Hollywood Cuts DEI Execs Following Affirmative Action Ruling
TheSource ^ | 7/2/23 | CortneyB

Last week the U.S. Supreme Court stuck down Affirmative Action in higher education when they reversed affirmative action after 62 years. The Supreme set new limits on affirmative action programs in cases involving whether public and private colleges and universities can continue to use race as one factor among many in student admissions. After decades of fighting for diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in films and television, both behind and in front of the camera, Hollywood is flipping the script.

In similar but unrelated news, four Diversity, Equity and Inclusion officers in Hollywood were fired the very next day

We don’t need affirmative action anymore. The San Francisco morons are going to make anybody with black skin into a millionaire. They won’t need to go to college or get a job.

In five years it will all be gone, and the same 10% will have 60% of the property.

If you could not manage your money before, giving you 1.2 million just means you live high for a couple of years while you blow through it.

I see the “reparations” thing becoming a huge disaster with a lot of homicides, thievery and every other crime going on. The Africans think the black on black homicide rate is high now, wait until they’re stealing five million dollars from each other instead of Nikes.

I disagree. SCOTUS says using race for college admissions is 100% illegal, so it stands to reason that considering race for hiring, including in hiring of actors for movies, is also illegal.

If they ever pay reparations- white and yellow businesses will have most of that money inside of a year.

DEI should be fired for a myriad of reasons.
Number one being that do not bring ANY economic value to whatever enterprise uses it!
Costs a ton of money, yet brings in NOTHING!
The only thing it brings in is resentment!!!

I’ll believe it when I see Sitcoms and TV commercials with all white families again, which have been absent for the last 5 - 10 years.

These people pushing the woke BS have cost their companies millions

If Hollywood execs had their choice, they'd make nothing but Top Gun 2 mega-blockbusters.

They're not stupid. They know what sells. And they know what doesn't sell.

If it’s true, there should be nothing to complain about: They were legally hired because of the color of their skin, so they can be legally fired because of the color of their skin. This would fall under the heading: “social justice.”

Does this mean white people might be allowed to do commercials again by the Hollyweird racists?

Things are happening in the background?

The backlash has been building for some time. The emperor has no clothes, and everyone knows it. The lie is sustained by raw intimidation, and once the dam breaks, things can move fast. The threat of the feds lowering a regulatory hammer has been an important trump card for the scammers, but the Supremes have put a hole beneath the waterline on that. The war ain't over, but the battlefield has shifted majorly.

Dylan Mulvaney helped. Once ridicule is normalized, the lie can't be long sustained.

Maybe the shows will improve.

I recently watched a show called Merlin which is streaming on the interwebs.

I watched it until I discovered that, according to this show, King Arthur's
kingdom had a sizable Negro population including Arthur's future wife
Princess Guinevere, as a Negress.

*CLICK* — the sound of me instantly changing the channel.
