By Peter Lloyd for MailOnline The trailer for a controversial new Netflix programme has sparked a fierce race row - losing the entertainment company numerous customers in the process.
More than 250,000 'dislikes' were registered for the Dear White People preview on Friday, just 24 hours after it was officially uploaded to YouTube.
But the true scale of the discontent could be much higher after claims the online broadcaster deleted both a million views and 100,000 accompanying negative comments. Race-baiting? The new Netflix series has caused an understandable commotion online +7

The 30-second clip opens with a collection of Caucasian stereotypes and the show's African American protagonist, Samantha, hectoring students at the fictional Winchester University.
'Dear white people,' she says. 'Heres a list of acceptable Halloween costumes: pirate, slutty nurse, any of our first 43 presidents. Top of the list of unacceptable costumes: me.'
It then shows a number of college students sporting so-called 'black face' and the violent responses that follow.
The preview comes ahead of the series premiere on April 24.

Netflix is making it hard to support them. I like a lot of the programing but this is a bad idea.

Cancelled Netflix years ago when they started putting homo promo videos online. I know it’s business but the lifestyle,is revolting and if they want to cater to 2 + % of the population and gross out the other 97 % that’s their business but it does say something about the owner (Reed Hastings who lives in San Francisco; need I say anymore; once you see his mugshot you’ll know):

I go to ClassicFlix for old, old movies.
For more common and newer movies, is there an alternative to Netflix?
DVD’s, not streaming.
Hmmmmm. Blackface, offensive? Why, yes.
So, tell me, why Bruce Jenner is allowed to be glorified in our magazines and culture for the children, exactly like the old-time movies’ and magazines’ portrayal and glorification of white people in Blackface?
Doesn’t Jenner promote a Lie—and mock white males, even white women? Isn’t his even worse because he mocks God and God’s Design of the male and he promotes a Lie— pretending that he is something that he can’t ever be? (Science proves that but there have been whites with black blood).
Isn’t Brucie forcing insanity onto our children and vile concepts and lies to little boys-—worse than the whites wearing Blackface? His actions promote the mutilation and drugging of the body which far exceeds a white wearing Blackface which doesn’t include drugging and mutilation.
BTW, it is always wrong to promote lies and evil in a “Justice” system based on Truth (God) and Natural Law (science/Reason) like the US Constitution and “Justice” system.
I want my country back from the leftists who are trying to destroy it. That makes it easy to not support Netflix.

DVD’s for most every movie ever made since the 1940’s are available for as little as a buck plus shipping ($4.00) on Amazon. Even new releases can be had for not much more if you can wait a month or 2.
How wonderful too see people FINALLY standing up for their beliefs and having the courage to voice their outrage!
I credit the new President for showing people they should not any longer be afraid to exercise their God given right to free speech.
A new day in America. Indeed!
They also have series (I'm currently hooked on "House of Cards") and older movies.
Oh yes, they also have old music so you don't have to buy that Led Zeppelin album on the third medium.
yeah, enough of this marxist sh&$
Amazon Prime.
How many, actually?
Netflix is continuing the race war started by Obama.
I’ve been hearing about this on you tube from various commenters.
Good thing I don’t subscribe to Netflix. Then, I’d have to cancel them.
Just to round out the discussion, also boycotting Target, Belk, Starbucks, Macy’s and Nordstroms
People don’t realize that voting dislike contributes to the score just as much as hitting like.
it’s the same when calling radio stations if you complain about a host, you’re actually helping the host because you’re showing that you were listening or you got mad and continue to listen.
simply cancel your Netflix subscription and leave a note saying why.
don’t ever dislike a video, you’re helping that video it indicates audience engagement.
Been using Netflix for a few years now & see no reason to stop. This program is being decimated by low ratings & terrible reviews.
We deal with this kind of nonsense by not watching the offensive programs.
I am a real lover of music from the 1940’s thru most of the 1970’s and have a collection of well over 14,000 tracks.
There is a download site (out of Russia) which at last check had a selection list into the MILLIONS track wise and they charge 16 cents per track. Downloads are mp3 and at a bitrate of 360.
If you can name an artist, they will have it there.
If interested freepmail me.
