People should stop liking Nicolas Cage ,he's just another creepy famous white guy obsessed with Asian women.also Danny Devito is a better actor than he is

Look I feel you friend I know that Cage is an overrated actor. And Danny Devito is an excellent actor that can handle comedy and drama. HOWEVER, if I get more asks like this I'm gonna delete. You didn't even bother to mention an actor of color that's the same caliber as Cage and Devito.

I'll get started

Jefferey Wright

Idris Elba

Steven Yuen

John Cho

The problem with Elizabeth Olsen and not Chris Hemsworth or Chadwick Boseman is the later two are the same race as their characters but Elizabeth Olsen isn’t. It would be like casting a white actress to play Storm and a Latina actress to play Jubilee

Example #18 of Selective Wokeness: People justify the existence of "race" to further their own victim narrative, then don't even know how to apply it to others, because, oh right, "race" is a racist paradigm that has no actual meaning in real life and, oh, also, they don't give a shit about learning about the ethnic diversity of others.

I think that my absolutely favorite part of this entire conversation has been the continued avoidance of any person to name what "race" Romani belong to, but they've got a lot to say about them not being white.

Because you decided you aren't related to your Indo-European cousins, but indigenous Europeans and non-Aryan, Mongolian Europeans are both white because... Fuck understanding the ethnic diversity of Europe... Or Africa and Asia, it seems...

There will be no selective progressivism.

No compartmentalized wokeness.

No limited-time-only empathy.

I asked for a South African Zulu or Xhosa Black Panther cast fancast. I didn't ask if you thought it was necessary.

I asked for a Jewish Moon Knight fancast. I didn't ask if you thought it was necessary.

I asked for a Scandinavian fancast of Loki, Thor, Odin, Heimdall, Valkyrie (omg, black people? Doesn't that break your "cast as the same race" rule?). I didn't ask if you thought it was necessary. (You really think you get to decide that native Scandinavians and Uralic people [who the UN legally protects in the same group as native Americans, South American tribes, and the Ainu of Japan] can't be discriminated against - even though they and Inuits are THE voice of indigenous Artic People's human rights - BECAUSE their gods have been culturally appropriated and whitewashed for centuries? Defending against cultural appropriation has an expiration date?! So it's not an issue when Marvel casts blond, English Chris Hemsworth doing an English accent as their red-headed God? You know redheads, right? That genetic marker "white people" have demonized for centuries, BECAUSE it was hair color of indigenous native Europeans who were worshipping their indigenous native gods for centuries in their indigenous native homelands? And then when those same "white people" converted to Christianity, they just switched to a religious connotation, calling red hair the mark of a Devil. Yeah, that red hair? Tell me MORE about how you don't think we need to respect the history of the people who were burned at the stake or boiled alive slowly so that they'd have enough time before their deaths to turn from their red-headed God and accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.)

I asked for an East African (Somalian, Rwandan, Kenyan, godforbid Ethiopian) Storm fancast. I didn't ask if you thought it was necessary. You think it's wrong for me to fancast Doctor Doom with a Spaniard because you consider an ethnicity made up of Arab, Jewish, Visigoth, and Basque as "white" and "Romani aren't white"...?But Halle Berry, a half-white American who did nothing culturally significant in her performance of her East African Goddess-Queen character ISN'T classist, colorist, and racist negligence because "a Black actor played a Black character."

Also, a Latina COULD play Jubilee because there are millions of Chinese Latinas. AND bringing up Jubilee just shows you can't recognize Southeast Asians when you see them, so you didn't know, nor care, that the X-Men movies casted a Vietnamese girl to play Chinese.

Because you CARE so much about culture of the actor shining through in the characters... As long as it's your ethnicity.

If Marvel is "problematic," it has been problematic since 1964.

You don't get to DECIDE Marvel suddenly became problematic the moment it affected your ethnicity.

I asked for an equally Jewish Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, and Magneto fancast. I'm sorry that your people are largely Christianity, Islam, or Hindu-based religion. Go find two Jewish Romani actors to play the Twins and stop playing that "we faced unique persecution" violin as if Hitler didn't throw you both into the fire. I didn't ask if you thought it was necessary.

If you feel you are owed more respect from the MCU and the fanbase, do the bare minimum and respect others. Because there will be NO selective progressivism. There will be no compartmentalized wokeness.

I wasn’t going to do this. But fuck it. I’m tired.

I’m tired of this huge, lingering backlash against certain actors, for minor strikes that aren’t even strikes.

Firstly, you misunderstood something that happened a while ago, and you’re eagerly calling it a strike. Did you see this proof with your own eyes, or did you pick up a rumor and ran it? Did you look at one screenshot, one clip, taken out of context, blown up? OR did you actively looked up what was going on? Did you look up the actual definition of words? Most importantly, did you take off your severely USA tinted glasses?

Also, this ‘one strike and done’ thing is a whole problem unto its own.

ALSO, I’ve seen these people actively been put on the same level as the terf wizard, HOW EVEN.

Lastly, have you noticed, that these are always, always, actors of color. So maybe, *maybe*, could it be posssible, that you just found a convenient leftist-appearing reason to hate on these people, and you’re rolling with it to feel better about yourself. Hells, you might not even realise this is what you’re doing.

And if you’re now saying ‘no! I swear! I hate him for legitimate reasons! This is a bad person because ONE THING and EVERYONE should know about this! How dare the fandom like him!’ Then please ask yourself: am I also cancelling the people who are *very* openly friends with this person, or do you like *those* well enough to conveniently ‘forget’ that they are openly supportive, openly BEST friends? Because as far as I can tell, anyone who so much as breathes positively about the terf wizard, gets, (rightly so!!!) the same negative treatment. But not here? Every time someone you like a lot goes ‘I love this actor, he’s my best friend’, you close your ears, ignore, move on?

So are you sure you’re not just looking for a convenient reason here? Like absolutely 100% sure? Or are we ready to check some biases, go back to the so called inciting incident, and re-examine some definitions here?

Nobody is perfect, this is absolutely true. But guess what? That includes you. That includes me. And I tremble for the day the world decides that my entire being should be judged on one thing, and one thing only.
