Color blind casting is the future get over it


So funny to see all the racists crying about this show because it casts black people. Face it, the future of movies and theatre is cool blind casting. It is the perfect way to achieve diversity and representation without any form of discrimination and it is a great thing that the industry is moving in this direction. The days of whites as the default are over.

If they are making a choice to cast black people...how is that "color blind"... They obviously see color if they are making the choice of casting black people.

It isn't color blind casting the OP is an idiot and has no clue what is going on. It is "quota casting" and it will not last. When you pander to a shrinking minority at the expense of the majority the bottom line will suffer and eventually the shareholders will demand the bad management is replaced. The fact is more and more people are tired of the quota casting and want to see proper casting. The people don't want to see a black tranny playing the Queen of England simply because it makes a shrinking group of harpies in Hollywood happy.

If that's the case. Will the interracial couple shown on the MC page have an oriental child? Color blind casting after all.

It's not racist to expect a film that claims to depict a specific time and place to maintain some degree of fidelity to the reality of that time and place.

If color blind casting is the future, then we could have a film about the Zulu in which a third or half the actors portraying Zulus are white. And nobody will complain, right? Oh, but wait, that's different! It doesn't work both ways, because that would be racist!

The hypocrisy is astounding.

A famous black athlete played by a short Eskimo would be great casting!

We can redo Brian's Song with Jackie Chan playing Brian and Kevin James as Gayle Sayers.

As someone here ( I think ) said it's "cultural appropriation". Can you imagine the outrage if the situation was reversed and white people were taking credit for the achievements of black people ? The Woke Brigade's one way blindness and hypocrisy is beyond belief.

Stop being a racist troll.

Is there really anybody in this world who believes we're in the age of color blind casting?

reply

Lol @ Thinking there's a future. The US is on a SHARP decline thanks largely to 'diversity'.

reply

That's not blind. If that's a technical term for this concept then it's an ironical technical term.

Either way, NOT BLIND.
