So they cast a historical white figure as black...


...and if WE don't like it, we're RACIST!?!?!

The world has indeed gone WOKE MAD.

It’s bonkers and makes no sense. Imagine if they made another movie about Malcolm X and cast a white guy.

I consider this to be fair payback for casting John Wayne as Genghis Khan*!

Start complaining when the movies with blackwashing start outnumbering those with whitewashing, which will take, well, a century or so.





* No, really, Wayne DID play Khan! "The Conqueror" (1956).

I know, I've seen the images. Worst casting ever, apparently. AND the movie sucks, according to reviews and ratings.

If you want a good and fairly accurate movie about Boleyn, "Anne of the Thousand Days" is available on streaming.

reply

You are aware that the producers were actually going to discard The Conqueror until Wayne stumbled upon the script and demanded it be made. They actually tried to talk him out of doing it but he had the clout and the producers caved.

Didn't realize Turner-Smith is from Mongolia...

"Start complaining when the movies with blackwashing start outnumbering those with whitewashing, which will take, well, a century or so."

At this rate, more like a year or two.

"Tit-for-tat" is one of the most idiotic excuses a person can use.

a terrible movie

Ok so it's not about principles it's who has the biggest claim ... So let us know after how many blackwash people can complain. It doesn't make sense.

So based on your logic the jews are entitled to kill germans on sight until they counter the deaths in the holocaust?

You can use any categories here.

As an example: the socialists have killed my grandfather (factual). So it's ok for me to kill a socialist (TheArgentinian) to even the score.

Or any "eye-for-an-eye" you want to use.

PS: btw, you leftists always shout about how the republicans are fascists or nazi and trump is literal Hitler. So i guess you should let your side know about that law ;)

The point is: your double standards are showing, again.

reply

All you show is stupidity and ignorance. Bye, troll

That's how I feel about all your posts, showing no deep thought on the the consequences of your stupid ideology.

I hope you will at least stick to your last comment. But I doubt it ...

"if the left wouldn't have double standards they would have no standards at all" - this stupid phrase proves to be real ...

What an utterly inane and ridiculous argument.
