretend like black people didn't have their own problems
>>220666184You weren't told by online provocateurs to get angry about it yet
>>220666679then there's bad faith retards like this
>>220666184It didn't feel forced and they didn't bring up the racial differences every single moment (and if they did, it was for comedic purposes, not to bitch like now). Movies like Rush Hour were absolute fucking peak in race relations.
>>220666609https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7xiK-snyJk
>>220666419Most of them are in social media or at least affected by it.
Ironically, Bruce and Damon fucking loathed each other during filming.
>>220666221>It was optionalLOLMAORacists really perform incredible mental gymnastics
>>220666637>Black people were better off as second class citizens where you would get beaten up or lynched for sitting in a bus
>>220666184Because they put cool minority actors on screen not fat ugly tranny minorities.
>>220666948sauce
>Danny Glover hates white people>Mel Gibson hates black people>both of them hate jews>they've remained friends irl for 40 yearsHow the fuck did they do it?
>>220666998Also the movies were actually good
>>220666978Yeah. They were financially better off, had better family relationships, and I didn't have to put up with them as much.
>>220666978it was no different from today with blacks comitting most the violence
>>220666953(You) tranny
>>220667023boy Danny glover didnt age well
>>220667090kek yeah what a shitty looking 80 year old
>>220667023
>>220667045>Also the movies were actually goodi think is part of the success, the stories werent absolute shit like today, or atleast the stories that bubbled up from all the shit ones. today we get inundated with shit movies and shows that would be c tier before
>>220666978Things that never happened for 500, Alex.
>>220667106you mean to tell me that when they did leathal weapon, Danny was 20 years older than Mel?
>>220666978>second class citizensthats white supremasits for low middle income for anyone wondering
>>220667175Sup, Saar
>>220666338The token black character thing felt pretty forced. Even though they were often the best character in the cast
>/tv/tards once again buying into blind nostalgia because they saw a buddy cop movie and think it is perfect reflection of how the world was likeRodney King happened during this same time period, read a goddamn a history book or Wikipedia article once in your life.
>>220667341>america was never greatkys commie faggot
>>220666345No diversity is the problem. It just crept behind the camera. That's the real answer. The trained monkeys of the 80/90ss were reading talented writer's/producers work.
yeah there were a lot of cool diverse bands too https://youtu.be/-MnELifX3sQ (fatboy slim on bass guitar). https://youtu.be/RufL27qw6IU
When I was a kid, they taught us in school that there's no such thing as race, that everyone's the sameThey don't do that anymore, now they teach kids that nothing matters more than raceYou'd think the /pol/ types would approve of thatThey can't even make a show where a white and a black are just friends with each other anymore lol
>>220666184Because black characters were cool and portrayed as human beings with flaws and interesting characteristics as opposed to being umblemished oppression-wearing fashionable pets for their dogmatic white guilt-ridden virtue signalling liberal masters
>>220666184You weren't racist yet
>>220667513>You'd think the /pol/ types would approve of thati do, it's really funny
>>220667513>You'd think the /pol/ types would approve of thatboth sides approve of that, one side is race realism, and the other side is true racism
black + white was cool. now the country is full of broccolis and it's just like what is even the purpose, of anything
>>220667387Holy projection, chuddie
>>220667780Even if the zoomers were never a thing society would still be fucked since there are plenty of older liberals. Only if you killed all the lefties society would return to peace.
>>220667780>the country is full of broccolisthe real people at fault here are the millenials not the zoomers. all tv and movie are made for millenial liberals, zoomers have skibidi
>>220667948zoomers are the ultimate wiggers, it used to be uncool to pretend to be black if you were white cause it meant you were a poser but now the distinction doesnt exist at all. they all talk in ebonics like its completely natural
IIRC Wayans character said anti-White statements in this.
>>2206679814chan also talks in ebonics, "based" was literally popularized by a negro. Is everyone here a wigger as well?
>>220666184from a non-murican POV based on movies and series blacks used to be effortlessly cool until the 90s and whites weren't that performative
>>220668009using one word that a rapper obscurely used that was never part of black vernacular is not the same and even you know youre trying to draw a false equivalency.
>>220666184Because it was: "Hey look, black people are cool!". So black people and non-racist whites could enjoy it. Now it's "Hey look, white people are lame!". So no white people can enjoy it, and black people with self-awareness notice it's patronizing. They are no longer "as cool as white people", they are now portrayed as superior, flawless, and morally elevated beings who exist mainly to humiliate or replace whites.
>>220667023>are we too old for this shit ?
>>220667948skibidi is first grader shit it's an alpha thing
>>220668036Maybe but a lot of modern 4chan discussions are filled with buzzwords that sound exactly like ebonics(even if they are used in an ironic way).
