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:
Lets just do away with them all together and donate all that money to take care of our veterans,
When ALL whites are eligible for BET awards
Ned to step up your acting son
Should Asians boycott too??? Black assholes just shut up you did’t deserve it this round!
So all you that are boycotting the Oscars because they are too “white” are you saying you want to go back to choosing according to the color of a persons skin & not the merit or character of the movie? This is going backwards people when will you ALL stop judging anything by the color of a persons skin!!
Lets require sports to be segrated accordingly to population.
This Crapola Just shows the world just how divided and wrong America has become!
Should White, Hispanic and Asians boycott the NFL or NBA because there are too many black players. Of Course Not! Hollywood filled with left wing racists.
SHAMEFUL that black millionaires stir the RACE CARD POT OF HATRED, while living in gated, guarded white communities in million dollar homes; race baiters like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Oprah, Eric Holder, Rangle, and Obama.
People of color should be ashamed of how they are being used.
I Won’t be spending any of my monies on any thing the Will Smiths are in! Or any monies on any of the other racists that live in Hollywood and stir up the HATE POTS!
The Oscars Haven’t Been Worth a Tinkers Damn for Years Now! They are the stage for left wing agendas and What Hollywood THINKS are stars!
I Only Watched When They Had Real First Class Movie Stars — and MC’s like Mr. Bob Hope!!!
The Oscars use to be FIRST CLASS and made all who watched the elegant Stars want to be Movie Stars too! NOT happening nowadays for sure!
You best change BET then!!!!!
Ha ha ha you see what happens when you bend over for these thugs. Give them a hand. They will take your arm.
NO. THE WORLD DOESN,T REVOLVE AROUND YOUR COLOR OR ACTING ABILITIES. GET OVER YOURSELF.
