I can’t imagine that people who are triggered by seeing non white actors will be too interested in watching Dickens.

They’re not triggered, they just know bullshit when they see it.

It has less to do with the color of an actor in a movie that causes this angst among people than it has with the process of injecting race or sex roles into movies where the component didn’t exist in the original, and doing so for woke reasons.

Think making James Bond a black man or homosexual, or Ghostbusters all women.

I am sure there are people who are triggered by seeing “people of color” or women in movies, but those people are pretty rare.

Most people don’t get “triggered” by seeing Denzel Washington in a movie about an airline pilot, but they do get “triggered” seeing a play about Alexander Hamilton that features historically white persons as black persons.

Triggered - what a joke. I guess cultural appropriation only works one way. Hypocrite.