>>220668074also quite a bit of difference from shitposting here in text versus changing your speaking pattern in real life.
>>220666953>Racists really perform incredible mental gymnasticshttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Pov0MKuyJfg&ra=m
>>220666184Because they generally cast people who could act and who could look appealing in front of a camera, rather than just going "let's cast the ugliest sheboon/the zestiest buck we can find, who gives a shit if they can emote or not".
>>220668096I've never heard teenagers use "fr" or "no cap" irl though.
>>220668074>Maybe but a lot of modern 4chan discussions are filled with buzzwords that sound exactly like ebonicstell me you are a newfag without telling me you are a newfag
>>220668156name 5 old 4chan buzzword that sounded like ebonics.
>>220666978Yeah, now they get stabbed instead, and it's every day in most major cities instead of being an isolated one-off political stunt.
>>220668174iim not telling you that they sounded like ebonics, im telling you that what ever "ebonics" you hear has a story behind it, usually with older chans like 2chan, evern hear of ebin, or buga?
>>220667993But they probably wrote it in a funny way that fit the character and story, whereas now it'd be preachy and unsubtle.
>>220668156to a newfag oldfag words sound like ebonics, lol
>>220666184It was more natural and not obviously a tool of psychological warfare and stochastic terrorism
>>220666609How did The Matrix predict that 1999 would truly be the peak of our civilisation?
>>220666609>The year is 1999>the world's most famous black person is white>heehee
I hate jewgle
>>220666184This movie sucked
>>220668052>Now it's "Hey look, white people are lame!".It must be so wonderful to live in an alternative reality where you get to pretend you’re being oppressed by television every day if you’re white
>>220668237>I’m being terrorised by seeing black people on the idiot box!It’s so weird when white supremacist argument has gone from “whites are superior race” to “we whites are fragile and weak, why are you being so mean to us by simply showing up in modern mass entertainment!?”
>>220668373>terrorisedGood morning saar
>>220668305here you go brother, i got you
>>220668373the white supremacist thing is a narrative manufactured by three letter agencies and ngos, people would just rather not stare at blacks all day
>>220668325>
>>220666184Because they still had to cater to a majority white audience who had a realistic view of black people, so they had to provide a depiction of diversity that was somewhat grounded in reality. They hadn't moved on to 200 IQ scientist genius handicapped black trans woman superhero yet because they just couldn't. Everyone would have completely rejected it, it would have made no sense, be seen as a joke it is. It was a different world and they had to change that world first. You have to realise 90s diversity was a step in the slow march through the institutions. A film like The Last Boyscout was part of long a media psyop to change people's mind on diversity. They had to start with black buddy cop so they could get to black little mermaid.
>>220668392never point out their mistakes to them, they might learn that way. let them keep making the same mistakes so that they're easier to identify.
>>220668480>start with black buddy cop so they could get to black little mermaidthats a huge leap
>>220666304>Watch BOUNCE tvdid op ask for nog tv channel?
>>220668480My grandfather, who's a sailor, has actually seen black mermaids before the disney remake.
>>220668392Good morning racist
>>220668540
>>220668513Connect the dots, you can track it through the years. In the 70s you have Dirty Harry being racist to his partner yet still willing to work with him. Fast forward 20 years you have Jules and Vincent, they're partners in crime, the black guy is a cool tough badass and the white guy is an incompetent junky. Fast forward another 20 years and you have Black Panther and black Little Mermaid. The depiction changes, but the people in charge are the same, and their agenda remains the same. They have to deal with psychological resistance, with the current social climate, they have to boil the frog slowly.Watch An Empire of their Own, you'll see it's been going on since Hollywood's inception.
>>220666953Spoiler: You were the racist the entire time, tranny.
>>220668609>It’s a conspiracy!
>>220666184because racism was dead until 2008
>>220666184Black men can be extremely funny and entertaining. They didn't need to pander, however you can see woke creeping in during the 80's even in based films like Robocop.
>>220666345Social media is a huge problem. If you shut down Instagram, Reddit, 4chan, Twitter, etc. all of that shit tomorrow, in a month a lot of people would be normal again.
>>220666221the tv show Sabrina the Teenage Witch introduced a black main character due to a diversity mandate
>>220666953nice to hear that the 90's, 00's and 10's werent problematic and actually complainers are just retarded people who enjoy living in fantasy worlds (tranny's forte)
>Another psyop thread where online racists claim racism didn’t exist until [insert_date _here] to gaslight people into thinking casting was normal when mediocre to no talent white actors like Frank Stallone and Stephen Baldwin got cast in everything as leading men
>>220667138>Things that never happened/Pol/ faggots are now pretending that Jim Crow and lynchings never happened as well? Top kek.Also, the ESL MIGA samefagging ITT (complete with the "you lost, tranny"-type canned responses) is painfully obvious. Go back to your containment board, Jose.
