Basically he's saying if you like the classic movies and think they are better than today's movies, it means you are racist since you are rejecting the forced diversity of Hollywood today.

My mother’s favorite movie was Gone With the Wind. What do they think about my mother?

[Islander7]

The only ones who hear dog whistles are dogs and democrats.

[Vendome]

[cranked]

OMFG, sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sick and tired of the frakin’ racism, racist, etc. rhetoric.

[mass55th]

What was so bad about “40 acres and a mule”?

[Jolla]

Yo Chang, do you mean like when he said he thought Parasite, the Asian film was the best foreign movie?

[wardaddy]

Except for the outcome I like GWTW too

Especially when

Scarlett gets ravished

When Rhett tells her to drop dead

Perfection

Worst scene beside anyhwere Sherman has a cameo

Bonnie gets her neck broke

[Rockingham]

I guess the American Film Institute must also be racist for listing GWTW as number 4 on its list of the 100 best movies.

[Cowboy Bob]

Some people will say anything just to get attention.

[\/\/ayne]

No, it’s an idiot whistle. It makes idiots react.

[Widget Jr]

“Racist dog whistle” is the left’s dog whistles to attack a person for making a innocuous statement. It is Orwell's Two Minutes Hate in real life.

[Oshkalaboomboom]

Didn’t GWTW produce the first black Academy Award winner, Hattie McDaniel?

[basalt]

in terms of cinema, and the year it was made, GWTW is truly a stunning achievement. There were like only 5 color cameras in existence at the time, and Selznick had all of em. Some of the scenes are just so beautifully shot...the color amazing. These insufferable bast$%^$ just hate this countries history...they know that every great achievement that put this country so far ahead of every other in the world in such a short period of time, was done when white males were running and inventing everything....just the way it was...deal with it.

[Fresh Wind]

I think I’ll watch a Charlie Chan movie later.

[Drango]

Enough already.

Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty.

[Kirkwood]

Only in LA can you be a racist film critic and know absolutely nothing about film.

[Unam Sanctam]

Rarely has Hollywood produced anything I’m interested in seeing for the past 30 years or so. I guess that makes one racist...

[ronnie raygun]

Book burning is around the corner.
