For all of the talk of "hollywood iz teh librul!! hollyweird!" it seems like hollywood is hell bent on making latinos the new enemy, instead of nazis, USSR soviets, aliens from outer space or mad scientists.
Think about it: 2019 - The next terminator? The evil terminator trying to kill humanity is mexican. 2019- Rambo: The last blood: "latinos are bad. shoot them all. pew pew pew Rambo is a badass!" 2018 - The Mule: Clint Eastwood is a good man and Korean War veteran forced to be a drug mule by bad mexicans from mexico because it's the mexican thing to do 2013- The Last Stand: Arnold Schwarzenegger is a good sheriff trying to stop the bad mexican drug dealers to go back to mexico and get away with their horrible mexican crimes See a pattern? These "bad mexican is bad" movies were not very frequent up to 2013, suddenly we have 3 of them within a 10 month span. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Didn't even bring up the Sicario movies. Such a bad oversight. The first one paints the Americans as being no better than the cartels. The second one was uncritically based upon the chain e-mail your <insert old Fox News obsessed relative here> forwarded you in 2008. Hollywood is run by old white men, like everything else, and, at best, theyre risk-averse. At worst, they sexually harass people and/or are racist. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah, I remember that back when we lived in normal times, Wolfenstein 3D and its successor were uncontroversial games. Then the alt right happened and the latest wolfeinstein game was criticized for shooting nazis, lol. MrPeppers posted... You picked 4 movies. In all of the hollywood releases since 2013.

No. I gave 4 examples from 2018 and 2019 and and one from 2013 to show the speed in which "mexican bad hombre be bad!" movies have been released, to none in years to 4 in 11 months since MAGA ...

I know it's a scary thought for some people to accept, but being left-wing doesn't actually grant you a mystical immunity to being a piece of shit. Even if racism were a growing trend in Hollywood (I can't comment on this, I don't follow the movie industry) it would have no bearing on any sort of liberal/conservative shift.