>>220668988>online racists claim racism didn’t exist until [insert_date _here]Not once has this ever happened. Groid lovers making up fictitious scenarios in their heads happens on pretty much an hourly basis though
>>220668988>>220669005bold of you to call out someone for samefagging right after doing this level of crying back to back on cooldown
>>220666184Australians and probably most of the world sans Africa didn't have experience with niggers. So didn't know better.
>>220669088Why do you keep using the n word? It's racist.
>>220669028Nice try.
>>220666184People got along great in the '90s. But when the age of information came around the JQ and Banksters' doings were in full view so distractions were needed; racism, transism, thisism, thatism, etc etc. Now they have mostly snuck back behind the curtain and people have been made into non critical thinking dopamine loopers, truly zombie like morons that have even lost the most primal urge to breed. Humanity lives in the cold grey awful world it was promised nearly hundred years ago.
>>220669125It's the word that means them. They aren't black. Black has other connotations. A lot good. Niggers are niggers. It sounds bad because they are bad.
>>220669272Nah you are just racist. There are plenty of good black fellows.
>>220669283How can you be so obtuse, is it deliberate?
>>220669283No there aren't. There are those who attack women. That's it. Kill them all. Niggers are worthless.If some try and disarm others to that fact they are part of the attacking women operation and should be killed too.
>>220669350>There are those who attack women.Incel chuds pretending that they care about women when they spend 24/7 posting about how "used-up holes" should all be violently gang-raped, beheaded, and necro-skullfucked will never not be funny.
>>220666184Because the white people in the movie were also allowed to be cool and good alongside the black people.
>>220666184When people complain about "woke" they actually mean "preachy". There's a difference between putting a woman/minority in something and putting a woman/minority in something and going "We are making a statement!"
>>220669385>poster’s thinly disguised fetishForgive your single mother for fucking you up, you freak.
>>220669399Insightful post but I ask preachy about what? It's sort of the same as "states' rights to do what?"
>>220666978Even with all the Jim Crow stuff, they had a better standard of living and didn't die as young as often back then than they do now.
>>220666184>>220667604great movie
>>220669422
>>220669498Shoo now. Go back to jacking off to necrophilia porn or whatever the fuck you’re into and let the adults talk.
>>220669399>things in the 80s and 90s weren’t “preachy” because I was too stupid and young to notice or be triggered by messages like “don’t be racist” or “sexism is bad” Fixed
It wasn’t forced and it was light hearted.
>>220669632You do realize that we've all seen the posts that incel chuds make on this site every single day, right? You really aren't fooling anyone.
>>220669681Very convenient how you just happened to have this saved. Totally not from your goon folder, though
>>220666184Because you didn't get your panties in a wad over if.
>>22066618490s was peak liberal colourblindness. Black people weren't chosen to be in films because of affirmative action, or previous generations of oppression, or for representation, or in an attempt to fight and overthrow the white supremacist patriarchy that we live under. They were chosen because they fit the role and they were cool. Race didn't play a factor in the casting decision.
>>220667604This is also the same reason women have stopped being interesting in movies after the mid 90s. As soon as they weren't allowed to have flaws and make mistakes, they stopped being characters and became strawmen.
>>220666184It was actually fun. I remember being a really little kid in the 90s and most of the media wanted to go by our commonalities (and in that, that's also when gays wanted to be seen just as people too) rather than a hierarchy of privilege.Now you have weirdos trying to make minute details into whole other personalities in a race to hit rock bottom in the oppression hole, and then pretend they're making a huge statement about the world.
>>220668331it must?
>>220669704>have this savedHard to believe that retards actually think this is a real comeback.I don't keep anything saved on my computer permanently, but nice try.
Naw, you people just think this cuz you're no longer on top. It's the same as it ever was except niggas got equal footing now. Deal with it, white boy.
>>220669777And yet you seem to have saved yourself crashing out over this very same issue over a month ago. This in the same folder with the screencaps of your rape and necrophilia fetish posts?
>>220666184They acknowledged that they had differences at least, so it "felt" better even though from the very start the intent was to push forward homogenizing the entire gene pool.
>>220669819You're getting really desperate, anon. I know that the truth hurts, but you're just embarrassing yourself. Perhaps you should go back to >>>/pol/ or >>>/r9k/ with your fellow degenerate incel vermin.
>>220669867>doesn’t deny that he capped his own post from a month ago, thus rendering bullshit his claim that he doesn’t save anything on his computer>throws in another file from his goon folder for good measureI accept your concession. Thanks for playing.
