Why is imdb full of racist low lifes


And more importantly: Why doesn't any staff block those users?

reply

If like to know why this movie is so blatantly racist

reply

Acknowledging race does not equate to racism. The fact that you believe it does, is the reason why you will continue to be called a racist until you change

reply

I'd like to know when you plan on doing something useful with your snowflake supremacist life. Right now you're wasting the planet's oxygen supply.

reply

Lives*...

reply

And why should IMDb block them? Because they don't like a movie? Are you stupid or pretending?

reply

So they dislike a movie that isn't even out yet?!?

reply

There are only 700 hundred votes, you know there are early screenings and before the movie's actual release date, right?

reply

Oops 700 votes* I can't edit because I'm on my phone and again why should IMDb block them if IMDb let them vote before its official release date in the first place?

reply

Seven hundred or 700, bro. Choose. You can't have both.
Be sure you know how to express yourself in writing before going around accusing other people of being stupid.

ON TOPIC: What the *beep* is wrong with people?! All this hate is disgusting.

reply

Are you blind or just playing stupid?

reply

Again?! Dude, check yourself, before you wreck yourself.
And thanks for giving me a hell of a laugh :D

You're missing the point. The Trump administration has been reading these message boards looking for new spokespeople. Spider-Doge has been auditioning.

Unfortunately for him, the claim that all the 1 votes are legitimate wasn't nearly extreme enough to get noticed. If he really wanted to be the next Kellyanne Conway, he needed to argue that none of the film's positive reviews actually exist.

And now it's too late for him. They've recruited all of the people they need, and so the boards are being shut down.

Prepare your minds for a new scale of physical, scientific values, gentlemen.

Daniel is obviously a retard.

329 out of 695 rated this movie a 1/10 (a movie with a metascore of 96, mind you) Preeeeettyyyyy sure these scores weren't given by people who attended early screenings... (why would one see an early screening of a movie that looks like a 1/10 to them?)

reply

Metascore these days can't be trusted... See the Ghostbusters and you will see what I'm talking about. And if you are wondering. I didn't vote because I haven't seen it but when I'll see it, I'll appreciate it for what it is.

reply

Since Milo began attacking Leslie Jones and was banned from Twitter, his minions have taken up the charge of expressing their deplorable racism, misogyny and xenophobia for him by taking over IMDb and rating movies a zero to try to undermine them. If you look at the stats on the ratings as of today, you will find that 500 of them have a zero rating. 500. No way that those folks saw the film and all decided it was a zero. This is a motivated effort to trash the movie. When is IMDb going to do something about this? 🎥

reply

Metascore can't be trusted because of one film's rating? That's a bit of a hasty generalization.

Tbh, wasn't even surprised the ratings were already skewed by those Breitbart loving pieces of *beep* it's the internet after all... Either way, added to watchlist.

Calling people a "snowflake" and echoing phrases like "safe space" have lost all their power. You have no meaning or rhetoric. When I see that language I laugh out loud at how ineffective a person you must be. The only thing that language does is out you as a racist reductive childish subservient who can't even think for themselves enough to create a unique comment or attack. As far as I can tell, it's you who is the most fearful, the most cowardly, and the most simple. It's all projection... little snowflake.

reply

"Bahh, calling people snowflake outs you as the racist you are!!!.. you little snowflake!"

Well thanks for outing yourself! Lol smh...

reply

Seems to have worked pretty well since the post I was referring to has been deleted. Guess they had to go find a safe space, huh?

Sucks when your rhetoric is used against you and you've got nothing else to lean on.

reply

Joshua, the pen truly ought to be mightier than the sword ... and in many ways it is, though the sword has silenced way way too many extraordinary and brilliant voices, as Mr. Baldwin explained, and your eloquently written review echoes.

Now, I want to make "little snowflake" the endearment of the year. Sir, your intelligence and ability to write a super fine critique are much appreciated here.

TTFN

reply

I've seen it at a screening gave it a 6/10 it definitely doesn't a one, but wasn't the greatest thing I've ever seen.

reply

Open racism and "alternative facts" are one side of free speech. An ugly side. Open forums are a perfect venue for the gutless knuckleheaded anonymous to spew. Be thankful you've been blessed with enough intelligence to think for yourself. But sadly I'd suggest you abandon hope an open blog is a dependable place for sane and intelligent discourse. Be well.

reply

To OP. Sadly because it's condoned. When bigotry is given leeway and generally is ignored that's a tragedy. As long as regular forums - as in not Stormfront (white supremacy forum) - are safe havens for poorly masked hate speech you will see a lot of that. As for the imdb staff - they generally don't have time to check every single hate monger and self-righteous jerk. Fortunately most of those are easy to spot to anybody with a sane mind.

reply

Because the world is.
