A leaked set photo from Disney’s live action Snow White movie has come out.



As expected, retarded right wingers are now SUPER upset about this children’s movie they haven’t seen.


I am sure they are freaking out about the skin and gender diversity.

I personally am surprised that they do not appear to actually be little people (though I guess they can use editing tricks to change this later). I thought this was a controversy now (using tall actors in roles that should naturally be played by little people and hence limiting job opportunities for little people.)


The left is the side obsessed with skin color. Heck lefties here said skin color should be a qualification to get into a selective college.




...


How on earth are legacy admissions affirmative action?

It’s not based on meeting an academic standard like having high testing scores or GPA.

Since historically top colleges have been disproportionately white over black, there will be disproportionately more white legacy admits than black ones. That makes it racist in favor of whites. And against blacks. Pretty simple to understand.

Weak argument. Not a reason to use skin color as a qualification. And few whites qualify so saying it is for whites is silly.

You asked "How on earth are legacy admissions affirmative action". What you're adding has nothing to do with what was claimed or said by anyone but you. No one is saying it excuses discrimination by race or that all whites benefit. Something doesn't have to have benefited all whites to be discrimination anyway. It can be a practice just limited to one place in time at a certain moment to be discrimination.

The point is it is not affirmative action for whites. Just a claim by a black supremacist who is upset that she is not getting her way. I wonder if she gets that sports scholarships benefit blacks more than whites. That there are many scholarships reserved for minorities but next to none reserved for whites.

She can go screw.

Disgusting Treasury Secretary Yellen can't stop bowing to Chinese Vice Premier after consuming four portions of jian shou suing psychedelic mushrooms in Beijing restaurant.

Vice Premier does not bow in return, signaling supremacy.

This happens often enough to put up signs, “Welcome “___ days since the last visitor gored”.

Quote:

The 47-year-old woman suffered “significant injuries to her chest and abdomen” and was flown by helicopter to a hospital, the park said. Her condition was not released in a statement Monday.
The woman, from Phoenix, walked away from the bison after she and the person she was with spotted two of the animals, the National Park Service said. One of the bison charged.

Zuckerberg is opening his company's AI to programmers to tinker with. I think the cat's out of bag on this one anyway.

Good or bad, humanity is going barreling down the technology highway full speed ahead to our destiny. Whatever that may be.
