Fair enough about Jason. I'm not arguing for or on behalf of Jason. I am making my own points.

Remember:

I found that interesting as well. They are introducing the world of BP to their white audience as colonizers which seems to belie a certain bias against the material already. They seem to want to say "look racist fanboys, here's a character ya'll can relate to, come to see him be the chaotic element and stay for the BP stuff"

Think about it though. Even though Grass Skirts and Spears are used in Africa they have been used as racist totems and proxies to denigrate black people in the past. So even though they are an everyday reality, someone in the West can (if they choose) mean something entirely offensive in their use of these terms. Just as being Black is a fact of life, but someone can use the term black (even in isolation) in a racist way. Just as Blacks are generally poor(-er) most would object to having that thrown in your face on a regular basis irrespective of your personal view of being 'poor'. It is the intent in the offence primarily and the effect of the offence.

Words are not just words. They are meanings. Shake-a-spear said that "A thing is what it is not what we call it" and we would do well to remember that. Grass Skirts et-al may be facts of life but in the wrong hands they can be used as "offensive facts". See how quickly 'Pepe the Frog' has been fashioned into a perjorative.

A movie is not like life where the full picture is composed on a myriad of experiences to form a tapestry of nuance and experience. A film is cast in a die once (most of the time) and from that point on is an indelible message to the world. There is nothing wrong with showing blacks in Grass Skirts but there is something wrong with having a preponderance to show them in them knowing what we know about the shared cultural backdrop that we all share. And here we get onto the fact that skewed perception (even by a little) skews group phenomenon massively where the results of independent decisions are amalgamated at group level.

Likewise it is questionable to show the negative results of your actions in a positive light for you. A man might be poor and that might be a fact but Riefenstahl-esque imagery of this might be questionable if you are responsible for his poverty.

And finally remember what makes an insult an insult. An insult is a shared phenomenon.

Remember Tin Tin and Tarzan. Remember the role of white surrogates in those older tales of darker, dangerous regions on earth and ask why the MCU chose to open the trailer with two white surrogates. This IMO is the biggest sign that the MCU are NOT as blind to race as some would believe and that they will change their imagery to keep their audience (even the racists ones) on board.

Read this: Lead You Can Relate To - TV Tropes


Your Telling us something WE ALREADY KNOW INATELY!!! :laff:

Does it matter how the trailer opened with surrogates that are white people?!? :dahell: It's just a fictional story... Why can't we enjoy it your boxing at shadows and there is none... 2 minute trailer does not give you enough time to form a complete analysis of an ENTIRE movie no one has seen yet, you know how insane you sound?!:mindblown: Also if you have not read any Black Panther Story in your life how would I trust your judgement??? :dahell:

Good to see that we all are adept at recognising questionable things.

For what it is worth, it was nice meeting you.

Toodles.

It's as clear as day as they say. And on another topic altogether - as Ruckus once said, "just hide it in a book".

No one was siding with that comic book nerd. I don't even know who he is or to be bothered to find out.

Maybe you should actually read.

I read and listened. You seem a tad annoyed don't know why though...

JB was a little off about some things and people wanted to end him... pretend that his platform is nothing...

I see a whole bunch of defensive posts that leads me to believe some people here really feel like that comic book nerd that called in but don't want to admit it.

Why would you want to admit it anyway? Just lets me know you still a child in alot of ways.

bytchnikka Babble

When a man is engaging in the predominantly feminine behavior of ambivalent reasoning. Ambivalent meaning having strong, yet contradictory feelings about an issue. This ultimately manifests itself as hypocrisy. This is female logic. When men do it it's bytchnikka Babble.

Think CynthiaG when she was confronted by Tariq. Her ultimate response to the allegations was "I definitely did it but i actually didn't do it at all". :heh:

Like when Marlo told the security guard "You want it to be one way. But it's the other way"



A guy engaging in bytchnikka Babble wants it to be one way AND the other way :russ:

kirby and lee did not create black panther. the concept of panther came from all the strong african leaders of that time. all they did was put their name on the book. it does not mean they create black panther
