I Am Not Your Negro : Disturbed by the racism on here

Disturbed by the racism on here

Every time there's a movie that comes out that simply sheds light on the black experience in America, racists flood its message boards. Amazingly, these people actually prove the filmmakers point.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

You don't expect Bigots to be reasonable do you?

Wake up, Time to DIE.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

I can't say I'm disturbed by it. That's probably because I've been online 23 years this year and I've seen it all. For better or worse, the internet has allowed a platform for all people, and that includes even the dumbest and the worst among us.



Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

That could be the smartest thing I have read in a long time.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

Agreed.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

I wish IMDb would start allowing people to thumbs up or like comments. (Because I'd like yours)

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

I swear that some of the worst people in the world, for whatever reason, like to hang around the IMDB boards.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

That's a real shame because it's supposed to be a place for discussion of movies which is something of a positive thing. It's not supposed to know racial or ethnic or religious barriers.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

Some common sense for once! It disturbs me too, although like another commenter nothing much surprises me on these message boards anymore.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

When people can be anonymous they feel like they can say or do whatever they want with no consequences. I feel like a majority of these people would never act like that in real life.

I am a God

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

Anonymous, exactly. it's like hiding under a white hood.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

Just look at the ratings for this film:

Rotten Tomatoes: 96%
Metacritic: 97%

IMDB user ratings: 4.9/10 as of right now

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

Oooh please, did actually think that critics would dare to give a documentary with this subject a bad review? Potentially career suicide.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

Or maybe it's an objectively good documentary to everyone who isn't experiencing white fragility. Black doc doesn't automatically mean praise from critics.

Oh, get real. If the movie sucked, the critics would say so. It sure as heck isn't going to get good reviews for the hell of it. You're the one making these stupid assumptions about it because of the subject matter, and obviously you haven't even seen it.

Riiiiight. Did you see what happened with the Ghostbusters reboot? Awful movie, got great reviews from critics because "strong female leads blargh blargh blargh". Richard Roeper gave it an honest review and was attacked mercilessly by SJW's. I can only imagine what would happen if somebody gave this movie a bad review. They'd suddenly be an "alt-right, white supremacist, neo nazi, bigoted trump supporter" or whatever vitriol you idiots like to spew right now.

Avatar is great

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

Agreed. It's almost impossible to go to the message board of any movie dealing with American history and not see racism and bigotry littered throughout. Disliking the content of the history of this country doesn't change the fact that it occurred, and these stories should be told. I'm disappointed that I had not heard of James Baldwin until this movie.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

And yet there exists those that detest Black History Month which is nothing more than American History.

One more thing. Some of the posters freely providing their "Opinions" through intellectual dishonesty on these forums are not exclusively from America.

I can give you the one thing that even the great Galactus needs!

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

Good point, a lot of Europeans like to give their opinion on American racism, which is funny given Europe's colonial history. But hey, everyone's sh!t stinks but some smell worse than others.

I'm like a smart person.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

^ truth

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

What exactly is explicitly racist on these boards? Let me guess: an opinion that doesn't fall right in line with the popular narrative?

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

Facts cannot be racist. Only racists would deny something to be racist even if it's cleary racist. Thats because racists confuse their bigotry with facts. They believe they are stating facts when they really just being racist.

So I think I might have an idea to why you're disagreeing with pretty much everyone on this thread.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

That's because nobody cares.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

Awww special wittle snowflake. Do ums feel special for feeling disturbed? Aww so special and superior!

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

Yea they're f^cking idiots. That's how we ended up with Trump. The electoral college is a relic of the slaveholding days that will be abolished in the near future.

Whatever you are, be a good one.

Re: Disturbed by the racism on here

^ this pretty much.
