Reporting the factual news is now racist and offensive.
How the fuck is Tarantino getting a bye on all of this?
Classic story about the filing of that scene ...
Regarding the Django Unchained shoot, Foxx recalled DiCaprio fretting about saying the n-word over and over in character. “It’s tough for me to say this,” Foxx said DiCaprio told him on the set. But Samuel Jackson encouraged DiCaprio to set his concerns aside.
“Get over it, motherf—-r,” Foxx recalled Jackson saying. “It’s just another Tuesday, motherf—-r. I don’t give a f— about these motherf—-rs. Look who I am.” Foxx seconded that motion, telling DiCaprio to think from the point-of-view of slave-owner.

There’s nothing not to love about Django. What a movie.

What a great quote from that a article. Not
"Channel 4 have to go through a process of educating and making sure Ant Middleton takes the right side of history."
I am really getting to fucking hate all these preachy fluffybunnies and the way they are infecting every strata of our society. fluffybunnies.
Edit: And I would really like the fluffybunny filter turned off just for this post. I feel that strongly.

@Bones said in Black Lives Matter:
Should probably segregate medical care eh.
Less than 3 minutes on the web and you find 42% of the doctors in Florida (where the research was from) are non-white - but it's only the white doctors and their "unconscious racism" who are at fault according to the Guardian.
Either they have given up hiding their agenda or it's just lazy journalism. Probably both.

@Bones I don't see the overall aims of BLM as anti-Christian. That is where I disagree with Billy V.
But it's a choice. I am fine with him or anyone else not kneeling if they didn't want to.
I really doubt whether Billy V kneels or not influences the decline of racism in the UK.

@sparky said in Black Lives Matter:
Billy Vuinpola, like his pal Israel Folau, has criticised Black Lives Matters:
"Vunipola told The Good, The Bad & The Rugby podcast that his views were based on what he perceived to be the “burning of churches and Bibles” in the name of Black Lives Matter. There is little evidence to support the claim that the movement has burned any churches."
Translation: Billy is full of shit.

No they have just torched entire neighbourhoods with those buckhead PAntifa boys. BLM in the US is anti Christian, their leaders based the ideology of the movement on Marxist problems.
People are reading the so "systemic racism" crap without looking at what it means. If they had just found used on police brutality in the isolated incidents I would agree with that, now they want reparations. Wake up guys.

Was taken aback at his comments but checked out them out and he's not exactly wrong,
BLM leaders like Shaun King have called for churches to be destroyed as they represent white supremacy and there have been a number of suspected BLM-related fires, In Portland BLM protestors burned bibles "as Jesus is portrayed as white"

Sauce for the BLM goose?

Could Oxbridge be next? Unlikely with the liberal left UK judiciary.

I don't know the whether or not what Billy said was true (it seems plausible, IMO). I was merely commenting on the way in which The Grauniad commented on his comments.

This will be a proper culture war standoff in America. Army sergeant driving for ride sharing firm in Texas encounters BLM protestors, one of which is legally carrying an AK47 which he points at driver whilst mob shakes car. Driver shoots him dead with a handgun, someone else in BLM shoots at car. Driver speeds off, turns himself in to police. Gets released without charge.
Awful, tragic, wouldn't have happened if guns weren't so prolific, but how do you put the toothpaste back in the tube?

Impossible. I certainly dont blame the driver in that instance

So George Floyd wasn't murdered.
Fentanyl and methamphetamine plus 8 minutes of bodycam footage of civility, procedure and acquiescing to Floyd's request to not in sit a squad car but to lie on the ground. No signs of racism and much evidence of a man struggling with drugs who repeatedly tells police he can't breathe.
Once again we've all been fooled, quite understandably in this case, by a video being matched to a narrative. Same thing happened with the Covington kids.
There's no way Chauvin can be found guilty of murder, except for an OJ Simpson placatory verdict. The other police officers have been surely exonerated. No neck or chest trauma from the autopsy.
People have already burned cities based on a murder that fits no legal definition
So what's it to be? Will legal justice or social justice rule over this case
This is going to be a big problem... again.
