I stopped watching all that crap many years ago. I'm all for innocent and playful political jokes on both sides, but once that crowd started getting into the crap they are into now, I tuned them out. Then when it came to light they are mostly all pedophiles, I swore never to give them the time of day again.

So how do you determine who is the most qualified?

I don't think I've every watched the Oscars and couldn't tell you a single movie that won one. I just look at rotten tomatoes. If a large number of real people (not "critics") like the move then I'll watch it.

Every movie doesnt have to have a black person or a person of color in it. Youre being silly.

I'm so glad I have all my favorite movies on 4K Blu Ray. I can watch great movies that aren't socially engineered and no one can take them away from me. I guarantee you this will be coming not too far down the road. Previous movies that don't fit the narrative will suddenly vanish from streaming platforms. Best to have a hardcopy of what you enjoy most.

If you find out that some of your favorite movies have a diverse cast or crew then will throw away those blu rays?

90 % of movies already meet this criteria.

The point is the system is pushing an agenda. The elite, the oligarchs that liberals always complain about are pushing an agenda. We are trying to make a point. Yes liberals, you are right, very rich people of a certain gender and race are trying to make us think a certain way. This is an example.

It is like,
liberals: Corporations are bad, they are evil
conservatives: yes, the global tech and media companies have an agenda and are working in sync against the public
liberals: stop whining they are private companies

We are on the same page.
You can get whiplash trying to follow the Democrats and the left.

They call Trump a fascist and a dictator, them demand that he tell states when to open or close due to COVID, and blame trump for not overriding state authority and stop the riots.

They call Trump a war monger, then chastise him for trying to pull out of Afghanistan.

They scream #MeToo against anyone who ever looked twice at a woman, then applaud Harris when she's praising the rapist Blake, and endorsing the creepy hair sniffer, girl groper for president

They chastise the religious sector for trying to push their social agenda onto the nation, then they will demand the movie industry force social agendas on the nation.
