This whole race, gender, and whatever Body Politics shit is ridiculos. Growing up I would read the paper before school and come home and internet and there would be non of this race and gender shit. No one cared. I wish these race and gender baiting faggots would just cut the shit and do actual news stories.

80% of nurses are females

80% of the NBA is black

wow, it's like some groups excel at some things more than others

I'm so fucking tired of leftists peddling race and sex as the most important human traits you can judge a person on

Isn't that ironic? Biggest racists/sexists today: liberals. Fuck you faggots. Islam when

>Does /tv/ think PoC should be nominated more?
If they merit it, I have no issue. If you're selecting people based purely on tokenism then all you succeed in doing is devaluing the award.

Now, some may argue that Oscars have no real value, but the Academy would say otherwise and if they wish to maintain the idea they're the most prestigious prize in cinema, selecting nominees based on race rather than ability, is not only incredibly patronising and condescending, but out right wrong.

Do these critics really think non-white actors would rather be judged upon the colour of their skin, or their skill as a performer, because they're essentially advocating the former.

>>64954174
exactly. They aren't called minorities for no reason.

>>64954155
But anon, growing up, we didn't live in the golden age of Identity Politics that the Left has created to gain power from the dumb masses.

>>64954336
You dont understand SJW. They are whiners. They don't think rationally like other people do. They think that the white race is the main reason why the other races can't succeed.

>>64953995
it goes further than that

women get in before niggers for playing roles that are essentially just themselves, like Jennifer Lawrence

Meanwhile men have a cut-throat competition, Will Smith had to become someone else physically, verbally and emotionally in order to fullfill his role.

Same for 90% of the actors in that category

>>64954478

There is nothing reasonable about the charges levied in the OP, nor in judging people based off of the color of their skin, which this author is obviously doing.

Blacks are not involved or interested in filmmaking in anything close to the same degree whites are, and are only moderately involved in acting

at the end of the day they are 12% of this country and have different values, that is going to manifest in different industrial results

do you fucking get that

>>64954155

people have a yearning and thirst for conflict and war because their lives are so peaceful and dull that they want some excitement, so they pick at the scabs of society by constantly needling the racial/gender angle in order to provoke some major happenings.

if we all had a proper good war, none of this would be happening and people would be getting their anger and frustration out in other ways.

>>64953995
People of color shouldn't be nominated simply because they're not white. However, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a little bit of bias (probably unconscious bias) in the nomination process.

The Oscars are largely voted-on by white people over age 50, after all.

>>64954155

>>64954946

Perversely overrepresented. We're talking about a group of people that constitute barely 2% of this country and are present at levels of 50% at several stages of filmmaking and production.

This is the biggest, clearest, case of "bias" in Hollywood and SHOULD be the first thing addressed, and yet it won't be, because the white man is the SJW's eternal satan.

By any metric (history, culture, genetics) Ashkenazi Jews are incredibly white.

The only reason you consider Jews to be non-white is because they are non-Christian, but by this metric the Vikings weren't white either.

regardless of the bullshit reasons regarding legitimising netflix, Beasts of No Nation was snubbed hard

Not to agree with these retards but do you really equate white males as white people in general?

>>64954157

Blacks go into sports because it's literally the only way they can get into college or high paying jobs.

Whites aren't in sports because it's LITERALLY beneath them, and the only connection whites will have in sports is profiting off their negro servants dribbling good or running the touchdown, or directing said servants by the sidelines as a pot-bellied coach (they even call them "coach" over their name, like the slaves of old would say "master.")

You are literally retarded. For a set academic performance blacks/darkies have higher acceptance rates not only for bachelors, but also graduate degrees.
