Hypocrisy incarnate.
Bad Robot, the company that produced The Force Awakens and The Rise of Skywalker, recently tweeted out the following absurd virtue signal.
This is an actual document produced by Bad Robot, and presumably not satire.
Here’s the Table of Contents. Perhaps these brainiacs ought to add the word “glossary” to their vocabulary.
Most of it consists of links to worthless fringe left articles filled with the kind of garbage knowledge that they feed kids at university. But this is particularly interesting:
No. We are not, as a country, grappling with the result of hundreds of years of systemic racism and state-sanctioned violence against black people. Rather, what we are grappling with instead, is hundreds of years of systemic racism and state-sanctioned violence against black people from the Democratic Party, not as a country. You can read all about that here. And yes, that fully takes into account The Great Southern Strategy Switcheroo Myth.
But let’s go ahead and acknowledge history anyway. JJ Abram’s history. The white guy who demands an end to white comfort from the comfort of his own Palisades mansion.
This guy, who boldly stated to Metro:
Have you been doing more at Bad Robot to help solve this issue?
“Very much so. To see that women and people of color have been so systematically marginalized in the process of just being considered for jobs, let alone the hiring process. Many times they wouldn’t even been on the list for potential hiring.”
“One of the things that Katie, my wife, and I did at Bad Robot is start a process where our agency was asked to only give us lists that only represent the makeup of the country so we could see people who typically would not be there. Whether that’s people or women of color.”
“And it was fascinating how that began to change the conversation. It has been very important to us at Bad Robot, and something that I don’t feel remotely deserving of an award for.”
“Because I feel that on a fundamental humanistic level it is simply fair. And also on a business level it is simply smart for business. It is a benefit everyway that you look at it.”
And yet, he wasn’t the change he wanted to see. He never stepped aside from The Rise Of Skywalker to let a woman of color replace his own bleach white ass.
After all, JJ Abrams is the white guy who made his leading black character a mop wielding janitor, a throwback to tokenism and minstrelsy.
JJ Abrams is the white guy that put out a poster to appease the racist communists in China.
So Bad Robot, if you really want to fight white supremacy, then you need to start cleaning out your own house first, and fire JJ Abrams. Let’s be ultra crystal clear on that fact.
Doesn’t all this show that white SJWs like JJ aren’t serious about any of this, that they mouth a lot of anti-racism nonsense and then hire a token black guy like Boyega and consider their work done? If whoever they’re performing for falls for it, I can’t say I blame them.

“But the claims — perhaps worsened by public confusion over the structure of the organization, which we’ll explain later — are based on a distortion of facts regarding the nonprofit ActBlue, which provides fundraising infrastructure to Democratic campaigns and progressive organizations.”
Donations to Black Lives Matter Go to ‘ActBlue’ – The Activist Arm of the Democrat Party
https://www.redstate.com/elizabeth-vaughn/2020/06/12/854023/
“In “The Fine Print” section, it states that if a campaign or a committee doesn’t cash an ActBlue check within 60 days or a contribution is refused, the donation “will be re-designated as a contribution to ActBlue.” Those contributions “will be kept by ActBlue and used generally to support its social welfare activities.””

That’s easy, “white supremacy” is the belief that the white race is inherently superior to other races and therefore deserves to dominate them. Although historically what defines “white” is up for debate. Hispanics, for example, are technically white in that they’re of Spanish descent but because their skin is a little bit darker they’re treated as a different race. And of course Hitler believed in the supremacy of the blonde haired blue eyed Aryan race but ultimately believed that white people without one or both of those traits (ie most of us) were not of the superior race.
Is it exclusive to white people? White supremacy mostly is, but racial supremacy ideas do pop up in all races. For example the Black Hebrew Israelites are a black supremacist group that believes God gave the world to black men and only blacks are the chosen people.
LikeLike
So it is a belief. I can’t think of how I take advantage of other people’s beliefs to my own benefit.
“Although historically what defines “white” is up for debate.”
This currently is irrelevant. The division line has many of non-white appearance on the white side. (the reverse is true too..antifa..so look at the black people on the conservative side.. they fight with their words and their knowledge.. the whites on the other side fight with …um… action and mobs and hate.)
I find it interesting how the Heard/Depp relationship is a perfect reflection of the unrest right now. Heard is violent and righteous and Depp is passive and operating within the legal system.
Anyways, belief isn’t substance. If you look at Rwanda, the genocide (from my understanding) was brought about when the Belgians created a kind of caste system by dividing the non-diverse population based on arbitrary traits (to the point where they divided siblings) Creating an ‘us and them’ state. Again, all based on arbitrary traits.
So what I’m getting at is your definition has nothing to do with race of appearance. It is about belief. There are absolutely brilliant people of all …species… of humans. and there are apparently a lot of stupid ones too.
So regardless of your genetics, all you have to do to become part of the white supremacy problem, is to make changes to your beliefs.
There are plenty of POCs who think the way i do so you haven’t divided us on skin colour yet.

