I was curious so I found the article:
https://insidethemagic.net/2024/06/disney-executive-caught-saying-company-wont-hire-white-men-rl1/
The quote is exactly what normal people assume it is, out of context and not the entire quote.
For specific roles. That's pretty fcking obvious. You're not going to hire a white man to play the little mermaid.
Ironically if they did hire a white man to play The Little Mermaid, the hard right nutjobs would be screaming that it was part of a "woke trans agenda" to normalize crossdressing and eliminate the traditional American male from society lol
It’s not about the point. It’s bout how you can spin it.
So, you're saying they're sexist and racist, and we should all be enraged and immediately donate to our favourite bigots?
I'm buying a ton of Disney stuff right now to throw on the bonfire tonight.
There are valid reasons for hating on Disney though.. like what they've done to Star Wars.
Agreed. Want to add that (in my opinion, at least) Lucas's Episodes I, II & III didn't do the series any favors either. :-(
They expanded on the world building and action superbly, but Lucas isn't a people person, and it shows
Or the fact that they donate a shit ton of money to conservative politicians.
Personally, I would love to see the little mermaid played by a big, burly man.
Terry Crewes would be perfect for the role
Then what kind of absolute unit can even be cast for daddy Tritron?
Tritron obviously will be a femboy
Finally, roles opening up for me 😳
Watch Disney cast the rock 🙃
🎶 You’re not going to hire a white man to play the little mermaid. 🎶
“No way in hell are we hiring a white man to play miles morales”
Furthering that, they use the word agent. Specifically referring actors.
Lots of writers and other crew have agents. It's not clear from the article if that's what's being referred to though.
Sure, but they also said role. Which can just mean job position, is more commonly used for casted actors.