>>220669879Yeah, I capped it to post here and then deleted it right afterwards, retard. Just like I do with all images.>I point out how chuds are depraved perverts.>"HAHA THAT'S FAKE YOU MADE THAT UP THAT'S JUST SHIT YOU GOON TO #YOULOSTTRANNY>I post screencaps of chuds saying shit exactly like that.>"HAHA YOU HAVE THAT SHIT SAVED I BET YOU GOON TO IT #MAKEISRAELGREATAGAINYou are not human beings, and I eagerly look forward to you pedophile vermin being slaughtered in the streets in the near future.
>>220669744You’re terminally online and spend your time eating up content that is on purpose designed for maximum engagement, that’s the problem. Be it (you)s or clickbait or whatever, you treat such things as real and majority of things happening when in truth you’re engaged with an ever more closed up and more niche social circle
>>220669936I'm unfortunately aware of that and have been taking strides in lessening my screen time outside of work. Getting more engaged with things I actually enjoy and more physical hobbies really does make a difference.It doesn't change the fact that there are people out there who do want to cause insane division but I have been trying to get more in touch with my own local community.
1 because the actors were just better (this isn't even necessarily a black only thing since most modern actors are just flat out bad compared to actors of the 20th century) & 2 usually because the "diversity" was written to make sense instead of being mindlessly shoved into it & then having the director/media seethe at the audience if they ask why they're blackwashing people.Lets compared a blockbuster from the 90's that has a black actor in a traditionally white only setting to Nolan's The Odyssey.Morgan Freeman's character of Azeem isn't just mindlessly dropped into the setting & calls you racist for noticing he's out of place, He's a Moor & originally imprisoned in Jerusalem along with our protagonist Robin Hood from England who vows to get back to his homeland.Azeem swears a life debt & befriends Robin traveling with him from the Middle East back to England, there people notice right away that he's not a native, at some points he has to wear full on disguises to cover himself so he's doesn't arise suspicion & some of Robin's Men even show distrust of the outsider for his religious beliefs but eventually come to respect him due to his actions & none of these originally distrustful people are painted as bad or evil simply for being cautious at first about a foreigner that follows a different religion.Azeem makes some comments about British weather being crap but he at no point complains about white people, the closest he gets is sarcastically commenting on how crazy people are acting in Robin's home county but at that point it's under the iron grip of the Sheriff & his men making people distrustful of outsiders.Azeem is also an original character & not just taking existing white characters & blackwashing them almost all the other characters from the original fable are there/portrayed with a setting accurate actor.Compare that to Nolan's Odyssey which just mindlessly shoves asians/brown people/troons into it all over and blackwashes half the characters.
>>220666503older actors generally are just more charismaticthat's the way it isyou could ask the same with any young white actors
>>220667291Roger Murtaugh > Martin Riggsand he wasn't a toke, he was co protag
>>220666184Better writing, better ideas for characters and better casting that focused on talent. Quality, not quantity. That's all there is to it.
>>220668305>>220668406The NIGGERS one isn't "the original", they recorded two takes, and the NIGGER one is post-production. Also you can just google "I hate niggers"
>>220667341
>>220666637>the introduction of crack cocaine in black neighborhoods has destroyed themFixed. The reason is that they had communist sympathies, so they were culled and made into retarded animals.
>>220668136What about "bro"
>>220666184Because it wasn't whiny and preachy. There wasn't an air of entitlement about it.
>>220668536Which I guess wasn't the danish Disney one, who is white with red hair
>>220669644>LEFTIST ETERNAL PRESENT>things that are reasonable at level 1 are still totally reasonable at level 23
>>220669798you are just put there b self flagellating white top people to make a political statement against other white people.
>>220670093This, very well said
>>220671187>Because it wasn't whiny and preachy. You should go rewatch Lethal Weapon 2 if you genuinely believe this.The entire plot revolves around South African diplomats, who are cartoonishly racist against black people, doing diamond smuggling in order to circumvent sanctions against SA. There’s even an entire scene dedicated to Murtaugh going to their embassy, which is surrounded by a mob of anti-apartheid protesters, just so that Murtaugh can troll the racists inside by saying he wants to emigrate to SA. And that whole scene ends with him giving a blatantly in your face speech where he’s talking about joining his brothers in the cause against the racist, fascist tyrannical government before the racists SA people grab him throw him out of the building, only for Murtaugh to be received by a cheering anti-apartheid protesters.If that isn’t “whine and preachy” by this shithole board then nothing is.
In the 90s you had cool people writing whites and blacksIn current-day we have retards sucking black dick and shitting on whites every opportunity they can and it feels forced to any kind of sane individual.
>>220671349Sorry, small correction: they were smuggling Krugerrand. I got my racist South African movie villain plots mixed up.
