I never said it couldn't win because it is a black cast! It's because Hollywood is political and they usually pick the winners based on the message not the talent. It could be a great movie but that isn't why it won. I have no problems and would quite enjoy a good movie about race, sexuality, or other topics but when I know it's Hollywood trying to put it out there for political reasons....it lessens the enjoyment of it.

You don't know that. I actually am not surprised at all that it won. I actually found it to be VERY similar in a lot of ways to "Boyhood" ... a style of movie making that I don't really get, but the Academy seems to really love.
But you wouldn't know because you haven't actually seen it, right? Probably haven't seen "Boyhood" either.
Not everything is a publicity stunt, sometimes things just go wrong. There are better ways to generate publicity than to deliberately make yourselves look like completely incompetent imbeciles.

So you haven't seen the movie, you opine that it could be a great movie, however being a great movie isn't why it won. Like I said, speaks more about you than anything else.
