i knew there was a reason i had you on ignore
what "dumb conspiracies"? be specific.
My father told me to turn that baffoon shyt off once
Naw cause the black men in dresses thing wasn't a major talking point until the 00's. I think it was the Chappelle Operah interview that really popped it off.
After that everyone started thinking back on movies like Wesley in that drag queen movie, Jamie as Wanda, Shenaenae etc. and was like
"they really do be putting black men in dresses".

Martin got a free past in the first 2 seasons of that show and could basically do whatever he wanted. Crazy that he turned out to be the biggest thing (in a major way) from the House Party era considering he was a minor character.
By the second season of Marin he was headlining his own movies because he had next. But for reasons we all know, he fumbled that shĆt but still managed to recover and get his career back on track.

True, but in smaller circles it was already talked about.

A lot of people say Jerome or Shenaenae was the best characters Martin played on the show but I say itās Ol Otis. Martin stayed getting his ass whooped by Ms Jerry(RIP) but her and Otis was in Love

Nah. But the general public wasn't really hip to what the ramifications were of that type of imagery.
I was in college back then and never tripped off of the Shenaenae character. I was never a huge fan of men playing women, but I never was fake outraged over it either. It was just a part of Martin's many characters.

Disagree.
And I think people have just run with and repeated this. Comedians have been doing drag as a cheap sight gag for decades.
Comics (and actors) trying to make it will generally do near anything directors/producers say to land or keep a part in a project to boost their careers.
White, Latin, Asian actors have been given drag roles/had drag suggested to "spice up" a role. If you go through your head, you'll remember all the ones who did it for skits, tv and film roles, etc
Tom Hank's,Robin Williams, the Church Lady on SNL, Adam Sandler, Chris Farley,etc and near every tier below them.
These white comics doing drag gets forgotten when this "Hollywood wants Black men in dresses" line comes up.
I respect anybody who goes into entertainment and sticks to their guns about what they won't do on camera. But I definitely don't buy that "oh, last generation didn't know what was happening""Chappelle lifted the lid off of the conspiracy" line here.