Because black people in the 90s grew up in the 60s/70s which is why they were cool. Today's black people grew up in the 90s/00s where nigger culture was really glorified
>>220671349but like, dude, men were more badass then though.
>>220671349>You should go rewatch Lethal Weapon 2 if you genuinely believe this.>blah blah blah>If that isn’t “whine and preachy” by this shithole board then nothing is.

>>220670093well posted
>>220671257English, motherfucker.
its now everywhere. no escape
>>220666184>way cooler in the 90's?You mean 90s
One thing that's going on back then that hasn't been talked about enough is that most everything about movies then were better, so diversity didn't feel so out of place. It still was not as "preachy" generally then either, and the movies were written and acted better so minorities were as out of place. But movies for a while have just been worse at everything, so you're more likely to spot other flaws, like a minority cast simply for being a minority.
>>220667090>lissen wytboy, black don't cr-ACK!
>>220670093>This fictional retelling of an old myth takes large liberties with the material as it changes things and even adds a black guy but it’s okay because it’s old now even though clearly they went out of their way>Meanwhile casting black people in a mythical epic where fantasy creatures exist and one of the character is supposed to be a daughter of Zeus is bad and evil and white genocide because I say so. Also white people playing Mediterranean and Greek characters is fine. I hate black people so to me only black actors is offensive casting
>>220666184Yes. Black culture & fashion didn't quite jump the shark the way it did in the 2010s.In the 90s, adopting hip-hop style, tall, leggy basketball players started wearing long shorts, and thus the hot-pant, short shorts went out of style for men. Now, b-ball players literally wear stockings.They are no longer cool.
>>220671730I would say they're partially related as well though. They will definitely be more likely to altruistically cast a minority now whereas back then you had to also be some kind of box office draw to get the role. Right now, they're willing to eat box office losses to cast those roles.
The actual answer is a bit /pol/ tier only with a twist: the elite, and Hollywood, had a higher composition of Jews back then. A more Jewish media elite was simply smarter than the current less Jewish elite. Essentially, diversity ended Jewish dominance. /pol/ doesn't want to accept this, libshits don't know about it, but if you check the stats for universities and various other institutions after the 2010s, it's true.
>>220671730>most everything about movies then were betterPeople who say this have not watched all the dogshit movies being made during this period and just think because they saw the Oscar winning classics that everything was like that. You had plenty of stuff that looked garbage from modern POV. Especially on TV side
>>220671795I've watched or rewatched mediocre movies from then and it's just small things I appreciate more. Lack of jarring CGI, better lighting, and just the way the cameras looked back then are better now. Third one is a bit subjective but the lighting thing is a demonstrably proven downgrade because of the need to edit things in post.
>>220669425>90's movie:>Woman is an action hero.>2010/2020 movie.>Woman is an action hero. The very first man she encounters goes "Hey baby, give us a smile!". Half the men in minor roles in the movie refer to her as "sweetheart".>Scene where a nice guy she trusted attempts to rape her.In the 90s they made action movies that starred women. In the 2010s they make Thelma and Louise and stick some action scenes in it.
>>220666184Because it was truly separate but equal
Is 4chan diversity done right? This site has people from all races yet most of the time they can live with each other in peace, especially when their hatred is channeled on a common enemy.
>>220671897/pol/ is unironically the most diverse board in this website
>>220671897>>220671924Then /pol/ would be a counter-example because 99% of the posts are "X thing happened, what now chuds?"
>>220666184wtf is wayans wearing kek
>>220671897Maybe 15-20 years ago. Now it's a jeet infested shithole.

>>220671795I want you choke on that non argument, redditard.Yes, I do, and they were better.Shit existing is irrelevant, compare the rest.Take your best now against the best back then and feel the embarassment
>>220671759>hyperbolic redicalized strawman
>>220673964>I will just post a superfluous image and pretend I have won the argument
>>220666184it was done differently.first off they were all heterosexual normal people. not trannies libtard freaks etc.secondly it was often done like "yeah, we wont pretend you and me arent different, but we have a common enemy/goal"and there was no "wahh im a victim! im oppressed!!"
>>220671759total bullshit that reframes or ignores anon's point. admiral try though fag
>>220674041>STOP NOTICING CHUD!!!stop being disingenuous and a liar while pretending you don't understand the argument, then, little racist
>>220666184You hadn't had the far right spamming the internet with their propaganda.
>>220674184>You hadn't had the far right spamming the internet with their propaganda.
>>220666184Intent matters. There used to be a pretense of merit to racially biased casting, but now media producers outright admit that "representing marginalized communities" is more important than anything else, including making a faithful or compelling story. Meanwhile disingenuous libshits will acknowledge this privately while simultaneously wagging their fingers and saying "umm ackshually they just happened to be the best person for the role"
>>220674198Chud really thought he was cooking with this
>>220670093One of the best analysii I've read otb in months. The sweet irony of this example is that the story turns RH into a rich kid turned social activist, which is literally the cornerstone of diversity/wokeism think.
