What a meaningless & arbitrary idea.


It’s absolutely not meaningless or arbitrary. It means “non-white”.

That's on you. You shouldn't need me or Google to explain to you that the country that makes up the largest percentage of Asia has people of Asian heritage residing in it.


That isn't and never was the point. Look at the fricking cast list I linked you retard.

We've gone from ethnically Asian to geographically Asian to well some people in Russia are ethnically Asian so it doesn't matter about the specific people in the movie.

I'm trying to detail it in crayon so you can see how retarded you sound. You went from listing this specific movie to now planting your flag in the fact that there are some people in Russia that are ethnically Asian. So that qualifies this specific movie as ethnically Asian.


You're a retard and clinging to some % of a % so that you don't have to say the words "I was wrong". Sad.

That movie was released in 2021, meaning it was shot maybe in 2019 or 2020. Inclusion standards were implemented in 2022.

They are not. You can be ethnically Asian and never live on Asian soil. You can live on Asian soil and never be ethnically Asian.

I'm pretty sure that you know this, but this all stems from the fact that you don't want to say you are wrong.

Of course you can. But the fact that you have Asians in close proximity to interbreed with the Slavic Russians for hundreds of years still makes them intertwined.

I can't figure out if you're trolling, disingenuous, or autistic.

He is just derailing a thread about racist practices that he supports.

Pretty much it.

He isn’t trolling. He just wants to defend Disney so bad
See, there’s never ever a point at which lefties say “ok, this is dumb”. They never reach that point.

Where have I defended Disney? All I've pointed out is ways to subvert these guidelines. Explaining ways to subvert them implies I disagree with their intent

your "way to subvert" them is to hire white coal miners and you think that's what Disney's purpose is in implementing these standards?

this is what you want, own it

Disney's purpose is irrelevant if a director can still hire who he wants.

Look at Loki. The leads are Tom Huddleston and Owen Wilson
Not exactly the epitome of diversity that people are freaking out that these guidelines require.

You guys wanna blame Kenobi sucking on the villain being a black chick rather than the villain sucking cuz of shitty writing..

They could've hired a white guy and it still would've sucked.

I'll say it for like the 3rd fricking time in this thread: it's not because she's black, it's because these guidelines dictated that it couldn't just be a Vader and Kenobi show

The character literally exists to fit these guidelines

The mandates in B1 of the chart might explain the shitty writing

Just ignore Adolf.

He’s being disingenuous and acting clueless because he supports the racism.

I normally check out of the Disney threads, but I love that this one has essentially turned into arguing whether or not Russians are Asians. Hadn't seen that one debated yet.
