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.

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.'

Welcome to corporate America 20 years ago.
Forty years.
Total meltdown? We can only hope
Awww how sad. Being eaten by your own. How does it feel?
If you newly un-woke idiots had any brains, you would realize you are the industry. Hollywood has no real ideas. Then again, maybe you are the reason for that? Learn coding and work on your tan.
While you are correct, the term ‘reverse racism’ immediately describes who is being discriminated against.
I’m not aware of any other phrase that can do that as succinctly.
Whhaaaaahhhh. Call a counselor, Karens!
The arts run to a large extent on grant money. In a Trump administration those grants will be fewer than in a Biden administration. That might be part of the rationale here. Kick them to the curb when they wont be able to get back up. Truthfully, they will be even worse off in a Biden administration because if Biden is elected, Nancy Pelosi will once again be talking about a mandate to shift hard Left.
Im not sure why Hollywood is still a thing, and why movie studios arent more distributed in other states. At the very least, that is an industry that is in desperate need of disruption, since hubris has set in to such an extent.
It will be interesting. Id love to see a bit more geographic diversity as well as more diversity of thought. Im not going to pretend to miss Shrek 3 Arthur Pendragon type heroes. I wont. But Hollywood has more than had their day. Let them pack up and move to China already, start over. If they are kicking all these guys out, theres a good knowledge base right there to get things started, with plenty of new blood of course.
From what I’ve seen on TV and the movies and in commercials, you’d think that blacks comprise 30-50% of the population, whereas, the real percentage of the black population is about 12-13%
So, the reverse discrimination had been occurring for at least the last 10 years.
What we’ve had is affirmative action on steroids.
I don’t really care what happens to the virtue-signalling gaggle of actors, regardless of their skin color or gender.
“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.”
My sympathy tank is on empty. These low IQ, self righteous, pompous asses deserve that and more.
Ricky Gervais had them pegged right - they know nothing about the real world.
On tv, marriages are predominantly gay, biracial, or both.
Boo freaking hoo. Hollywood signed their death warrant.
“White fragility” is a racist term. Kind of like “black hypersensitivity” would be also a racist term.
Attributing a characteristic to a group of people based on race is racist.
Karma is a bitch!
Hollywood’s identity crisis: Actors, writers and producers warn of ‘reverse racism’ in the film industry...
And were promptly accused of being racist
Troops of colon commandos...
And if there IS a straight white male, he's either the dumb doofus using the wrong product (and has to be corrected by a female or a minority,) or else he's a burglar breaking into the beautiful suburban home of a gorgeous black couple in the home security ads.

The media moguls have been having their puppets dancing to their anti-white racism for years. Now those same puppets are seeing their jobs evaporating.