Actual reason: they were lower in rank. It didn't matter that the black guy was more succesful than the loser white guy. Both of them knew the actual hierarchy in their respective society. Iirc there's even a scene where the black guy gets harassed by polis without good reason. That's the movie reminding the viewer of how it is. They didn't have help from Blackrock to elevate them to a status that's not of their own making.
>>220674270>wokey posts disningenuous hypocrite lie>gets called out for that>wokey acts like he won, because why not
>>220674302while the meritocracy argument is valid, you phrased all this in a racist way that doesn't help any argument
>>220674124It was just old good, new bad because I puke out a plot summary. If they released Connery’s Robin Hood today people like him would bitch and whine that they’re pushing woke agenda to putting in OC black man just for DEI purposes. You know, I know it, this whole hypocritical board knows that racists fucks change their argument on the fly and contradict themselves all the time because it’s just about being angry at brown people being cast in movies and not some kind of principle. That is why you constantly see people lying out of their ass that in the 90s it wasn’t “forced” and then play mental gymnastics excuses when it was okay when Morgan Freeman played a white guy role or how it wasn’t “preachy” and then refuse completely to acknowledge movies like aforementioned Lethal Weapon 2 and how they always wore their politics, like anti-racist message, on their sleeve.
>>220674361It's a fantasy that the 90's etc. were racism-free. What's relatively new is that the forced diversity propaganda is real and it's done so that we as plebs can fight amongst ourselves.No more OWS allowed, do you hear?
>>220674520Occupy didn't change anything because leftists have continually demonstrated that they don't actually believe working class politics take precedence over coddling and pandering towards browns and women. Even the ones who believe it was a manufactured D&C agenda will NEVER condemn ethnic tribalism. This is just how leftists absolve themselves from responsibility knowing that they've abandoned the ideological roots of their politics.>you see it's the CORPORATIONS fault that we endlessly pander to browns, women, and trannies. They MADE us do it. >But no, we won't change anything even if we do believe this.
>>220674638>Occupy didn't change anythingCorrect, but they still didn't like it. Got too close for comfort.>>you see it's the CORPORATIONS fault that we endlessly pander to browns, women, and trannies. They MADE us do it.This but unironically. When was it ever good to be on the corpos and government's side? They are fanning the fires and they have unlimited resources to keep us busy.
>>220674730>They are fanning the fires and they have unlimited resources to keep us busy.If leftists actually believed this then they would put a stop to it. When you're in a hole the first thing you do is stop digging, but leftists and progressives will never do so, because they DO believe in identity politics for minorities.
>>220674520I'd rather say that by the 90s it was race-war free, and definitely it wasn't directed at the audience
>>220666184You weren't brainwashed by the zionist maga movement to hate it
>>220666637>Blacks were doing much better in the 1950s than now. Welfare has destroyed them and now it's destroying whites too.black economic prosperity peaked in the 1920s and was already on the decline by the 50s
>>220674949>You weren't brainwashed by the zionist maga movement to hate itSee >>220674198
>>220666184Because it allowed stereotypes (ie how people actually are)This is why we don't have hoodkino movies anymore as they aren't political correct despite being 100% accurate so Hollywood will never greenlight any of those If you want your black film it needs to be a zesty soap opera, comedy or a hall mark film but instead of white people it's black people with 0 of the typical stereotypes that happen in an actual black family
>>220671759you quoting someone specific or voices in yoir head?
>>220666184Because they weren't afraid of talking shit. Buddy Cop/Odd Couple dynamics are all about banter. Giving each other shit, the kind of shit that only kindred spirits can exchange without deeply offending each other. Today that is lost because writers take the audiences sensibilities into consideration when writing the banter. That ruins everything. Every bit of authenticity and relatability goes out the window.
>>220666184women most of the being jewish came into positions of power and over did it, so tiresome at this point
>>220668373Uh oh ranjeet stinky
>>220677553speak English, thirdie
>>220671349The worst part of Lethal Weapon 2 is how they reveal that the random henchman mook is the person who killed Riggs' wife and thus is the source of all of his trauma and depression. He acts smug about it too. It's so retarded that this random guy is the linchpin of the character's motivation. Sorry it's a tangent but I had to say it.
>>220668838then ratings went down and they shitcanned him
>>220666184It wasn't cool, it sucked. I was a child in Scandinavia with nobody influencing me either way and hood ghetto shit made me physically nauseous. The only tolerable blacks were the ones who acted white like Will Smith.
