No, I would not. Also, back in 2000, most films were written and cast with the story and action in mind, rather than just serving as a backdrop or vehicle for the display of as much diversity and wokeness as possible.
Also note how the checklist expanded from
- showcase at least one non-white person
- showcase at least one queer person
to
- showcase at least one black, hispanic and asian person
- showcase at least one gay, lesbian, trans and non-binary person
- showcase at least one sympathetic migrant or refugee figure
- contain at least 3 scenes or subplots in which an old white man is a bigoted asshole
- female and non-binary characters must be strong, independent, and get to own a male character
- there must not exist any physical feat a man can do that a tiny, 100lbs woman cant do just as well
- contain at least one non-traditional family structure, preferably a male lead taking on a father role for a kid which is not his own
- showcase at least one interracial couple
it's funny. when your fellow right wing morons and neo-nazis attack synagogues, murder politicians they consider too 'woke', or form terrorist organisations, you remain quiet. not a single post on that here.
but when ONE movie checks too many diversity boxes, you act like it's the fall of western culture, some dangerous phenomenon you simply HAVE to push back against.
yeah right, it's this movie, that you falsely and ridiculously elevated to representative of current television (as opposed to the extremely high quality entertainment that german studios had previously been so famous for, right?), that aims to "undermine social cohesion" and "divide" the country - not people constantly discriminating against those who look, love, or pray different than you and your ilk...
you truly are the usain bolt of mental gymnastics...
