Bill Maher Goes In On "Woke" Casting In Hollywood

[datnigDASTARDLY]

I’m tired of these CAC saying “woke” all the fukking time. They don’t even realize what it really mean. Or what it originally meant. If they did, they wouldn’t use it.

Yeah “woke” has lost all meaning when the alt right took it.

I’m like…that’s not the “woke” I remember

But why fascination?
Are you fascinated with every thread or post you make on TLR?

Dude listen, to me the Bill Maher show largely brings establishment elites or rich partisan people on his show
I disagree with most of the content on his show, but I do like the format though.
I like the table format and people debating politics without talking over each other and only have one minute to respond.
And also i've laughed many times from his new rules and other comedic skits on the show, that ASMR one was hilarious.
So it brings people finishing their sentence on political talks and with comedy mixed it, I like that, that's why I watch it,

If I could summarize the topics he has on all his show into one sentence it would be "This is what democrats need to do to win".
Something definately I am not a fan of, because it's 'how can they win' and not 'this is the right path to take'.

But despite that, I do not mind watching things I disagree with, i'm not an intellectual p*ssy. I do not require to only watch things that are of the same mind as me.

Complaining about someone complaining…wow.


All these motherfukkers are the same, they just don’t realize

And in terms of entertainment any movie where a female plays a role that is traditionally given to a male is called wokeness.

The movie Prey was woke because the lead character was a female. If Shuri becomes the new black Panther even though she’s next in line, it’s woke. Marvel is woke because of the addition of strong female characters. shyt is corny.



Hollywood studios only care about making money. Depending on the movie, they’re going to cast actors that are going to get people to watch. Franco has a fan base. And this whole racial shyt is really about black and Asian characters. Can’t nobody tell the difference between a Mexican and a Colombian. A Cuban or a Puerto Rican. It is what it is.

The term woke has been skewed. I hate that white people adopted it, because now it's a catchall for anything "inclusive" without any context given to the circumstances.

 

[EBK String]

I hate having to agree with this piece of shyt.

i wish they got tazed every time they said it
they took our shyt and mutated it into some politically charged nonsense

 

[Mr Hate Coffee]

He was mostly right but Hollywood casting white people for historically Black characters is done intentionally to whitewash history. How the hell you have a movie about ancient Egyptians and not have Black people casted at all?

I think we all agree on that. But his rant was speaking to how ridiculous it’s gotten.

They do this with everything we come up with and go into overdrive when we moved on from the term we create.

Precisely my point. And Hamilton was a play. It wasn’t a movie so he lost points in that.

 

[fact]

The right in this country have gaslit everyone into completely turning the ideology and meaning of the term “woke” into negativity. Same with SJW, there is zero negativity in the actual act of fighting for social Justice, but because conservatives and ignorant morons in this country amplify messages and appearances of a small percentage of naive, mentally I’ll people they have completely convinced most people of something that is not true.

 

[fact]

Bill Maher is corporate democrat/neoliberal trash porn.

 

[King Poetic]

He’s right
