Well, when you're going to pretend that something is okay going one direction but not the other in regards to unchanging aspects of a person's being such as race or gender, that's prejudice. I refuse to find common ground that actively gives advantage to someone concerning traits they can't control.
People were upset that she was black. There's always backlash when that happens, but media doesn't cover it unless they can pin a specific person as racist or bigoted. I was personally pissed off about it originally. But now that the movie has proven itself, most have forgotten about it (except left-leaning establishments who want to constantly remind you how diverse something is). |
I mean, obviously if we disagree then I think you're wrong as well, but I'm not cheekily saying so to make the last word be a snide remark while also agreeing to end it there. I sure hope you dont think I was conceding to any of your points by saying what I said, because it was just that I know that we wont convince each other and so going much further is a waste of time. I still think (know) Im right though. I hope you're enjoying your break.
People were upset, but now that the movie is good nobody cares, because the quality of the movie is much more influential than the changes an adaptation makes, yes. That's my point. Good on those left leaning sites though.
