You have "fuck communism" in you profile. So you're a capitalist? Yet you are upset at private companies using strategies to gain as much advantage as they can in the free market? 🤔

Go research what Hollywood did in the 30s to keep the German audience while Nazis were in power, then tell me how using a fucking Chinese character to appeal to a Chinese customer base is such a big deal.

using removal of a non-chinese character, to appeal to the Chinese overseeing board's demands while domestically having manifessed a fake persona which would condemn any such request were it coming from any other country film distribution overseeing board.

Donde esta el hombre negro?

one could just as easily look at this from the alternate perspective. They could say that the inclusion of the black character on the Western poster was "coerced" and "unnatural" and evidence of Hollywood pandering to an segment of the audience that glorifies the virtue signaling of diversity.

But everyone thinks of their way as being the "default" and whenever things are presented differently, those other ways are the "unnatural changes"

Out of all the fucked up shit in/with China possible racist motives with movie posters are the least of people's worries.

This might be the dumbest thing you’ve ever posted, and that’s saying something.

facts are dumb to you because you are a mentally castrated imbecile

I wonder what it’s like to go through life this outraged by absolutely everything.

It’s sad, since you know that once someone reaches this level of delusion, that they’re completely unreachable. While the irony of him being exactly what he claims to hate in the world, is fucking hilarious, I still can’t help but to pity people like this guy. Just wish he’d get the help he clearly needs, but I doubt anyone can stomach being around the guy IRL, or he’s gone the vacuum route to keep that fragile superiority complex intact.



This new era of overly sensitive and constantly triggered individuals had two sides, but they’re the exact same. While he cries about liberal, the hypocrisy of Hollywood elites or whatever irrelevant buzz topic of the week he’s chosen to be outraged by, the idiots on the other side are doing the same exact shit, almost over equally pointless nonsense.

Someone caring this much over something this inconsequential is a pretty damning indicator of serious mental illness.

There’s plenty wrong with China, and they shouldn’t be trusted (to be fair, neither should any major power), but I can’t even fathom the amount of dumb fuck juice you’d have to drink to care about this, or to not see how it’s a sensible decision. I mean shit, they made her character completely fucking irrelevant compared to what it was in the book, so why wouldn’t you switch her out for one that actually does something, who also happens to be Chinese….. shit is utter nonsense
