Are We Allowed One Black Star?


Cancer took away Chadwick Boseman.

Historical allegations destroyed Nate Parker's career before it even properly began.

Wesley Snipes was locked up for years over taxes (yeah, cos there aren't millions of rich white assholes who've cheated on their frickin taxes, right?)

Will Smith has been reprimanded over last year's slap.

And NOW they're trying to take Jonathan Majors away from us.

If I were Michael B Jordan I'd be watching my back right now.

It isn't just black celebrities. Charlie Sheen, Meagan Fox, Roseanne Barr, Kevin Spacey, Armie Hammer and Ezra Miller all got burned by their inappropriate behavior. These idiots should remember that once you become a celebrity your anonymity goes out the window.

The TC is too naive and arrogant to acknowledge that..

I wasn't aware a white man made him assault her.

Assuming there was an assault...

Also, where the fuck did I ever say that 'a white man made him assault' anyone?

reply

I do assume there was one. Most reasonable people would.

Who is "they"? As far as I can tell, people of all backgrounds are ready to hold him accountable. White people didn't make him take those actions and no one is wrong to put him in his place once it's proven that he committed them.

Your seeming position that he should be allowed to skate because you perceive him as talented is pretty backwards.

Don't do the crime if you don't want to do the time.

What do you mean by “they’re”? Who are “they”?

Talk to the actors. They’re the ones committing actions that ruin their careers.

he's innocent, video evidence ignoriated him

Nate Parker is a vile rapist. If you actually care to learn the whole story and look at the facts you might not defend him. He blamed his upbringing saying he did not know that not being able to consent was was like saying no. If a woman is unconscious, that does not been you should have sex with her. Is it is basic decency and logic. Also once the victim reported the rape, Parker hired a PI to spread rumors and put out notices that the victim was promiscuous. After the allegations came out Parker refused to say he regretted anything (including the suicide of the victim, which according to the family Parker was partially to blame.

Wesley Snipes cheated on his taxes. He even tried to claim religious exoneration but stated he created a religion. At trail he showed no remorse and said he was only being convicted because he was black and famous. No. You were convicted because you believed you were special and you did not need to pay millions of dollars in taxes.

Will Smith assaulted someone plain and simple.

No one took these celebrities away. They clearly made terrible mistakes and are living with the consequences.

That fact that you think these actors were taken away by either audiences or society just because they are black shows how much of a twisted logic you have. Thanks f someone said the same thing you did but replaced black with white and named white actors you would be calling them racist. Let’s correct it and call you a racist, which I think is accurate.

As long as their blackness genes keep kicking in... no.
