Didn’t the Supreme Court recently rule against affirmative action?
Suggestion:
Affirmative Action Oscar — for someone or something black.
Some guy wrote an article a few weeks ago where he compiled all the black Oscar winners and nominees from the past 20 years and it came in at 16% which is higher than the percentage of blacks in the US population which is 13% while Hispanic and Asian actors are almost never nominated much less win. Conclusion: Will Smith and his beard Jada are millionaire cry babies because they feel their arses aren’t being kissed enough, although I’m sure Will would prefer it be kissed by a man.
Yes the do need quotas.
So as they can be even more meaningless than they are now.
They absolutely need quotas.
Hoist the Hollywood libs on their own petard.
Poor White Leo. He is really campaigning this season. Even stooped to visit the Pope about climate change
Every other business has them.
Of course they need quotas.
It’s another way they can become more meaningless.
The fact that this is even being considered shows how ridiculous things have become.
Why not just hand out Oscars for participating like they do now in some sports leagues for children.
Then EVERYBODY can go home happy.
.
Simple solution, combine the Academy Award with the BET award, and only allow minorities to participate.
And while we are at it, recall all previous awards to any non-minority and melt them down.
Oh, don’t forget the Walk of Fame in Hollywood, tear up any and all STARS that are not for a minority.
I wonder if this would be enough?
Maybe we need a law, no non-minority can appear in any media.
I wonder if this would be enough?
No, I did not think so.
i have a better question: do the oscars even matter?
We need a quota of short balding overweight older White guys in the NBA. Last I looked there wasn’t a one of them! The bias!
All the whining and complaining about the "lack of color" at the Oscars epitomizes the darkness and vacuity of modern liberalism.
For liberals, the glass is always half empty. Despite numerous black actors, directors, and filmmakers making tons of money, they're never satisfied. Many white liberals are joining their black brethren in protesting this awful "injustice" of some people with dark skin not getting a hunk of shiny metal.
Meanwhile, many of those protesters live lives better than the kings and queens of old. But because one year some people who resembled them aren't going to get a hunk of shiny metal, the U.S. is just a nasty, racist hellhole.
I think all liberals should be given a mental examination. I don't know if they can be helped, but maybe some could be locked away before they can do more damage.
Yes to make them even more irrelevant than they are. Add a Participation category. Everyone who had anything to do with a movie gets a statue. That includes the concession stand and box office employees.
They already have the quotas! The Hollywood Cesspool is what it is. Every kind of freak that can be thought of.
A better question...
Does America need Oscars?
For the next 10 years, only Asians should win.
Yes , then maybe a good movie can get one
To make up for the injustice and inequality of the past decades, all nominees going forward should be black and or “transgendered”. And only blacks should be in movies. All Hollywood progressives should be onboard.
Just have a Black Oscars and Latino Oscars, problem solved.
Does Tyler Perry care about that the Academy thinks of his movies?
