I really don't care too much for these race based movies. They usually end up demonizing white people.

Well I can tell you if I went to Vietnam or Korea I wouldn't see a bunch of white people there. Xenophobia is a normal human/animal trait. He can brainwash someone else with his one world vision.

Any society with racial diversity will have racial issues. That's because each of the races have unique aspects about their abilities, appearance, beliefs, etc. They can of course vary but there is always more common traits in each race. The higher ups try to deny this because inevitable more negative traits will be called out on. They'll never have an answer for the positive traits though. Jews are more intelligent than any other race and any study will show that. It will always show that. There could be 100 Jews in the world and they'd still win Nobel prizes in science. Now if I say Jews are greedy and masters of usury I'll be called a bigot. Acknowledge that they have higher intellect and I'll just be ignored.

I also laugh at his celebratory film of the terrorist Nelson Mandela. Of course he wouldn't make a movie about how black South Africans kill white South African farmers in the South Africa Mandela help build. He also wouldn't dare speak of Mandela singing songs about killing white people (which you can easily find on youtube) since he's a coward and your typical Hollywood phony. No, instead he makes a movie with the uber liberal Matt Damon praising the great black people who only suffer and never are in the wrong themselves.

I like Letters from Iwo Jima but then again, as he apparently is, I'm a big fan of Japanese people and not just the present ones. Plenty of heroes on their side in WW2.

What the hell are you talking about?

I was under the impression it was a comedy.

Some funny moments, but definitely not a comedy. Basically, its about an old bigoted Korean war vet who grudgingly befriends a Hmong (from Vietnam or Laos I think) family that lives next door to him and assist them in a struggle with a street gang.

    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
    • It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
