Hollywood's identity crisis: Actors, writers and producers warn of 'reverse racism' in the film industry which has created a 'toxic' climate for anyone who is a white, middle-age man
Daily Mail ^ | July 11, 2020 | Caroline Graham

A revolution is under way. White actors are being fired. Edicts from studio bosses make it clear that only minorities – racial and sexual – can be given jobs.

A new wave of what has been termed by some as anti-white prejudice is causing writers, directors and producers to fear they will never work again. One described the current atmosphere as 'more toxic than Chernobyl', with leading actors afraid to speak out amid concern they will be labelled racist.

[snip]

speaking on condition of anonymity, the executive confirmed that the climate is now toxic for any 'white, middle-aged man in showbusiness'. Their careers, 'are pretty much over'.

They continued: 'We're only hiring people of colour, women or LGBT to write, star, produce, operate the cameras, work in craft services. If you are white, you can't speak out because you will instantly be branded 'racist' or condemned for 'white privilege'.

'The pendulum has swung so far, everyone is paralysed with fear by the idea anything you say could be misinterpreted and your career ended instantly. There are a lot of hushed conversations going on, but publicly everyone is desperate to be seen to be promoting diversity and too terrified to speak out. It's imploding: a total meltdown.'

Good, good. Its entire business is a cesspool and should be going bankrupt as it ignores more and more people tuning out how woke media has no substance to it.

White Hollywood leftists suddenly care about anti-white racism now that it's affecting them.

Makes me want to go down there and shame them for their bigotry, the hypocrites.

Basically they will be giving up a big part of their market by blacklisting straight white actors. White males generally only go to flicks that are populated with white males, not chick flicks or the latest moronic Spike Lee movie or touchy feely gay stuff. The height of this insanity was when they were talking about making a black woman the protagonist in a Bond movie. That stupidity did not last long.

Right. Maybe they should all screw each other’s partners. That should help.

All joking aside, Covid has weaned me of sports broadcasting and going to the movies. I am becoming accustomed to simply porch sitting and watching humanity shuffle past.

“Edicts from studio bosses”

“Studio bosses” - only “white” when they wanna be.

There is no more entertainment being made. It’s all political appeasement aimed at the abreaved minority dejuour.

Seeing early proof of this in commercials. Lots of mixed race couples, homosexuals, etc.

Not to worry since the film industry is practically dead; who goes to watch remakes of popular films using LGBT/black/Trans actors?

What has been happening these several years are the communists baring their fangs. This is a full on war against the American people. The communists have come out from the underground. They believe it is their time. The sixties was a burst of leftist attacks, now the grand children of the leftists are in charge.

The weak stupid democrats, the wannabe communists have spent fifty years empowering the communists now they are learning that the communists play for keeps.