There was more actual diversity of thought. Stargate had two different nazi episodes, a reasonable fun one and a seething unwatchable one designed entirely around manipulating the viewer instead of making an interesting show.
>>220677671That was incredibly stupid, yes.
>>220671349LW2 is my favourite of the series, anon but if you watched the scene then you wouldn't have said what you saidLeo goes in to cause a distraction. The SA man is fine with the idea of anyone coming to SA but after Leo calls in Murtagh, the SA guy is taken back and is pointing out that it's not wise to go to SA because he's black. In fact, the concept of Murtagh is, logically played as funny, as being a black man wanting to go to SA.The SA guy is confused as fuck given what was going in SA at the time and advises him to listen to Leo. Murtagh causes a scene and Leo joins in all so Riggs can get in quietly.but the protests outside embassies were done realistically based on reality at the time. Just like in the third movie the black gangbanging kid being shot had his dad not want to murder Roger since he understood Roger wasn't a psycho cop who wanted to kill a kidBut even the first movie can go further, the first movie had Rianne get a crush on Riggs and everyone teasing her about it without Roger or Trish freaking out their eldest daughter likes a White manAll the fucking villains are overblownly eveilMr. Joshua blows up a fucking house and is identified by a fucking tattoo that only Riggs and his crew got. He fucking holds out his fucking arm to get it burned to show how 'tough' he is. The second one has 'lolz diplomatic immunity' that was just revoked. Three has Travis be the super corrupt cop, knows where the cameras are, supplies guns to teens, tries to fucking run over Riggs with a construction vehicle and put sout 'cop killer bullets to the market. Four has Jet Li and the mystical Asian menLike holy fucking SHIT did you ever watch any of the fucking LW movies
>>220666345Niggers have become insufferable, and the propaganda that made people ignore it in the 90s has worn off.
>>220666978Unironically yes, they need harsh physical ramifications for bad behavior. It's the only thing they understand due to their lower iq.
>>220666184Because the majority of us were not exposed to the reality of diversity. You just saw the happy nog family on TV and school brainwashed you to think they were your equals. Most of you didn't have first hand experience
>>220667341>Rodney KingThey didn't veat him hard enough imo
>>220677838Ok, I have to say this too, but LW3 is insanely shit, but there's one scene that makes me laugh, where the evil cop is in his construction office while Riggs and Murtaugh sneak in and start blowing the whole fucking place up, and then a henchman bursts in the door screaming "Boss it's the cops they're torching the joint!" and the bad guy looks shocked like he couldn't hear or feel half his fucking compound explode in the past two minutes.
>>220678091LW3 was just shit since there really wasn't a good hookIn 1 it was 'the fuck is the suicidal guy going to get along with the family man' and then having to work together to solve the 'not suicide I think' case and eventually see eye to eye and rely on one another to rescue Rianne and fail but still manage it sort ofLW2 had the hook of they originally killed his wife but also brought in Pesci as a funnier actor to actually move towards comedy tooLW3 was hit or miss I think. It really did try to go more into the typical cop movie drama that was common on tv too but it still had some comedy bits4 was hilarious and everyone enjoys flied lice
>>220677838Did he or did he not go in, troll the Afrikaneers, make a little speech and get applauded by the protesters? Is the movie not heavily about South Africa being an evil, racist country as depicted by its diplomat villain and it’s apartheid policy being portrayed as bad? The movie is addressing a highly political topic during a period of time where Reagan had repeatedly been criticised for his stance on the issue, and that motherfucker literally tried to veto the anti-apartheid act and congress just overruled him. Wake the fuck up, dude. If Lethal Weapon 2 doesn’t count as preachy or too political then the bar is set so high that nothing would count as preachy.
>>220678431>Did he or did he not go in, troll the Afrikaneers, make a little speech and get applauded by the protesters? Is the movie not heavily about South Africa being an evil, racist country as depicted by its diplomat villain and it’s apartheid policy being portrayed as bad?Actually, no. He didn't. Watch the scene again.
>>220668305You cant' even find goatse on google images anymore baka
>>220666184Jews hadn't decided to use it as a divide and conquer tactic yet
>>220678475Oh so South Africa is depicted as good guys? Murtaugh doesn’t think they’re racists?
>>220678526Please go and see the scene again before commenting with fake argumentsI will not bother with you again
>>220666184The 90s was the last era when blacks had a chance to speak for themselves before they got subverted by jews and their liberal golems.
>>220678559So you’re denying that South Africa is made to bad in the movie? That they aren’t racists in it? That’s pretty bold.
Culture war was started by rightoids. The so-called woke was a natural evolution of what came before.
>>220678213Huh, I never watched 4 because 3 was such a lame retread (Pesci rants about drive through again!!! LOL!) that I figured the series was washed.
