So.... it turns out that this tribe was actually pro-slavery, while white colonizers were anti-slavery

What a weird flex from Hollywood, given that there are clear examples of pro-slavery white colonizers fighting the anti-slavery tribes in Africa.

Black people are now openly boycotting this film due to massive revision of history.

When did hollywood tell the truth?

reply

True - every 'based on true story' film seems to contain plenty of inaccuracies, but in this instance, they've really gone overboard, even by Hollywood standards. It's basically akin to a film where Hitler is portrayed as the good guy fighting the evil Americans/Russkies with 'based on true story' sticker.

If that would have advanced the agenda of the bolsheviks then that film would have been made decades ago, with several remakes, sequels and prequels.

IMDB says that this film is 'inspired by true events". Who is saying it was "based on a true story"? As far as I know, the only real person in the film is Ghezo. I've also seen the words "alternate history" on IMDB.

Who is this aimed at? I know I never said this was based on a true story. I do have tards on ignore though so is that who?

Aimed at maximmm. I'll fix it.

Yeah Sparky never said that though. You're rebutting an argument that never happened.

Woke Hollywood knows and it did that on purpose. Many uneducated people wont go to Internet to check out real events.

Its racist movie and no one should watch this.

I wish there would be an actual reporters and ask this question into the faces of director and actors. But there are no reporters in Hollywood. They are just woke propagandists.

They don't care about historical accuracy only about pushing their narrative. They are post-modernists who don't believe there is such a thing as "truth".

reply

I hear you, but what I find to be surreal is how lazy they are about doing any sort of research when pushing their narrative. The narrative they are going for is easy to push - Africa had white people come in, take black people as slaves - fought some tribes in the process. This did happen and it is easy to sell. But their fact checkers completely fucked up - or it may also be that whoever they hired to get the tribe names and time period right to fit the narrative openly sabotaged the whole thing, in which case I applaud that person - lol

reply

They aren't "Being Lazy" and just missing this stuff. Its all about getting people to fight so they give both sides a leg to stand on.
