I think we should ask Hillary if she supports David Duke every time she gets interviewed.
You know for fair and balance.

Considering we had a black panther party during the superbowl half-time this year, your argument is moot.
Seriously though, Hillary barks like a dog and you say Trump is acting like a child.. smh

Did the Superbowl scare you? Beyonce dancing and making such a subtle statement that if you blinked you missed it?
Black Panther Party. If you weren't told what the statement was, I doubt you'd have associated it.

I would have boycotted the Oscars with you. But I didn't care before I knew everyone was going to be white.

You know it's silly when white people have to get in arms about the indisputable fact that no Hispanics, Asians, Blacks or anyone else for that matter win ***at these masturbatory functions. Chill guys, everything can't be about you all the time.
It's not even a jab about being white moreso that it's ridiculous that in this day and age it's still the same cadre winning accolades. To the point where white actors are being passed off as Asian or we get excuses that Middle Eastern actors can't get a shot because name recognition.
TV is light years ahead of film in terms of trying to get some new faces a chance to shine. And even then most people would struggle to name 5 Latino actors.
The fact that so many people get uncomfortable about that reality is why the reactionary 'white is under attack!' comes off as so disingenuous.

Uncomfortable trying to watch the Oscars was uncomfortable !

Watching awards shows is universally boring. You're better off watching the films and seeing if you enjoy them yourself.
Mad Max: Fury Road was great. People who thought Star Wars should have won anything clearly are delusional fanboys.

I watch practically every sci-fi, and action movie and I would struggle naming 5 white actors.
As for every TV show nowadays, every single one seems to have the token black guy, token gay couple, token interracial couple, and everything in-between.
By fonewear 2016-03-01 12:19:31
What about the token gay black man that happens to be transgender !
I believe it's called the trifecta !

I tall you what I care about:

The common thread that ties us all together here is that we still care about a dead MMO that could be compared to a Vietnamese POW camp where lives were traded for Ridills, a shrewd producer ignored everything we told him the camp needed and yet somehow here we are talking about politics and religion.
I should be collecting PTSD disability or something.

I'm sorry but the rebutall against Trump's pandering to racist extremists is that Beyonce danced threateningly. That's just *** hilarious.

Beasts of no Nation > any other movie in 2015.
The kid who played Agu has more talent than all Oscar winners combined.
How is that everyone marveled at Mcully Culkin in Home Alone, the kid who played the AI in AI, but no one makes mention of this genius kid?

I didn't see any Oscar movie. I boycotted all of them cause Kevin Hart wasn't nominated for an Oscar.

YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE BEYONCE. It was said you would destroy racism with your hips, not join them. You were to bring balance to the force, not leave it in rhythmic ruin!

That movie was physically difficult for me to watch through man. It was brilliant and the fact that Netflix snapped it up was a genius bit on their part.

You mean rebuttal... The hilarious part is you people thinking Trump cares about the KKK voting for him. When this whole thing is just meant to degrade his candidacy. The moment it was brought up he disavowed it but reporters just keep asking about it so low information voters get saturated with Trump being supported by the KKK.