>>220678685This is such weak bait
>>220678725It's not a bait, it's a fact.
That movie sucked.
>>2206786893 was pretty bad since it tried to do 'serious cop drama' with 'comedy'4 isn't too bad but it's really hit or miss for most people. I like it. Pirate it and try it
>>220678795"all non-pocs should be crippled in favor of pocs" being the main talking point after decades of "pocs and non-pocs should coexist together" is not a natural evolution
>>220678876Yeah, it also never happened.
>>220678933>argumentum ad dishonestumI accept you're contusion
>>220667152He is 10 years older but I do have to say that Gibson is an absolute unit for a 70 year old man.I guess we will see in 10 years if the jews don't get him, huh?
>>220678876Just more racists lies, I see
>>220666184Obama didn't fuck it up until the 2000s
>>220666184Just watched this thanks.peak 90s comfort
>>220678956You people always exaggerate. The vast majority of movies had white leads even at the peak of wokeness, meanwhile you cried about any raceswap.
>>220666184Begging the question. Someone cook up the next thread.
>>220666184Because back then it was ethnic novelty and not an anti-white agenda.
>>220668065Ok zoomer
>>220666184Because back in the 90´s it was no about diversity at all. Eddie Murphy, Morgan Freeman, Wesley Snipes, Cuba Gooding Jr, Danny Glover and so one were not reduced to their race, it was not about meeting a quota. But don´t take it from me, just listen to Morgan Freeman tell it like it ishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRzd7SknVrQThe media has worked really hard to naturalize a conflict and a wrong way of thinking about things that just wasn´t a thing back then.
>>220666184Because it was done in a genuine, artistic way before. It was meant to entertain and provide value to the viewer, unlike today where it's done in the laziest most pathetic way possible because people making shows and media today are creatively bankrupt. Modern depictions have no thought behind it. It's blatantly forced and serving no purpose other than 'we need to have a non-white person for le representation' instead of 'how can we incorporate this non white character in a way that meaningfully adds to the story and creates a character that is fun and likable'. They just add non white people to stuff as a token gesture kind of way, and probably most people don't like that, because it's just that pathetic and annoying. It's not because people hate blacks or browns.
>>220679117Obamna isn't responsible for your little white penor. Bet you don't even know his last name.
>>220666184Modern movies just feel like they're made for normal people anymore, they're made for some hypothetical trans disabled black autistic person who lives in Los Angeles
>>220666503It's hard god damn work making something this pretty look like a chump.
>>220677825I remember nazi Odo, what was the other one?
>>220679447>it was no about diversity at all.If you ask Eddie Murphy or any black filmmaker from the 80s or 90s they will all talk about how much they worked to add diversity and get more black people hired on their films because of how racist and discriminatory Hollywood was, so that people could finally get their foot inside the door and get a break. It’s incredibly how pampered and ignorant people here keep saying this same stupid shit that “oh nobody was thinking about diversity”. They were, it just looked different, because it was a different era you stupid idiots. Bill fucking Cosby went out of his way to create his sitcom to break stereotypes and diversify how black people and families were depicted and what roles they could play. Because minorities were still largely struggling to get even a fraction of the same opportunities that were being automatically given to white people without any consideration of could the role be played by a latino or asian or black actor.In the 80s there was only like two black directors allowed to work in Hollywood and one of them was Bill Duke, and he’s been very open about how much racism he saw and even experienced personally. Security guards wouldn’t let him inside because they didn’t believe he was the director. That shit is exactly why creative side was constantly butting heads with studios and fighting to diversify casting and stories because studio heads would unironically say “let’s cast Julia Roberts as Harriet Tubman, why would we want to hire a black woman?”
>>220666184The black people were playing black characters, not blackwashed characters from remakes.
>>220680576Morgan Freeman was playing a white guy’s role in Shawshank. Billy Dee Williams played Two-Face pre-disfigurement on two Batman movies. You stupid, ignorant dimwit
>>220677838You do know they race swapped Murtaugh to be a black character, right? He wasn’t black in the script.
>>220680554And then they completely destroyed the black family structure and black culture, through their efforts turning them from one of the more successful demographics (considering they just came out of slavery and absolute poverty), having more stable families than US whites, into the least successful. Amazing work. But you're right of course, and it shows clearly if you just watch these movies with it in mind. They're extremely racist, just like the movies today are, they were just more competently made.
>>220680674NoThey never had a race for Murtagh
>>220680516"Between Two Fires" Season 5, Episode 9.The Tollans are portrayed as flawed and authoritarian, yet still worth saving as fellow advanced humans, contrasting with episodes like "The Other Side" where the racist Eurondans are explicitly abandoned and wiped out of existence for being racist.
