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.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
