You fukking moron, profits are the money that is made not the gross

even if the grosses are very close

Which is a better investment 40 million that turns into over 300 million profit

or 150 million that turns into 225 million

Again you're saying exactly what I already said and are arguing against it. You're an idiot.

these cacs are just trying to hide the truth and craft a narrative that blacks aren't profitable on the big screen which is false

No is saying anything about profits, that's your own strawman argument that you're having with yourself. I stand behind what I said and supported it only to argue for no reason because it makes you feel like you're doing something.

You nikkas love thinking everyone hates us

Stop deflecting the blame from whites

Another non-black. Where do yaw come from?

Master Teacher beating your ass in this debate, try to make a sound argument in your post first instead of quoting me.

Lol at the nerve of you saying I'm not Black yet here you are making a thread about what Bill Maher said and believing he's right.

Black people are in trouble when it comes to the film and tv business.

We are demographically shrinking in comparison to other minority groups. Already surpassed by hispanics and Asians/Middle Easteners are growing as well. Cacs continue to be as evil as ever.

I imagine that in...20 or 30 years...it'll be *extremely* rare to see a black person in a movie or on tv (Even moreso than it is now).

That is...unless we form our own shyt. But I guess that's too separatist and "militant" for some.

I don't think they will ever stop casting blacks. At least blacks in stereotypical roles. It accomplishes multiple things. Mentally these slave movies make non strong minded blacks feel powerless and give whites a false sense of power. It also gives other minorities a false sense of power because they can think "well at least I'm not black".

From a business standpoint though blacks only make up 12-13% of the population, movies with black actors outsell those of any other minority on average. Since there still is profit the movies will still be made.

Getting caught up in these awards is a losing game though. Begging for acceptance you instantly lose power. I would rather all these actors complaining about awards put their money together and put out their own movies.

You make a great point, particularly in the first paragraph.

I feel like we know one thing : These people fukking hate us, more than we can imagine.

After that, it's just a matter of, do they want to 1) Continue to push out propaganda that has a negative effect on us, or 2) Just marginalize us to the point where it's like we don't exist.

Like I said, I most think these people just want us gone from the public eye as much as possible....but you're probably right, there will always be room for some fukkshyt.

Either way, I still feel like our best days our behind us, less we get our act together (And this goes for more than just entertainment).

If that were true he wouldn't be using an alias/called for backup. Using a strawman is far from winning a debate. In fact, how can you debate (let alone beat) someone on a subject you agreed with?

Lol at the nerve of you saying I'm not Black yet here you are making a thread about what Bill Maher said and believing he's right.

You clearly aren't.