Less an important distinction to make for that reason and more so because of how evil people have periodically been trying to wipe them out since Haman in the Book of Esther, if not even earlier than that. We make the distinction so that good people will protect them from such violence.
We can disagree on this, but there needs to be reanalysis and readjustment of our vocabulary regarding race. I think a lot of the academic theories on it are geared more toward eventual revenge than actual equality (namely by selectively defining racism so that one group can never experience despite the fact they do, albeit less).

My thought is we finally just admit that there are several species of humans. Race is vague. The definition of racist has been bastardized to propagate and supercharge intersectional politics.
There is no way species can be warped the way binary gender has either. Species is measurable an cannot be changed every morning by depending on how you feel when you wake up. We’d have to use this carefully, because just like gun, it could do a lot of good, but it could do a lot of damage.
I would allow us to get out from under the thumb of the power dynamics that are included in the definition of race.
Being specist would apply equally to everyone.

If you want to prevent this, the best way ist through law, that prohibits discrimination and the ‘cancel culture’. Otherwise the moderate people who speak up will be discouraged by doing it, because of the fear of loosing a (lucrative) job.
But if you don’t act now you will loose everything. This people wont stop, unless there are legal consequences to their actions. And they have something to loose.

WHAT IS WHITE SUPREMACY?
The idea that white people and the ideas, thoughts, beliefs, and actions of white people are superior to people of color and their ideas, thoughts, beliefs, and actions. While most people associate white supremacy with extremist groups like the Ku Klux Klan and the neo-Nazis, white supremacy is ever present in our institutional and cultural assumptions that assign value, morality, goodness, and humanity to the white group while casting people and communities of color as worthless, immoral, bad, and inhuman and “undeserving.”
WHAT IS WHITE PRIVILEGE?
White privilege refers to the unquestioned and unearned set of advantages, entitlements, benefits and choices bestowed on people solely because they are white. Generally white people who experience such privilege do so without being conscious of it.
WHAT IS IMPLICIT BIAS?
Implicit biases are negative associations that people unknowingly hold. They are expressed automatically, without conscious awareness. Many studies have indicated that implicit biases affect individuals’ attitudes and actions, thus creating real-world implications, even though individuals may not even be aware that those biases exist within themselves.
WHAT IS SYSTEMIC RACISM?
Systemic racism is the complex interaction of culture, policy and institutions that holds in place the outcomes we see in our lives. We recommend watching these videos to learn more.
WHAT IS ANTI-RACISM?
Anti-racism is defined as the work of actively opposing racism by advocating for changes in political, economic, and social life. Anti-racism tends to be an individualized approach and set up in opposition to individual racist behaviors and impacts.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE AN ANTI-RACIST?
An anti-racist is someone who is supporting an antiracist policy through their actions or expressing antiracist ideas. This includes the expression or ideas that racial groups are equals and do not need developing and supporting policies that reduce racial inequity.
WHAT IS ANTI-BLACKNESS?
Anti-Blackness is a two-part formation that both voids Blackness of value, while systematically marginalizing Black people and their issues. The first form of anti-Blackness is overt racism. Beneath this anti-Black racism is the covert structural and systemic racism which categorically predetermines the socioeconomic status of Blacks in this country. The structure is held in place by anti-Black policies, institutions, and ideologies.
WHAT IS BLACK LIVES MATTER?
Black Lives Matter is an organized movement dedicated to non-violent civil disobedience in protest to police brutality. The movement’s message has expanded to include issues of racial inequity in education, housing, healthcare, employment and other areas where inequities may exist.

When the Pharaoh kept refusing to let the Isrealites go to worship their God, even after numerous plagues of increasing severity, God declared one final punishment to finally break the Pharaoh’s stubbornness (albeit only briefly). This last plague would be the death of the firstborn of every household, both human and animal. To protect themselves from this, Isrealites were to eat a sheep or goat that night, and paint their door posts with the animal’s blood. Either God or the death angel working in His stead would pass over such bloodied houses, leaving the occupants alone.
