Doubt.

Assuming you're not full of shit, they're the kind of people who constantly whine about her mere existence and still do so to this day, rendering your statement that the only people who care about this are the people defending her ignorant at best and an outright lie at worst.

So if you truly don't know who they are maybe don't spew bullshit when you're clearly ignorant of the situation.

If you're looking for a place to get a good steak would you ask a vegetarian their opinion
Vegetarian is a lifestyle choice. Not a race.

Again if someone said "I don't care what Asian people have to say about Lord of The Rings, that's for whites. You wouldn't ask a Vegan about steak!" I wonder if you would hold the same opinion or if you would think it's horrific.

I dont need a 40-year-old white dude to tell me what didnt work about A Wrinkle in Time. It wasnt made for him! I want to know what that film meant to women of color, to biracial women, to teen women of color, to teens that are biracial.

And for the third time, I dont hate white dudes. These are just facts, these are not my feelings, she added. About a year ago, I started paying attention to what my press days looked like and the critics reviewing movies, and noticed it appeared to be overwhelmingly white male.

So, I spoke to Dr. Stacy Smith at the USC Annenberg Inclusion Initiative, who put together a study to confirm that. Moving forward, I decided to make sure my press days were more inclusive

After speaking with you, the film critic Valerie Complex and a few other women of colour, it sounded like across the board they werent getting the same opportunities as others. When I talked to the facilities that werent providing it, they all had different excuses.

Up to you if it bothers you or not. But if she said "Black" instead of "White" I have a sneaking suspicion users in this topic would not be pretending it's not racist.

She clarified her statement Am I saying I hate white dudes? No, I am not. What I am saying is if you make a movie that is a love letter to women of color, there is an insanely low chance a woman of color will have a chance to see your movie, and review your movie.

Do you really think it's wrong for her to want opinions from people who aren't white men of a film about and for women of color or do you believe only white men are allowed to review films?

The problem with your "logic" is that you're assigning a target audience to a movie that didn't have one for the sake of making an "argument".

But when a movie or any other form of media is geared towards a specific demographic, then that demographic's opinion of it does matter a lot more than others who may be reviewing it from a position of bad faith.

If, for example, you make a coming-of-age movie about a gay teenager intended to help other gay teens understand themselves and others better, the opinions of that demographic and how they receive it are what matters, not the bigoted boomer chuds who are going to scream "woke" at it.

Just like how the alt-right youtube reviewers will post a 40 minute scathing review for a show made for 10 year old girls... when they're 40 year old white dudes without kids.

Like, at a certain point, you just have to acknowledge that some things aren't meant for you, and fuck off.

I don't believe race matters personally. I'd never discard someone's opinion because they're the incorrect race.

But you're flailing to start an argument. You (Well TC) asked why people don't like her, this is the biggest reason why.

Whether racism bothers you or not is up to you and your life. I can still read HP Lovecraft and watch James Woods' movies. Hell I will never pretend Kevin Sorbo wasn't amazing Hercules.

But I'm not going to pretend I don't comprehend why people don't like them.

I mean you say this but I garantee if someone said "I don't care what gay people think, this movie/book etc is for straights." you would instantly disown this viewpoint instead of championing it.

Especially if it was someone "chud"esq. Like Clint Eastwood.

Either way, even if it doesn't bother you, you're egotystical if you can't see why it bothers others.

How come other famous women don't get the hate?

Margot Robbie is viewed as the only good thing about Suicide Squad. Where was the sexist dirtbags there?
or Meryl Streep? or Natalie Portman? or Sigourney Weaver?

There are 2 options

  1. It's because of her comments and poor acting performances.
  2. Every sexist dirtbag on Earth coincidentally has heard of Larson but no one else.

Because too many men are insecure manchildren. Instead of learning how to treat women with the same respect as everyone else, they blame them for their failures.

We have some men at work who are like this. They always talk like they're the only ones who get it and that everything young people and women say, is wrong. It's such a weak, pathetic mindset. I consider people "strong" when they don't always put themselves first. The will to self-reflect, to improve and to avoid generalizing are attributes of strong men (strong people in general).

This is literally the "All Lives Matter" of posts.

White, straight people, especially men, have movies made with them as the target audience all the fucking time. They just don't need to call themselves out because the bulk of movies and TV are pretty clearly designed with them as the core demographic, because you can look at the cast and see who the movie's being made for.

This is why they tend to shit themselves silly every time a movie that's not made for them comes out and get hyper-critical to find every little fault they can with it, imagined or not.

Just look at who the people yelling "this is woke" at everything that doesn't look or act like them are.

It's a dangerous attitude to repeatedly decide what other people 'actually' think, refuse to talk to them and then hate them for being 'wrong.'

You were wrong with your assumption about me and TheQuartering but instead of learning and apologizing when corrected, you double down on it

Now off handedly you decide everyone who criticizes Larson is "an incel who she struck a nerve with"
