Non-woke Movies

[neverevergiveup]

I apologize for the Vanity upfront. That said, can we come up with a list of movies that don't lecture about climate, race, abortion 'rights', sexuality, intolerance, 'migrants' etc.? I fully realize there are lots of crucial issues facing all of us and that this is not that important, but when occasionally looking for at least an hour or two of escape it would be nice to not have to be assaulted by the left's agenda.

Now you have really piqued my interest!

Good luck finding one new

Negroid raced Valerians

[wardaddy]

I disagree my friend

The book by a liberal writer took mountain red necks likely the least prone homosexual demographic this side of the aryan brotherhood and made them the stereotypical fudge packer racists demographic for eternity

[shotgun]

The Three Godfathers

[Chickensoup]

Bttt

TKAMB is actually quite pc

A forerunner of who to stereotype

The white messiah in Atticus

Etc

Nazi galore

“Deliverance” is a hate crime against north Georgia hill folk. It’s a nice work of fiction (both the book and the movie).

“Some Like It Hot, Blazing Saddles, Secretariat”

If you reversed the list on that I would agree.

For Monroe prefer 7 Year Itch.
Some don’t like it but the Secretariat Movie with Dianne Lane is very good.

‘ I found Turn racially PC’

————————-

Yes it was but the bigger picture was very entertaining. They took many liberties with the truth on many characters but did not with the core facts. Culpepper was a lawyer, not a farmer. His father was dead. He did not have an affair nor was he married. But the spy ring itself and the surrounding circumstances was great.

I can sometimes get beyond that

I’ve mustered through house of dragons stupid black valerians but that’s what they want

Us to just accept the brainwashing to diminish anything white or Christian

Commercials were first a generation ago now

Many couples always black man white woman

Now it’s just everything mixed with whites a distinct minority

And Hulu commercials are largely homosexual couples

My favorite is now the preponderance of black nuclear families in commercials

The white dad is always shown stupid

The white guy in a mixed commercial same but not the whites woman

I brought this up and complained here in 2000 and was smeared as racist and oh wardaddy they just want to expand markets

Bullshit it’s social engineering by lefties at ad agencies and show runners

I’ve seen gatekeepers at HBO and Starz profess they wanted more gay characters and people of color regardless authenticity

Imagine a white man as a Zulu in an African epic

Or a falasha Anne Frank?

Man would they howl

Man would folks howl

It’s simply power and fat and happy accept it

Including me to a degree

I mostly agree with you, but one problem, especially with commercials, is the small cast. Movies usually have larger casts, but the typical flick has one or two leads and 3-5 major supporting characters. The small world problem exists there as well. I’ll stick with the commercials for the moment. I agree with you that the composition of many commercials today sticks out like a sore thumb. BUT ....

Some advertising is highly targeted, but suppose I am pitching a generic American product to a generic American audience. I want characters with whom all demographics can identify. That’s just good marketing, and it would still be good marketing if we could take all the race hustlers and lock them away.

So how do I do that if I have four people in the commercial in a country that is 60 percent non-hispanic white, 18 percent hispanic (which can be of any race), 13 percent black, and 6 percent Asian, (and 73 percent white if we count white hispanics)?

And that’s not including the scattering of other folks who should get a nod from time to time. Nor does it yet consider the gender balance, or the presence of children, who will almost always be linked to adult character(s).

In a four person commercial, the math demands that a lot of marriages will be mixed, every white guy is going to have a black, hispanic or asian buddy, and mixed race actors who can punch two buttons hold the trump cards. Two white characters out of four underrepresents the white population, but a single black, hispanic or asian character overrepresents those groups.

The only way to solve this problem if one really wanted to be strict about quotas would be to have at least nine or ten people in the commercial.

A two person commercial? Better jump out the window before the race hustlers skin you alive, or live with massive overrepresentation of mixed marriages.

The racial hysteria is a problem. The infestation of wokesters in the executive suites is a problem. But the math also creates an inevitable small world problem that has to be factored into the discussion.

What’s your age

It’s not a criticism

I agree small cast is an issue

But I grew up pre ad cast machinations although I suppose the nuclear family perspective came through

And we had black and gay characters

Selling stuff

Paul Lynde
Charles Nelson Reilly

Blacks were often celebs like OJ or Cosby which is wierd looking back isn’t it

Race got in there but not serving a social purpose like now

And fathers were not bashed at all hardly

Women were more feminine and emotional and loving maternal which from my old perspective is not inaccurate even now

I agree. Check your freepmail.
