Idk maybe the sheer number of racial slurs said by white characters. I don't think that would fly in today's political landscape.
Have you seen any of Quinton Tarantino's films?
Yes. Have you seen the kind of stuff movies get boycotted for?
Truthfully, I don't watch many movies or keep up with Hollywood. I feel like the art of filmmaking died with the invention of CGI. Deadpool kept me in stitches tho. I finally watched it last month. I know white people got all upset about a black Ariel but gave no notice that it was otherwise a bad screenshot of the cartoon. What other bullshit are folks getting all boycotty over?
You don't think that openly mocking white people who use racial slurs would fly? How so?
I just think it would be idiotically cancelled for even having that kind of behavior in it in the first place.
Why do you think that would happen? Can you give me some examples of media making fun of racists and getting "canceled" as a result?
