The diversity pimps are whining, but they ought to get a clue that when people vote, they have a choice. Government loves to pick and choose winners, and the various interest groups, be they racial lobbys, gay lobbys, women lobbys or other lobbys, do influence government and game the system.
For example, Ivy League universities have rolled over and decided that they DO NOT want to attract only the best and the brightest, but instead will carve out a special accommodation for the less bright and the less accomplished, unless they are white or Asian, in which case those applicants can take a seat behind those who are substantially below the standard. The net result is a lowering of the overall performance of the University. Forgive me for being so selfish, but I really would prefer that my doctor be the best prepared and the brightest, not a recipient of academic charity due to his or her ethnicity.
Some groups actually think they are entitled to special benefits because of their ethnicity, or their gender, or their sexual orientation, and government has frequently acquiesced and discriminated against the best to accommodate these interest groups. On the other hand, in areas such as professional sports, it is quite common to see a professional basketball team or football team that consists of 75% African Americans, and no one is crying “discrimination” or “unfair,” even if the overall U.S. population is only 12% black.
The assumption is that the players earned their right to be a part of the team, and so that team makeup is accepted and no one demands that a less talented player displace a more talented one because there are not “enough” white players on the team.
Academy Awards discrimination, page 2:
I think the problem is the black community thinks they should dominate the oscars every year they put out another movie about slavery . Every damn year .
It also seems to me the rest of America is getting sick and tired of having racism and slavery shoved down our throats .
I don’t think the movie industry is list on the,EEO At least I think not. You have to have talent to get nominated for,a,10dollar,trophy.
I hope they all outrage themselves out of their ridiculous jobs.
How about BET….
QUIT WITH THE RACIST REMARKS ABOUT THE OSCARS IF YOU WANT IT THEN WORK FOR IT ,END OF STOREY !!!!!!
So you didn’t win was it perhaps you did not qualify? Typical black mentality, don’t get your own way cry racism. Why are there black TV shows, black award shows, black magazines what would you say if white people called racism because we are not on those shows.
Eat$#%&!@* you little racist p***k
Does anyone remember why the Oscar was created ??? —- The TV was invented and the film industry needed a gimmick to get people back into the theaters.
Will there be radical changes to the “black only awards”? You know the ones that no white folks are even invited to.
stop caring about the oscars. Problem solved.
